Re: WebServer on WinCE

As long as the web server itself is running your COM object in its thread,
then it will not time you out automatically. If the web server is sitting
idle during a connection and the client goes 60 seconds without sending it
any data, that is when it will auto-timeout, but that's a different scenario
of course.

90 seconds is a rather long time so it's possible some client timeout may
kick in eventually, though this is a browser thing of course. The more
likely scenario is that a user may grow frustrated watching the little
waiting icon for a minute and a half so you'd definitely need some sort of
warning or maybe even a status or countdown bar of some sort.
