So apart from hacking on the source and recompiling to create a modified version of Calibre, is it possible to shut down the calibre-server on a Windows installation via a plugin?

In other words, When I fire up Calibre on Windows could I integrate an option (via plugin) where I could shut down the server process.

This would create the reverse of the Calibre-server headless setup, i.e we have the GUI without the server as a opposed to the server without the GUI.

I know there are various solutions to this problem, like running identical db's and syncing but I think that is messy and wastes disk space, I am looking for a more elegent solution.

Maybe Mr Goyal could offer an opinion on the matter?

Thanks

You must have the 'Sharing option' set to START the server when you start the GUI. <this can be (onetime) shut down from the connect/share icon or configured not to start>

There is a separate CLI calibre-server.exe that others are talking about
