Premise jQuery Mobile MiniBrowser UI - Preview

[integrate]

I am curious about this too as one of Premise's creators (JimSpr) says this is possible in post #7 of this thread:
http://cocoontech.co...ad-syslightzip/

You could try contacting him; his name and one of his past employers are in this thread:
http://cocoontech.co...silverlight-ui/

I don't know if Jim uses linkedin, but it's worth a shot. Another knowledgeable person, and a very nice guy too, is Damon Dean. He owns an integration company now and can be reached via contact info found on http://www.digital-residence.com . I don't think Damon or Jim monitor these forums, but I could be wrong.

 
Geez I wish I had the time to keep up with you guys.  Glad to see Premise is still alive, at least for a few.  Did you guys see #6 of the CEPro article: http://www.cepro.com/article/10_technologies_way_ahead_of_their_time/
 
Reminiscing.

Welcome back Damon!  Are you still using Premise for your home?
 
PS: Can you provide technical details (port, protocol, etc...) on the subscription mechanism the Automation Browser uses?  JimSpr is such a tease!

...Regarding polling -- I am hoping to not do that and actually implement the back channel subscription mechanism that the AutomationBrowser uses. ...

I didn't think that would be possible but I'm delighted to hear that there may be a way of doing it. 

The whole concept of "subscriptions" is predicated on the client's ability to receive events transmitted by the server. I always thought the "SYSBridge" ActiveX component maintained an open socket with the SYS server so that the IE browser could receive status updates from the SYS server. I'm no web expert but aren't existing web protocols 'stateless' and data-exchange is initiated by the client (i.e. "pulled") as opposed to the server (i.e. "pushed")?

I know just enough to be dangerous! Can you elaborate on your strategy?

Yes it does keep the socket open and that is what I will need to implement as well. Silverlight provides basic network/socket support that I can use."

Damon - I did see that article.  And I agree completely.  It was truly ahead of it's time.  When I think how long it's been since it was killed, I am even more amazed.
