LongRange Developer Forum

When the file data on server is updated, I'd like to update the data on client screen.
(It's like performing F5=refresh automatically on IE)

An event can't be sent from server to client.
So I'd like to send the event from client to server automatically at regular intervals.
without any user actions such as sending command or button click.

If anyone has experience to achieve this, please let me know.

There isn't anything in LongRange that can do this currently. LongRange is not really designed to work like that.

Could you explain a little more about what you are trying to achieve with your app? Someone may have other suggestions to help you.

Thanks. It's enough to reply to the customer.

You can send them an email message.

The email can contain a longrange:// formatted URL that opens (or wakes) up LongRange and causes it to run the program which would display the refreshed data.

This is not appropriate for all situations - but it is quick and simple way to ‘push’ a ‘something has changed’ event out to a mobile device user.
It is an approach commonly used by many applications so users are used to it.

The shipped LongRange-RPG demonstration system has several working examples of this.
