Hi guys,
I just was spending the last 5 days in Amsterdam, during the Apache
Conference, and had some great time. I also had a talk about MINA (I
will post the slides on the mina web site, and some great conversations
with Jean-François Arcand, one of the Grizzly committer, who had a talk
about NIO 2.0.
During those conversations, an idea popped out of our minds (well, beers
are the brain's steroids, it seems ...) : what about creating a set of
standard protocol codec which can be used, alleviating the users burden
and letting them focus on the handler part ?
That should not be complicated to grow this set of protocol codecs (they
will be like plugins), and we will get less mails from users having
problem just because they have made some mistake in their decoder.
We may have standard codecs for :
- http,
- ldap
- ntp
- XML (that is a bit complex, but I have some idea about it)
- XMPP
- ...
Wdyt ?
PS1: Thanks to Ashish's XML sample, I was able to whip this part of the
presentation in a matter of 30 minutes !
PS2 : I just posted this mail in the Thalys, the speed train between
Amsterdam and Paris. Funny how you can use Wifi when the train is
running at 300 Km/h !!! And it's free :
