Yes and no.


No, because we dropped the WISP protocol. V8s primary entry point is via HTTP 
through Jetty. Users can opt to use Jetty as the only HTTP/S solution for their 
sites, or can reverse proxy from Apache/IIS/etc to gain benefits of those 
servers.



V8 does however also have a CLI entry point. This doesn’t work like the WISP 
architecture you outlined below, but does support a simple command line 
execution of a TAF. This entry point is intended to replace the cron system as 
well as the tool you outlined below. The command line can be executed by any 
application, such as Windows scheduled tasks.



We’ve also added a way for a TAF to create a new request directly, without 
going through an entry point, so you don’t need to use @URL or Webcall to start 
another request going. This feature is still being developed.



Finally, we’ve added a scope initialization system, so there’s no longer a need 
to use startup url to initialize scopes.



These are just a few of the dozens of new features we’ve added to v8 in an 
effort to modernize the platform.

Witango had an interface called WISP that enabled us to execute a witango file 
from a command prompt bypassing the webserver.



This was useful for a few reasons:



1.      Files ran MUCH faster than when we executed them through the webserver. 
I ran performance tests that consistently verified this
2.      We didn’t have to deal with browser timeout issues for applications 
that we wanted to run for a long period of time



This interface included a wisp.ini file:



==========================

[Witango Client Definitions]

WispClientDemo=



[WispClientDemo]

WITANGO_CONFIGPATH=C:\\Program Files\\Witango\\Server\\Configuration

==========================



and an application that Phil (Witango) gave me called witangoclientdemo.exe 
that you can execute from a command prompt:



"C:\Program Files\Wisp\WitangoClientDemo.exe" \witangoFile.taf



I’ve been using this for years on older systems. It’s great because I can set 
up a sql agent job and just pass the application file to the 
witangoclientdemo.exe and it just runs, fast and reliable. Easy scheduling, 
logging, error handling etc.



Does the new version of terascript have this functionality?
