I thought I sent this last week, but I used the wrong account, anyway: This example is not "multi-threaded", but it handles multiple connections. The basic API are ns_socklisten, ns_sockaccept and ns_sockcheck. (http://rmadilo.com/files/nsapi/)
The example also uses ns_socklistencallback, but the code is very cryptic. Basically the client contacts the server with a contact address/port then creates a server to listen for updates (server push). The server uses ns_socklistencallback but avoids hanging in a single thread because it just gets the contact information and starts a scheduled proc to handle the recurring request (push). The scheduled proc contacts the client on the given schedule and pushes the requested data. The client could actually handle requests from multiple servers by using ns_socklisten/accept: http://www.junom.com/gitweb/gitweb.perl?p=3Dtwt.git;a=3Dtree;f=3Dpackages/tclbean/tcl;h=3D8f0100 tom jackson On Tue, Aug 18, 2009 at 5:56 AM, Nikolay Shulga<nikolay.shu...@runway.lv> w= rote: > Hello, > > Is it possible to use Aolserver as multithreaded TCL socket server ? > > If I connect to Aolserver using telnet , the server waits one of HTTP > comands from me.
