RE: GUI Hub Question

[Sullivan, Glenn]

Frankly, I haven't peered under the hood of xFx yet... so the comments
would
have escaped me. I did my testing yesterday (while sick in bed) with
VS2002, but could not get it to run until this morning when I got to work
where I have VS2003. So I was really doing more work on the actual serial
data than the xAP data until about 5 hours ago...

But I was really only referring to the comments made earlier about
UKHA2004.
Wish I has unlimited money and time to get over for that...

I hadn't thought of remote configuration. I guess that would include HB
Interval, and UID in my case. Not much else, ATM.

Thanks again. I'll grab the source now and go through it.

No reason why it can't stay Hub disconnected. My own (older) CID app
doesn't connect either, and as you've seen James' News apps don't
connect.

However, if you later wanted to support remote configuration you'd
need a listener of some kind. Not a big change to add one in by any
means.

True, plus you'll save a bit of time hunting for one as I hunt from
the nearby sockets to the xAP port, which got suggested ages ago as I
recall.

Ah, I have a forthcoming plan for that. You'll notice that there's a
reasonable level of comments throughout the xFx code? Whilst I
probably need to improve this in many cases, it's a good starting
point.

I've not had much call for xFx Coding HowTo's yet, but I do try to
improve the code when I get queries or even better, bug reports.
