TNetFile

Hi,

I have a question regarding TNetFiles. I am trying to set up a main CPU to perform the DAQ tasks for my experiment. I will have other remote machines that will display the data being acquired on the main CPU. The question I have is the following: Can I have a TNetFile that is open and being written to, while other remote processes are simultaneously reading from the file? Is this a safe thing to do and will it work? If not, can you suggest another alternative. I am trying to set up a system that can in real time write data to a file and also allow other to read from the file. In particular I am using TNetFile.

Thank You,

Best Regards,

Jon

Yes, this is possible. See:

What is described using TFile should also work with TNetFile.
