Autogenerate reply or ServerProc generated message............

Hello,

I got my sample application to work that I am building my proof of concept out of. I need to be able to auto generate a reply message that would normally be in the run routine. The only way I see to do this is pull it from a table but I do not want to do that. I have tried tests where I change the code to see if I can send a message back but I have to reinstall the assembly into the database which is not what I am looking for. I am looking for a way to change the message by either accessing the GUI and getting the string, calling another function to do this, or something like that. I want it so I can change the code in the run routine in VS 2005 but this does not work. I am sure their is a trick to do this but am not sure what that trick is. What is a good way to do this other than accessing a table in the database?

Thanks,

What do you mean by auto-generate a reply? A reply could either be static (i.e. independent of the request and state), a stateless (i.e. dependent only on the request) or stateful (i.e. dependent on both the request as well as some state... the state would normally be stored in the database, but may also be stored separately). I cannot see why you need to recompile and redeploy your app to meet any of the above patterns.

Hello Rushi,

It calls the ServiceProc in my code and that is loaded into the database. I am writing this for applications that will need to report the status of a current event. If this is not stored in the database then they would not want to write anything to the database. This means they will get the request then need to reply to that request with a text message that they generate. In the worst case situation it can come from the database but would rather just be retrieved from a function call. It seems as though from your message this can be done so I am sure I have a setting incorrect. What I have is currently static and I want the response dependent on the request. What I meant from Autogenerated is retrieved from another assembly or another part of that service.

Hello Rushi,

This is a remote system and will not be able to deploy all of the assemblies to the database. It consists of several services and needs dynamic access to what the message. Are you telling me that the only way to get a dynamic message is to write it to a database and have the ServiceProc read it? This is a draw back beacuse it will slow things down but I want to make sure before I tell people that they have to do that.
