Hi everyone, I have a question about threaded-servers: I need to send an object's state to a connected client every 100 milliseconds. I'm using alarms to do it and I'm having trouble canceling it once the client disconnected. I subclassed threaded-server, and I've overridden handle-client* so that it registers the alarm and goes into an infinite loop. The infinite loop is a complex word calculating the state of the object over time. The sending of the state to the client should only happen every 100 milliseconds, independently from the calculations.
I'm using "[ ] with-disposal" in handle-client* to try and cancel the alarm when the client disconnects but since the infinite loop doesn't do any I/O (it's all done in the alarm), it never throws an error when the stream is closed, and it also never returns, so dispose is never called. Can anyone think of a simple solution to this?
