Guys & Girls - I am going crazy here.
I have a RemObjects service application. (RO)
RO communicates with an external app via a TCP connection. When the
external app recieves a message it opens a GUI and then responds to the
messages over the same connection. So I use a TClientSocket in ctBlocking
mode.
As usual, I wrote a Project1 test app to get the basics correct before
moving the code into my service.
All is well in Project one, but in the service it does not work.
If I make a requst to the service it just hanges. However, if I then stop
the service, I see that the external app is launched as it should have been.
What the hell am I missing. This is sending me crazy.
I have tried all different kinds of ways of doing it, using threads etc but
with no joy.
Surely I am not the only person to ever to use TClientSocket in a service.
Please please please help.
Best regards
DC
