Here are some other infos: client1 is on 1st machine and client2 on a second machine, both connected through the Web with the server. client2 is just a Perl script that needs to get the data, process it and display results in a simple Tk window. Yesterday I implemented my naive solution:
- server writes in file what it receives from client1
- client2 reads every x-time file from server by means of GET
Of course it works, but even if I am at a beginner in client-server solutions, I know this is not the way to do it. I'll start having a look at "ajax type async communication" and what can I do in Perl.
