Hi Uli,
thanks a lot! We will try to add some test cases for Mosesserver, including XML input with/without placeholders. Best, Evgeny. ________________________________ From: Ulrich Germann <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, November 11, 2015 2:58 AM To: Evgeny Matusov Cc: [email protected] Subject: Re: [Moses-support] use placeholder with mosesserver 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 <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: Hi all, mosesserver is deprecated and should not be used any more. I'll transfer the threading-related changes to the server implementation in the regular moses executable and let you know once I'm done so that other things (like passthrough) can be added. By the looks of it, the changes are fairly straightforward, so it shouldn't take long. However, I can't guarantee that the new server will do everything the old server did, (or do it the same way). It would be fantastic if a few people could design and contribute test cases so that we can do some regression testing for the server. Ideally a test case should provide: - tiny models to work with (or we may be able to recycle some that already exist) - sample input (json) - expected output (json) Cheers - Uli On Tue, Nov 10, 2015 at 11:37 AM, Evgeny Matusov <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: Hi, can any of the more active recent developers advise what is the latest stable mosesserver implementation? It seems to be the one in moses/server, but the one in in contrib/server/mosesserver.cpp has been updated in August of this year with an important fix related to multiple threads: https://github.com/moses-smt/mosesdecoder/commit/3c682fa8b05af6bff1a09f420141795875cf9685 https://www.mail-archive.com/moses-support%40mit.edu/msg12875.html As Gregor mentioned, we would like to share our fix so that Mosesserver correctly supports placeholders. I want to make sure that this is a fix for something that many people use without problems.

Mosesserver and moses use different routines to parse the input string; in particular the code in mosesserver did not parse placeholders input correctly. It seems to me that this is fixed in the most recent version of mosesserver (though I have not tested this; I just looked at the code); in addition, our team is currently discussing whether it makes sense to make available our patches to the mosesserver code either on the version we are using, or on a more recent version, available end of this week.
