Wingz.sleep.problem
Posted in 1992
Hi, We are users of Wingz/DataLink. In my application I need to poll database (awaiting triggers !!) every 3 mins. My choices are: 1. "wait" command from hyperscript OR 2. calling external C-function which includes sleep() call Problem with solution # 1 is that WAIT is synchronous and I am really hogging CPU while WAITing. Problem with solution # 2 is that entire WINGZ application falls a-sleep() My keyboard too is disabled ! It has been proposed that we move to real-time Wingz and/or await OnLine version 5.10. Real-time Wingz seems like an over kill & 5.10 is somewhat of a distant happening for SCO users! Help me, Bharat.
