Hi Osa,
The Host program makes use of a number of accessories. Some are listed as "required" - some are "recommended" (ie somewhat optional.)
>> Selfservice - 149
you can remove this if you like. It means the program cannot be run as a service - or you will need to use some other tool to make it into a service. Services are nice in that they run if no-one is logged in (which is good for servers) but it's still possible to run the web server as an exe if you have complete control of the actual server machine.
>> WinEvent - 149
This is required. the way the Host loads the DLL's at runtime makes use of some internals in the WinEvent library. It's quite a tricky bit of code, and not something I'd recommend trying to replace.
>> GPFReport - 149
you can remove this, but if you do you lose the ability for the server to automatically restart on a GPF. Especially if the GPF is caused by a DLL. So if you remove this you'll need to keep a close watch on the server, and compile things very carefully to keep them all in sync.
>> HyperActive - 49
Used by GPF Reporter.
>> MessageBox - 77
This can also be removed - but any MESSAGE statement will "lock" a thread. Obviously there are MESSAGE statements in the Clarion library itself, so if you leave this out be sure to keep an eye on the server, and also try and make sure (as much as possible) that no messages appear in your program.
>> FileManager - 349
you can leave it out, but the file structures for the Host do change from time to time. Obviously with Fm3 in deployment is a lot faster, but if you leave it out it's not impossible to convert the files by hand (ie in the IDE) between releases.
>> Insight Graphig - 497
This is used by the log windows, and can be removed if you like.
cheers
Bruce
