Hi Jan, > Are you trying to make something along the lines of: > http://www.jsoftware.com/jwiki/MarshallLochbaum/Parallelize ?
Not really, but somewhat similar. I'm working towards building more complex web applications with J. The notion that a single request could block all other requests makes me uncomfortable. Let's say a calculation takes 5 seconds and I want 4 people to be able to execute the calculation at once. I don't want the last person to wait 20 seconds. This was the motivation for my proof of concept https://github.com/joebo/j-fork-server for windows. I really like the idea of being cross platform. I have a inexpensive linux virtual private server that I'd like to be able to run J apps on. Also, I want to be able to create apps that run on Windows servers for development or possibly production. The cross platform story is a strong value proposition for J As an aside, this approach could be used to create a master/worker framework. For example, in C#, I could execute multiple parallel requests to a J web server and pass the unit of work in the request. I could then do a WaitAll() for all those units of work to complete. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/vstudio/hh556530(v=vs.110).aspx ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For information about J forums see http://www.jsoftware.com/forums.htm
