I'm creating a RESTXQ-based Web application. One of things I need to do is have a REST method that then does a potentially long-running operation against the database.

I don't see an obvious way to to start a long query and not have it block in the this configuration.

If I had a standalone client app (e.g., a Java app that provided the UI) then it would be no problem, just create a new connection for the long-running app.

But in the context of a RESTXQ application is there a way to do it? I didn't see anything obvious in the docs but I'm not sure I know what to look for.

Thanks,

Eliot
