Wojciech Kocjan wrote a book about network programming and TCL (I have it, very beautiful). I asked Wojciech if he knows Rivet. Here is the answer:
From: Wojciech Kocjan <[email protected]> Yes I know rivet - I actually helped with its predecessor, mod_dtcl. We have tried to focus on only a subset of all network related subjects and try to cover them in depth and providing practical examples. >From web related areas, we only covered Tclhttpd - including CGI since it is covered by Tclhttpd as well and packages like ncgi can be used in both areas. We mainly focused on solutions that are easy to deploy - taking tclhttpd and starting it is straightforward, and we provided step by step instructions for it. There was just not enough place in the book for all web related solutions. We also skipped AOLserver, which is a large part of Tcl history and has provided a lot of improvements to Tcl itself. Perhaps second edition of the book will include more on www - including Wub/WubTk if they become more mature projects and Tcl 8.6 becomes stable. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
