Hi all, I've just pushed what I believe might address a few of the issues in this thread:
- the more fine-grained configuration options for request handling and queuing, server timeouts etc. (added in August due to threading issue) have been transferred to the main moses executable. - the server now pays attention to the xml-input option specified via json; the range of accepted values is the same as when specified on the command line. I have not written the xml-input handling and do not actively use it, so it may or may not work. I don't think there are any regression tests that test this right now. Reports from the trenches are welcome. - mosesserver.cpp is deprecated. It is now merely a shell around the regular moses call with --server. I did not remove it from the code base entirely, as I assume that there's a plethora of setups out there that rely on the existence of mosesserver. What the wrapper does is add --server to the options and then call run regular moses. - anyone adding stuff to mosesserver.cpp from now on owes me a lifetime supply of the finest Laphroaig. Just send me a quarter cask every year for Burns Nicht for the rest of my life if you do. If I haven't pushed anything for two years, you may assume I'm dead. - Uli On Tue, Nov 10, 2015 at 2:58 PM, Ulrich Germann <ulrich.germ...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi all, > > mosesserver is deprecated and should not be used any more.
