[Webware-discuss] Detach a process from a page.

[Aaron H. <aa...@me...>]

I would like to be able to fire off a long runing process from a servlet and then detach it so I can close the page.  Currently I am
experimenting by creating another independent small server process, but is there some better way?
I just started looking at TaskKit and I was thinking about a starting a new Task and passing the user session info.  It would be
great if the task could then report its progess back to that users session, where I can pick it up for display in a web page.

Has anyone tried something like this?

Thanks,
