ANN: Rugby + server chaining + threading
[1/6] from: m:koopmans2:chello:nl at: 12-Feb-2002 16:33
Hi All,
Just uploaded a renewed version of Rugby with a simple threading engine and
a chain function for server chaining. The code was finished yesterday late
night but then I got the flu so I am hardly behind the computer.
See the docs for details,

I guess we shouldn't download it without using some virus protection?
;-)

Maarten - it is great you can code fast. However, there is plenty of
changes and skipping back and forth last weeks. I know that the life of
developers is like that, but please feel free to discuss some topics
with us. I hope you have still Rugby in control and everything is well
modularized, calling conventions are unified ;-), etc. etc. Keep Rugby
simplified and decide well what to add in user level, to allow well
scaling in most situations.
I think that we will soon need some 'cluster functionality, transparent
code propagation thru chained nodes, search/request delivery
capabilities etc. Think of all possibilities :-) I hope we are fine so
far :-)
btw: how is Rugby today in regards to upcoming async i/o coming in
future rebol versions? Rugby is significant product. Maybe you could get
NDA signed with RT to have access to some "what's planned" info ...
Thanks,

I do. Whenever an improvement is made it is released though.

We are. 'chain and the threading engine are the necessary steps for that.
I am figuring out the next steps as I stare at the ceiling these days ;-)

Non-blocking + state machine = Rugby = more or less async IO. Rebol
will improve in that area (?) but I am already so close that I don't bother.

I'm late getting to this, and for that I apologize, particularly if this
has already been answered. But:
Where's the link? You announce new releases, but no links.

http://www.rebolforces.com/~erebol .... beware - very complicated site! ;-)
