similar to: [PATCH-SUGGESTION] autostarting workers

Hello there, I need a Worker Class to be Singleton-like, that means there must be at maximum one Instance at a time. When a new Request is made to create another worker of this type, it should return and wait for the other instance to be destroyed. what i need to do: i have a worker who needs to do sth with java and openoffice, and it seems when i have more tha one worker simultaneously,

Hello folks, does backgroundrb delete workers who exited do_work()? i experienced it doesnt (and that freaked me because i didnt know that for several hours). is there a way to let the middleman or so delete workers who did their job imediately after they''re done? if not, i coud think of that as a nice improvement. greetz -- Michael Siebert <info at siebert-wd.de>

Hello there! I made a little patch for scripts/backgroundrb/start to make detach work on win32! It needs win32-process to work (it''s a lib from the Win32 Utils project on rubyforge: http://rubyforge.org/projects/win32utils/). To install it, just issue a "gem install win32-process --include-dependencies". If the script detects the :detach option (and a win32 platform), it tries

Hi, i had a little problem a few minutes ago. somehow the backgroundrb process got mad and consumed all the cpu power available, i think it got an endless loop. i dont know why, no exceptions were thrown. could this be an issue of bgdrb or ruby or rails (as i load the rails environment) -- Michael Siebert <info at siebert-wd.de> www.stellar-legends.de - Weltraum-Browsergame im

Hello, i need to have some jobs scheduled in the background and executed at specific times. I wanted to make a worker who does that - and it works a little bit - but i had an enlightment... why not make bgdrb itself play that role? i mean, the MiddleMan has already everything needed! a timer thread, currently used only for deleting old workers and the workers itself. since im not familiar with

for those who didn''t read it somewhere else: the bug being adresseb by 1.1.5was not completely fixed, so now theres another security update: http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/RidingRails/~3/10954980/rails-1-1-6-backports-and-full-disclosure anybody using engines, dont update since this update will break the plugin, more info for fixing the bug in this case also in the blog. -- Michael

I have a few simple controllers doing plain, simple crud in a standard way. now it''s not very DRY to write a funtcional test for each controller, since they are all doing the same (apart from a few variable names, but that could be easily inflected or so). is there a way to do this? e.g. does inheritance work with tests, so i define a base test first, inherit my other tests and add a few

I''ve now got 5 processes auto started. But I when I query the MiddleMan for their keys (in script/console), it doesn''t find them. Looking at the start script, it looks like it might be creating a new MiddleMan object for each autostart BackgrounDRb::MiddleMan.new.new_worker(:class => entry[''class''], Even changing it to

Folks- I just commited another revision of the plugin. Nothing huge in this update but some extra features. Acl lists are now configurable in the config file. So you will want to blow away and recreate your config file again. Thanks to Georg Friedrich for this. And I applied Gunter Ladwig''s patch for singleton worker classes. These are workers that only have one instance of
