Perhaps by killing the process using taskkill.

One alternative: put a standard timer in the ServerModule to check periodically something, i.e.:

• a global variable, that you can set through an admin form you might have to adminsitrate your application
• monitorize the presence of a flag file
• etc.

You also can use a special URL and analyze it (if you do so, use some kind of encription to ensure that the call to stop UniGUI server is really yours).

 

When you decide to stop the server monitoring variable/file/protocol/etc., simply execute Application.Terminate...

 

Hope it helps...

thank you!

Both of your advices are helpful,as my appliction is a standalone server,so putting a standard timer on the servermodule then checking some stoping flag is good choice.

thank again!
