<snip> > - libtpproto-py: Not implemented yet. libtpproto-py will probably never have support for TP04, instead I will be moving to libtpproto2-py. libtpproto2-py will have a fairly backwards compatible interface (as far as clients are concerned) but will use the protocol.xml file for maintaining the frame format information. Where the changes are not backwards compatible the changes will make things more consistent. Other things that have been implemented in libtpproto2-py include - Properly thread safe - A much better way to handle pipe lining (no longer requiring busy-wait). - Tests! (Yay!) - Improved error checking and "early failure" when things go wrong. - Simulated "lag" for testing locally. Almost all of the above features have already been implemented. I'm really just waiting for a stable protocol.xml to finish it off. (However got other priorities yet.) This should drastically reduce the amount of time I spend fuzzing around in the protocol library. <snip> Tim 'Mithro' Ansell _______________________________________________ tp-devel mailing list [email protected] http://www.thousandparsec.net/tp/mailman.php/listinfo/tp-devel
