Re: [Resin-interest] Quercus PHP for TCP Servers?
Hi Emil, thanks for the info - it sounds promising! :) After having a look into 3.1 and 3.2, I think I will go for 3.2. That gives me some time to do the work until 3.2 becomes the stable version ;-) And hopefully I can help to fix some issues. When I get it done, I put some more details on the list. I'm really enthusiastic about the prospects this approach would open for me.

Re: [Resin-interest] Quercus PHP for TCP Servers?
Hi, To migrate the C++ daemon, Resin includes some utilities to run tasks (Java classes in the end) periodically, we have also used Open Symphony's Quartz scheduler to develop such thing in a container independent way. The benefit of it is that you don't have to care about two different pieces of software. OTOH, if you have to have the server running independently of the servlet container, then a Java application running as a service daemon would do fine. Regarding using PHP for the business logic, the approach we have experimented with is to call the Quercus engine through the Java Scripting Interface and return XML from that, which is then fed to FreeMarker/XSLT to generate the output. We have not developed it specifically for PHP, it works with any scripting language, but PHP is just fine if you have PHP resources and want to re-use them. One could use PHP directly through the Quercus servlet, but that would mean no SoC, and we want it. We have a mini-example application that uses it and the framework that does the work is also Open Source, in case you wanted to have a look at it and see how it's done. We had no PHP resources so we are not currently using the language itself, but we use it with Groovy and it is "conceptually" the same. BTW: There's a memory leak in version 3.1.5/6 when Quercus is called through the Java Scripting API, so don't test the combination with that version. Not sure if the leak is still present in latest version as I had no time to test it yet. (http://bugs.caucho.com/view.php?id=2709) S! D.

First, you'll need write a custom protocol. Resin has a facility that lets you do that and configure it pretty easily: http://www.caucho.com/resin/examples/custom-protocol/index.xtp Next, you'll need to integrate Quercus into that protocol. There are a couple ways of doing that, but the easiest would probably be to use the javax.script interface. You'll just use the "Quercus" engine for the language. Looks like we don't have an example up for that yet, so I'll throw a quick one up on the blog (http://blog.caucho.com/) later today. If you have experience with javax.script though, it should be pretty straight forward. Keep us updated on your progress! It sounds like a very interesting project.
