@Tim: Thanks for the latest release - many new feature that we were all
wating for...

@All:
Just out of interest: which priority has SSL support of Tim's webserver
for you? For me it's very important because I have to use ssl
connections for nearly every application.

Since there is no ssl support right now, I wrote my own webserver using
the Indy components - but (as Tim knows Smile): I would prefer to use his
stable and reliable webserver.

I am using the RemObjects SDK to make my web server. They have instructions
and support on making it SSL capable, and it is working well for me. It
doesn't have the "native Elevate Software" database access, but then I
don't think I'd ever expose the database on a public interface anyway
(security risk). By providing a javascript compatible interface, I can
ensure that the remote client is authorised, and can only do operations I
approve. Plus I can change the database access code more easily with a
single server update.

But maybe the Elevate web server is more capable than I am aware - I've
never used it for database stuff, only for the debug mode.

Uli,

See this post for some alternatives : STunnel short term or Tim
mentioning passthru adapter (since you wrote your own back-end already
it might be worthwhile checking out).

In my case i'm sticking to own webserver (also Indy based) since i
already wrote it and it is used for some other back-end duties as well.

I had a look into this, but it seems as if the Elevate Web Builder
Modules can only be applied with > Delphi XE. I am using Delphi 2010 Frown

So I'll have to keep my own server anyway.
