XML RPC Stream Module / News: Recent posts

The files will appear soon once I've finished testing.

XmlRpcStream is designed for the situation where a persistant connection between client and server is required. XmlRpcStream is not complient with the XML RPC spec as it doesn't use HTTP as the transport protocol.

In this release API has changed, however this is for the better and I now included better documentation done in structured text format. A "connection manager" is now used to look after all sockets in use by the xml rpc streams. This allows many more connections to be used then was previously possible.

I see there has been a few downloads of this
module. This is a surprise, I didn't expect
many people to be using this module. I'm
curious to hear people comments on what they
use this library for and what suggestions/
additions they'd like to see.

So If you've got a free moment feel free to
post or email me. Thanks,

I've just managed to add my first package/release
to sourceforge. I'm not doing debian or red hat
packages at the moment.

Yep, I've successfully finished the basic chat server and client and it work well on win32 systems
and linux. There is one issues however on linux. On win32 systems when the a client exits the server get a 'connection reset by peer' exception, I catch this and then know the client has gone. On linux however this isn't happening. I have to track this down. I reckon its related to the socket options and what they are set to by default on BSD socket compatible systems
