Hi,
I thought about using a file, but the problem is that database app
has to send progress updates quite often and since it's accessing the
disk heavily anyway (building the SQLite database from input files)
it would slow the whole process down.
If I use sockets and an addres of 127.0.0.1:6000 could this cause a
problem with anti-virus and firewall software?
Thanks a lot
All the Best
Dave

I have an application that periodically creates or updates an SQLite
database (actually there are lots of databases (separate SQLite
files), but only one is worked on at a time) and then sends the
results to the server. This process can take upwards of 15
minutes to
complete. In the meantime I want to be able to still use the
application to do other things (such as create playlists in iTunes).

I'd use sockets, or polling for a file. While polling a file's

can eat some cycles, polling for the existence of a file is pretty

fast. Given the scenario you describe, where you're not really
expecting a result for several minutes, you could probably get
away with
polling for a file every few seconds. Cheap, simple, reasonably
efficient.
