Brook embedded web server and forms in windows? about brookframework HOT 8 CLOSED

I wouldn't use either (except the console one for debugging), but rather install the server as a service/daemon. It's damn easy anyway, just add 1 unit to broker's uses clause.

@Lele what unit to add?

@michaelvanham
If you really need to run Brook server alongside with forms in Windows, you should place the whole Brook application in separate thread. There is no way to combine this functionality in single-threaded application. Handling of Windows messages requires one closed loop, while handling of server requests needs another loop, and both are blocking.

@kodok-buncit, use the menu "File | New ... | Brook framework > Embedded daemon server". And in a terminal (as super user), run:

myapp -i

It runs your web server as daemon, without the ugly black window.

Can I close this issue friends?

Works great as a service.

For future readers: if you already have a Brook app setup to use the built in webserver, you can change it to operate as service by simply removing brookfclhttpappbroker from the uses clause, and adding brookfclhttpdaemonbroker instead.

Thanks everyone.
