Hi all

This isn't specifically a Delphi question, but since someone asked about
batch files the other day, I figured its worth a shot.

I'm thinking about writing a TCP/IP server app to receive streamed files and
then process them on the server machine with another app and return a
results file. The problem is, files can come in from multiple clients at
random time intervals (natrually) and I want to be able to queue them up, so
they get processed sequentially by my other app.

I can easily queue any number of files in a batch file, so they are handled
sequentially, if I have all the filenames in hand. However, in this case the
files just keep coming in during the day and I don't want to start the next
file being processed until my other app has finished running its current
task. So a batch file doesn't help me. Anyone got any ideas about how I
could accomplish this?

Todd.
