I am utilising the OEServer service to perform some operations with our OI data outside of OI using Visual Studio.NET 2008, as this is currently the only way I have been able to find to do it, however it requires me to use the OECGI2.exe as a communications protocol as I have not been able to find much information about the JD3 protocol or whatever it is to be able to write some sort of interface to directly talk to the engine server in .NET, is there any documentation or information that can be found here that will assist me in creating a link such as this so that I do not have to rely on the OECGI2.exe and the machines having to have IIS installed on them etc. I remember seeing a PHP sample that talked to the OEngineServer, but i cant remember where it was…thanks.

Aaron,
I copied a C# example from a sample project to http://docs.google.com/Doc?id=dhh9ztnx_54fdhz7vfk
It is not a clean well commented example, but it might get you started. As I recall I fiddled with character encodings and Base64 so I could pass data that contained control characters.

Thanks! I just finished writing my version based on the PHP file i found above and then i checked here again :P dang!
I ended up writing mine into a Class and DLL and allowed for some threading depending on how many engines are allowed to run so that i can use it in any of my projects, works a treat so far, looks almost exactly the same as what you have sent just in VB.net :P
