Btw ... adding a DataProvider to the existing RTC WebServer to use ISAPI
DLL's (the same way it now uses PHP5 API to execute PHP scripts) isn't
really a problem, anyone who knows how to call ISAPI could implement this in
a couple of hours. But before I do this, I'd like to be able to write ISAPI
DLLs, not only to use them. So, I've just started implementing the ISAPI
support for RTC. When I'm finished, the existing RTC WebServer (downloadable
from www.realthinclient.com) will be capable of using external ISAPI DLLs.
Also, RTC Core can then be used for writing one code that can be compiled as
a stand-alone webserver (this is what it does now) and ISAPI DLL. This way,
when using RTC components, you will have one implementation which can be
easily debuged in Delphi by compiling it as a stand-alone webserver. And
once it's working right, you can deploy it either as a stand-alone webserver
or in form of an ISAPI DLL. If I don't encounter any unexpected problems
with ISAPI, first ISAPI-compatible RTC omponents should be ready by the end
of this week.
