LAUNCHER

LAUNCHER is a PC program designed to run on Windows or Linux operating systems.

While running, it uses sockets to wait for incoming TCP/IP connections on the appropriate socket. When a TCP/IP connection is established, LAUNCHER initiates a thread to process requests from that connection. LAUNCHER supports up to 100 simultaneous TCP/IP connections.

Notes:
  • Except in response to LOCK and UNLOCK commands, LAUNCHER makes no attempt to coordinate commands being processed on different threads. Thus, if different users of PCDRIVER use the same PC, the same working directory, and the same file names, they risk corrupting each other's work unless they all use LOCK and UNLOCK.

  • LAUNCHER executes the script file (.sh file) execution on the Linux operating system.
