No. For now I am not considering cloud anymore. At least not aws, s3 and such.
But, if someday someone would make a special app that would take cw desktop app and create application part of the server (webservices) and convert cw app into client app that works with mentioned server app, I would pay really good money for it.
Now THAT would be a winner.
Hi Bostjan - How does that requirement differ from Anyscreen?
Well, Anyscreen is ârunningâ in a web browser, it has server licensing etc
What I meant is that the desktop app remains a desktop app, not just by the looks of it. It would get a âweb driverâ in a way, âconvertingâ file methods to POSTs and GETs for example.
On the server side there would be webservices and behind them some sql server. Perhaps even based on nettalk, I donât know.
So it sort of feels more like ip driver situation but thru restful api.
I have seen some companies move their apps to cloud in similar way (not cw apps and these were newly built apps, but still they maintained similar looks to old appa and new ones are still windows desktop apps, just connected to cloud).
Itâs probably more or less a dream anyway so⌠
Yes, that would be great, RESTful API!
On the Windows clients: running my Application.exe
Somewhere in the cloud: my TPS database which is read/updated with RESTful API by my Application.exe.
Best regards

You mean like the IP Driver? Thatâs pretty much exactly what it does.
IP driver is direct tcp connection I think, which also means connection must not drop at any time for the app not to crash. I was thinking proper restful api with âstandardâ http calls like get, post etc
