Re: [AOLSERVER] Aolserver as multithreaded TCL soc ket server ?

[Jim Davidson]

The code should work ok. I remember it was a bit messy to map these  
Aolserver tcl commands which pre-dated the Tcl channel stuff so it was  
compatible years ago and there were examples of memory leaks from long  
running detached tcl threads but with care it should be ok

Hello,

AolServer gives a possibility to use ns_socklistencallback to open a  
socket, 'ns_thread begindetached' to create thread, ns_chan  - to  
path channel to this thread. If we do this with every new  
connection, we get multithreaded tcp socket server - which is  
exactly what I wanted. I've tested it and it works.

Now I have a question if there exists any potential problem with  
such aproach ? During this week, I has been googling on this topic.  
I've met several discussions in the Internet on this theme, and for  
some strange reason nobody has proposed this method to be used, it  
has not been discussed. So is there a reason not to use it ?

AOLserver can certainly handle this. There used to be nsftp, which  
did just that.

Hello,


Is it possible to use Aolserver as multithreaded TCL socket server ?


If I connect to Aolserver using telnet , the server waits one of HTTP
comands

from me. But it would be good to have full access to the socket

, from TCL script,

without being obliged to send HTTP GET or other

requests.


ns_register_proc - unfortunately doesn't give such a possibility, I  
can
have

access to the socket but only after HTTP request has been sent.



ns_socklistencallback - it gives full controll over the channell ,  
but
process

only one client at the moment. It will accept connections from

several clients,

but will process only the first one. The others will

block untill the first one

will disconnect.



Please , if anyone knows the solution for this, share it with me .
