I had seen in another mail that there was a Python framework to make
writing clients and servers easier. Is this the code in
python/qpid/peer.py and python/qpid/delegate.py? If this is the code,
are there any examples using the code? If this isn't the code, any
pointers would be appreciated.
That is the code, however you want the version under here:
branches/qpid.0-9/python/
Look at the server script in the above directory for example server usage.
I'm not sure this is really what you're looking for though since the
RPC-apis are generated from the AMQP XML spec itself, so you'd really
have to write a new version of the XML spec file if you wanted to use
custom APIs, i.e. this code is really XML spec based RPC-apis for
*implementing* a message bus, not RPC apis *over* a message bus.
That said many of the same pythonesque coding tricks for dynamically
generating APIs would probably still apply so it's certainly worth a
look and I'm happy to answer any other questions that may come up.
