Hi,
As Brian already mentioned this is a very common task for many users. 50% or more of my applications are vehicles "talking" TCP to some own made server and some data (normally positions) are given to a MapPoint application to display the position on the map.
As far as I know there is no add-on and it should not because it would be different for each application and for each radio network (GPRS / Various satellite / MOBITEX / radio modem / packed radio / SMS / ...).
Wy dont you do direkt ? I mean wy first store it into a database and then read it and display ? Just dispatch the received data, if it is position then it go to your mappoint application and to the database and if it is other information the in can go to the database only. Develop a dispatch program that does this task. This dispatch program talk to you mappoint application and to the database. It can be a NT service for example. Of course I dont know your application so this advice is maybe non sence.
I think this is not off topic so can be discussed direkt on the forum. Could be interesting for many others here. |
