web server

[CodeMonkey]

What do I need to know to give it a try? I have a simple 'hello world' app that should work.

If its enabled, you can visit http://localhost:7647/gbpvr/index.html. File become automatically available if you place them in the c:\program files\devnz\gbpvr\web directory.

While the webserver functionality is in place, I add some APIs for querying channels and programmes. It might be worth planning out what sort API calls you'd like, what parameters they'd take, and what they'd return. Let me know and I'll add them. This is probably better in the long run than accessing the database.

You can certainly start design pages etc, even if the data is just mocked up for now.

For those want to know how to use Apache as your server, I suggest you read the following on proxy pass http://www.codeproject.com/aspnet/cassin...he_101.asp

Do you want executable (.NET .exe files as opposed to .html) files in the same place, or in something like a cgi directory?

Or maybe in plugins/web makes sense in my case.

I'd prefer using .aspx and any classes you'd like to use as .DLL file in c:\program files\devnz\gbpvr\web\bin.

I was just going to do a C# .NET app and start it from html. Not OK?

[sub]

No, preferrably use .aspx file and classes in DLLs. Running CGI executables is prehistoric - sorry.

Basically aspx is just C# (in our case) wrapped in HTML. So OK, I have no problem with that
