Date: 2006-10-18T15:27:19+09:00 Subject: [ANN] ap4r-0.2.0 Released AP4R version 0.2.0 has been released! http://rubyforge.org/projects/ap4r/ Changes: == 0.2.0 (October 17th, 2006) * Added: Protocols to invoke asynchronous logics * Added: At-lease-once QoS Now, asynchronous processes are called via various protocols, such as XML-RPC, SOAP, raw HTTP. Especially raw HTTP is very convenient, compared to XML-RPC which needs Struct class, or SOAP which needs wsdl definition. And using store and forward function, at-least-omce QoS level is provided. If you have any problems please let me know ( or you can tell me at RubyConf ) . == What's AP4R ? AP4R, Asynchronous Processing for Ruby, is the implementation of reliable asynchronous message processing. It provides message queuing, and message dispatching. Using asynchronous processing, we can cut down turn-around-time of web applications by queuing, or can utilize more machine power by load-balancing. Also AP4R nicely ties with your Ruby on Rails applications. See HelloWorld sample application from rubyforge. -- Kato, Kiwamu kato.kiwamu / future.co.jp Shinohara, Shunichi shinohara.shunichi / future.co.jp ========================================================== Kiwamu Kato Future System Consulting Corp.
