"Pause" functionality for the server |

Alfred Ghazzi | Hi Tim
I have a suggestion regrading the server. I always customize the server application for clients. They feel great when the server is "their server" Anyway, previously, I always used to update the source code of the server application and many other objects like the engine and related objects such as the server sessions etc... to extend their functionality. Mainly: 1. Add a layer of communication between a remote session and the server. I found in the Product Map that this functionality is already listed (but unfortunately, no version has been scheduled). Never mind. I'll wait for it... 2. A "Pause" state for the server. The server has Start, Pause, and Stop functions. I used the setting "Deny login" (I do not remeber the name exactly) to implement the pause function. This "Paused" state is very useful for the administrator when he/she wants to do some work on the server (like run jobs or replace database, etc...) which send a message to the users that the server will be "offline in 1 hour" and in the same time deny login to other users with a message such as ("The server is offline for 2 hours for maintenanace")... I wish you can add this one too to your list. They both are kind of related and extend the capabilities of the product to develop excellent servers. By the way I stopped doing these changes. Imagine rewriting or copy and paste with each update Kind Regards Alfred Ghazzi |

<< I wish you can add this one too to your list.

DBISAM had some issues with adding this functionality due to its architecture. -- Tim Young Elevate Software www.elevatesoft.com |
