Hi!
Almost for sure lots of you guys know Comet, also referred to as an
''server-push technology''.
The moste efficient ''server push'' solution I know is jetty +
nio +
continuations --
unfortunately you must use Java for it!!!!!
Also there is Juggernaut for Rails, but it''s useless for me because of
firewall restrictions (you need at least another port which is not 80, even
443 is a problem) and Flash Plugin in mandatory.
So, does anybody know if there is an implementation that saves me from using
Java for the web UI??
Please *whine*
I am so sick of Java web frameworks...... *aaargghh*
Regards
Peter

But firewall and NAT are two main problems when using Juggernaut. If somebody can bounce UDP packets through flash code, the way Skype and gtalk do for punching holes in firewall, it may as well work. But i don''t think its viable. On the other hand, on mongrel list, long time back, somebody tried to implement a basic comet kinda thingy. He reported it sorta worked, but couple of problems were/are there. I think basecamp also uses some kinda push to implement chat through web interface. I am not sure, how they are doing it. Or I am not even totally sure, if they are pushing the messages to the browser. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
