Re: [Cppcms-users] Current Develoment

[Artyom B. <art...@ya...>]

Actually I had recently started some internal reorganization of what is called "cgi_api" implementations (HTTP/FastCGI/SCGI) to switch the from a current pro-actor implementation to reactor + state machine based one with simplification of all I/O stuff and allow much more transparent hooking into various request stages.
As part of it WebSockets can be implemented.
BTW, with a little bit of code hacking I managed to create output web sockets (not input ones) on the current code base butbefore implementing it code reorganization is required and I work on it.
Also I must warn you, WebSockets are great mostly on paper as they don't really work with most HTTP proxies. (like any mobile provider or half of the work places) so unless you run all of them over HTTPS - they wouldn't work (tested it)
So unless you implement real time game with stuff like WebGL I'd suggest to stick to EventStream (which BTW can be implemented relatively easily even in IE10 with partial XHR) and post data with XHR.

As this is quite old (2 Months) I'd like to renew this topic.
I'd really like to see new features in cppcms, e.g. websockets, but I
don't see any progress since last year and it annoys me. I know you
don't like to hear it, but github is a really powerful and great
platform and yes, they support svn.
I would love to implement a first draft for the websockets, but I refuse
to hear excuses to not integrate the community in this framework.
There are tickets from 2010, 12, and 13 (14, 15 of course too) still open.
I really like the framework and everything else, but I'd love to see the
community be a part of this project. Currently they are "only" active
mailing list users, but concerning the code development? Nope. I see a
single commit that is not from artyom-beilis and that is from
'mtonkikh'. (isn't your nickname, is it?)

And that's something you have to change. I hope you understand my
feelings and I hope, that some other users feel the same way I do.
Please don't drive this project to the ground.

Regards,
Marcel
