Push type of action available?

[MikeK]

From my review of this control, we can code an alert to respond to an event. My question is can we have the alert handle some type of push event?

I've setup a ticketing system that I want to handle assignments. When a new assignment is set to a specific person, if this person has the application open on their desktop - I want an alert to popup on their box.

I can add a timer to the form that checks the database once a minute, but that seems rather primitive and resource intensive. Is there a better way to do this?

Hello Mike,

Thank you for writing.

Your question does not seem to be directly related to RadControls for WinForms and it should be asked in the appropriate forums. Here is a quick search result. Directly to your question, RadDesktopAlert does not have such a built-in functionality and it is up to you to determine when and where to open the alert. 

Should you have any other questions related to our suite, do not hesitate to contact us.
 
Kind regards,
Stefan
