Zip Compression? (General questions)

Hi there,

Does WodWebServer support on-the-fly compression like most other webservers out there? And if not, is this a planned feature for the future?
It makes a very large difference these days since there is so much XML and JSON being passed to the client.

Not yet, but this could be added. I'll try to add it over the weekend.

Simon,

can you download wodWebServer.NET again, and you'll find new Compression property. When set, 'deflate' compression will be provided.

Docs are not updated yet, they will be in next few days when vacations are over.

Let me know how it goes.

Hi. ActiveX version now has compression too, both 'deflate' and 'gzip'. Docs will be made next week, but change is alreay published online.

Hi there,

I don't see the compression property in the activeX control, either in code or in the properties window. Is it there?
I just upgraded to 1.3.9.278

Hi Simon,

I just checked. It's there.

You can set it by doing something like this (VB6):

wodWebServer1.Compression = True

Can you try that?

Hi there,

GOT IT TO WORK! Thanks!!!

Important! For users of VB.NET who use the ActiveX, you need to remove WodWebServer from the toolbox, delete the WOD WEB SERVER Interop files in your project path, then re-add it. (You can find them by searching for any files that contain WODWEB in Windows, in your project's path.

Sorry for the late reply we've been busy coding other things.
