I am looking for open-source linux-based Comet server. Currently, looking at Hookbox - but as it's in Python, I am concerned about performance. Does Python instead of C++ have big impact on performance here? Developer estimated it's performance to about 100 of requests per second when having 100 channels... Not really fast :-| Could y...
Anyone have working (simple) example source code of the Bayeux + Comet support in Resin 4? Thanks. (or if not, any for Jetty?) ...
We're looking at implementing cometchat for a client and wondered if anyone had any positive/negative experiences with it. We're looking at using the Audio/Video chat and Screensharing plugins, so are considering a paid solution in case we need support/to upscale quickly. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks, Adrian ...
Does anybody knows when will feed v2 leave trusted tester stage? There are some usecases of feed v2 that overlap with Google Channel API, so I don't quite get point of releasing feed v2, instead of switching to channel API entirely. Is this due to smoother transition towards Web Socket API ? or I miss some point :) ...
I am doing comet long polling to retrieve notifications from the server. There is significant delay when requesting new pages quickly. The long poll request is held for 60 seconds. I'm pretty confident cause is that IE7 is waiting for these requests to complete. The delay is gone if I up the MaxConnectionsPerServer value in the regis...
I'm trying to implement comet in my application and, being inexperienced with JavaScript, I'm not sure how to do the client side. When the server receives a request, it just keeps it open and writes data to it when necessary: def render_GET(self, request): print "connected" request.write("Initiated\r\n") reactor.callLater(r...
Dear Stackers, I'm developing a web application which requires long-running Ajax requests. Unfortunately, under Firefox, pressing Escape during a request has the drawback of killing the request and any information it was holding. This is rather annoying, as this can lead to all sorts of nasty complications if this happens at the wrong t...
Is it worth using Comet for events that are not needed "in realtime", but with a possible delay of, say, 1 minute. Such would be: twitter status updates facebook updates I know comet is perfect for a chat application (facebook and GTalk chats are using it), but does twitter, for example, use comet. Or is AJAX-polling sufficient for ...
SO has lot many questions of this type but not able to find correct solution. May be I am missing anything. I am struggling from last few days for finding better option for Chat service. Following thing I have to keep in mind before using any option.. It should be OS independent Installation should be easy Opensource so that can be mo...
I have a shared linux hosting. Apache is running on it. My site is built in php. I have a chat application which uses ajax long polling. I want to turn it to comet chat. I do not have much knowledge about server things. Please help me step by step suggestion. It will be a great help to me. Thanks in advance. ...
I have a current project running using APE that needs to work on C#/.NET... I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for either a method of approaching Reverse AJAX/Comet on C#/.NET or any packages such as APE that are available. EDIT For clarification, APE doesn't work on Windows. Which is a restriction I have with the project. ...
There seems to be significant issues with Tomcat6/Comet/NIO (example). Are the majority of people doing asynchronous http using something else? Jetty/continuations? What about Glassfish's servlet 3.0 implementation? Others? ...
I'm trying to build a streaming solution for an internal app, but am drawing blanks for a solution to get past a roadblock. Currently, in my working example, I'm using APE, but due to restrictions I can't have any foreign running processes on the host machine, so I can't run the APE server. I'm looking for alternatives, but everything I...
I'm looking for an example, how to implement a longpoling mechanism in java. I would love to use a stateless EJB. I know that something like that would work: @WebService(serviceName="mywebservice") @Stateless public class MyWebService { @WebMethod public String longPoll() { short ct = 0; while(someCondition ==...
I have a website that uses a long-polling comet connection. The connection needs to be setup on/after page load. Despite my efforts to prevent it, many browsers consider the long-poll request to be part of the page loading mechanism, thus keeping the page in a 'loading' phase. In Safari this results in the progress bar (behind the url f...
I'm trying to take up node.js for a comet-based program. Essentially I'm going to have information coming in from either an SQL database or a XML feed, but the end result needs to be the same. I'm confused upon the implementation and here's my road blocks, help would be greatly appreciated. Streaming - I've been able to build simple mo...
I understand how I can use a raw socket to listen to a server application and recieve information but I need an easy to access API and I am very familiar with REST. Is there a way to push (not by using long pooling) data using a WCF service? Here's my idea of how things should happen, at least at the begining: The client accesses a U...
Either existing libraries or a discussion of how to implement it would be fine. I'm trying to find a solution that doesn't require thread blocking. I've found some solutions (like juggernaut and orbited) and was wondering what else was out there. ...
I need to create for my blog in PHP, a chat like facebook-chat in erlang. But I don't know how to share the username+password between APACHE and Ejabberd. How do I do this ? ...
I regret to say that I am planning on dropping orbited due to the lack of support and available literature from the community. I am using twisted + django. What would be the easiest transition to another comet server? These are my requiremnts: ( in order of priority ): Community Size Easiness of deployment Availability in Python Pl...
