The object creates a Web server from the PROMOTIC application, i.e. it allows the application to provide for example HTML or XML pages. See
Overview of the Web technology in the PROMOTIC system and
HTTPS - secured HTTP protocol.
Except the objects inserted directly, also another objects (Web components) located elsewhere in the tree of
Pma objects can be registered into this object (e.g.
PmaPanel,
PmaWorkspace,
PmaTrendGroup,
PmaAlarmGroup,
PmaData objects, etc.). These extra objects are registered into this object using the "
Web server" tab in the "
PmaWeb object" configurator. All these objects will become Web subcomponent of this object, i.e. URL address of these subcomponents will begin with the URL address of this object.
The runtime information regarding the status of the PROMOTIC Web server communication with its clients (the statistics of HTTP transmissions, the contents of the last transmissions, etc.) can be observed in the "
/COMM/WebServer" item of the INFO system.
