Hi Tim, I've put the TCP CAT server and vSound projects on hold until the development starts on the 1.5.x code. I added the TCP server to one of the early 1.4.x releases to do testing (it worked well with multiple 3rd party apps) but because of the monolithic nature of the 1.4.x code and the lack of CVS or SVN it was too time consuming to have to go back and add the code to each 1.4.x release after that. I may wait until the final changes to the 1.4.5 code comes out and offer an unofficial version on my webpage to give people the capability to use the TCP CAT server. I know that Flex wants to have the stable 1.4.5 version out. New features (besides the new AGC code and TX code) are frozen so it can be completely debugged. Adding the TCP server capability to the official code would be too risky since it will probably add more things to debug. Hopefully with the modular 1.5.x code it will be easy for developers to add this kind of functionality without having to have the code compiled into the main console project like the monolithic 1.4.x and previous versions code. Or maybe we will have CVS or SVN to ease the burden on Eric...
In the testing I did with the TCP CAT enabled PowerSDR I was able to have HRD controlling the radio and MixW and a logger program updating with the new settings sent to the PowerSDR console by HRD. I limited the number of concurrent TCP connections to 10 in the code. It was pretty cool to have multiple 3rd party apps all running at the same time. 73 de Phil N8VB On 9/14/05, Tim Ellison <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Phil, > > Any update on the TCP CAT server and Serial to TCP bridge project?
