Hi there,

is there a possibility in DBISAM to send messages from the server to the client? Our "database server" is more than just a database-server, it can check for new emails. When it checks the mails and there are new ones it would be great, if i could send a
string or integer to all clients, which are already connected to the DBISAM-server, so that there's no need to use a separate port for a indy-component or so...

I tried out the "SendProcedureProgress" method, but therefor I've listet all the sessions of the DB-engine, but the documentation says I can only use the "sessions" property in a client-DBISAMEngine component. So I think, the SendProcedureProgress-
method is only valid inside of a "OnServerProcedure" event.

So, is there a possibility to send a message to all connected clients without starting a procedure or so at client-side?

Thanks in advance,

best regards
Robert Wismet

It isn't possible right now, but it is on our list of items to address.
We'll most likely provide this feature for both DBISAM and EDB once it is
actually coded.
