[Cppcms-users] Current state of development

[Christian G. <chr...@gm...>]

Hi Artyom

It looks like you are quite a busy man but what are the plans for a new cppcms
release?

If I read http://cppcms.com/wikipp/en/page/cppcms_1x_tasks it looks
like that there
are quite a few (open?) tasks. Would it make more sense to strip down the number
of planed features and release more often a new version?

Btw did you see http://sourceforge.net/p/cppcms/bugs/104/ ?

The most important task I really need to implement is

http://cppcms.com/wikipp/en/page/cppcms_1x_tasks#Add.Support.of.multiple.event.loops


Because it is critical for scalability 

Also this one: http://cppcms.com/wikipp/en/page/cppcms_1x_tasks#Provide.Plugin.Framework

probably would be postponed - mostly because it requires some design and there is already some basic support of it + support in cppcms_tmp_cc that is ready.

And several other small tasks that would not take much time:

http://cppcms.com/wikipp/en/page/cppcms_1x_tasks#Improve.Support.of.RESTful.services

http://cppcms.com/wikipp/en/page/cppcms_1x_tasks#Improve.file.serving.performance

Also I'm planning to publish some notes about the project state.

>Btw did you see http://sourceforge.net/p/cppcms/bugs/104/ ?

Yes. See it is a bug in CMake. You can extract tar.bz2 using 7zip without problems.

The problem is that zip can't contain symlinks - and some people would try to download
it anyway even on Linux and will get failed tests.

So I'd rather prefer not to provide zip.

I have seen you did some commits and would like to know if you are
planing to release
a new version soon? Would it be possible to merge the following commit
from trunk into v1.0_fixes branch?

r2231: Read only attribute support, closing #13

Do you have an update on this one?

There are several important bugs I need to fix so it should be
ready withing a week or two.

Currently I have following problems (before a release):

(a) A newly booster.thread test fails on FreeBSD I need to find why it may be a serious bug
(a) The ICU test fails with ICU version >= 50. It is either ICU bug or just a change that I need to ignore in the test so I'm waiting for a answer from ICU team.

It changes the ABI in "forward compatible way" only - it adds a new API.
It should be done for major versions only.

If I add more API changes I need to consider more stuff that is even more 
important - like for example accessing cache outside the application
to fire triggers and some other things.

Hello,

Since a new release is planned, would you consider the patch I submitted 
for the following feature request "#17 make the skin generation order 
independent" ?

http://sourceforge.net/p/cppcms/feature-requests/17/

Thanks,
