Rev as server immune to buffer overflow?

[Pierre Sahores]

Hello Richard,

If you avoid the use of "GET" calls to access from a client app to your 
rev sockets driven server = if you only use "POST" procs, the server 
will never wake up if he recieve a request witch is not listed in its 
predefinite collection of actions to handle. It will just stay in idle 
state => no way, in using this design guideline to have the rev app 
server going to bufferoverflow trouble... Just unpossible. I never got 
this in huit yahrs of MC/Rev applications servers deploymen ;-)

Best, Pierre
