[icf-dev] Appserver question

Posted by LegacyUser on 21-Oct-2002 08:01

Hi All,

I have the following question regarding starting Async procedures on an

Appserver.

Is it possible to start an second (and third...) async procedure while the

first started async procedure

still runs on the Appserver ?

I have been testing this and it seems that

the Progress-client which starts the async procedures

gets queued when it tries to start the second procedure

while the first one is still running.

(My appserver is configured as state-less)

Can anybody confirm my findings?

Martin.

Hi Martin,

That is how async works. The calls are queued up and executed

one after the other. The "async" part means that your 4GL client

is not locked up waiting for the appserver to finish executing

a program, not that the appserver will execute multiple 4GL

programs at the same time.

Hi Brian,

Thanks for the answer, but it does not

sound really async.!

Hi Martin.

If you want to execute two processes at the same time you should fire

these processes in diferent appserver brokers.

See kbase# 20801 to get a brief explanation of how the queue processes

works.

You are right, this is not really async, you can use more than one 4GL

session and executed one procedure in each session
