Simplified scenario...
2 Windows computers using a VFP9 SP2 application, served by 1 MySQL
(MariaDB) server on Linux box
What is the best way for computer #1 to "do something" and have computer
#2 detect that change?
(for example, save a new record on the server for a processed shipment)
What my feeble mind has thought of so far...
-- #2 uses a timer to query the server for changes (lotsa traffic!
especially with dozens of workstations)
-- #1 'signals' #2 somehow using Windows API (never done anything like this)
-- a better way I'm oblivious to (no surprise!)
Is there a better way?
