I agree with your understanding of those words. What do you need to do you with the information in the callback? A C# WebAPI self-hosted project could be setup to handle it. A php or python project could be setup as well.
I just need to get the returning xml data to the database server, parse it, and apply to the data set.
Now that a web server is definitely involved, it actually becomes simpler. I should still be able to push the initial request from VFP as before and get the initial "rejected/pending" response back.
Our web guy can write the PHP "listener" on our separate web server, and anything that comes back will be dumped to a table in a database on our data server. (The web server already has working access to the data server, so that's not a problem)
I'd modify the program to set a flag if a request was sent, then start a timer to check the database if the flag is set.
The other option, if we find it easier, is to dust off the old WAMP server that used to run the website, and is still on the data server, set it to only accept data from the one IP address, and just run the listener on that.
In any event, I think things just got a little easier. :-) _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[email protected] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
