The ruby code creates a new http connection for each call to transceive. Here
is what I changed to make it work:
gabor$ diff /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/avro-1.4.0/lib/avro/ipc.rb
~/avro-trunk/lang/ruby/lib/avro/ipc.rb
518d517
< require "net/http"
525d523
< @conn = Net::HTTP.start host, port
531c529,531
< resp = @conn.post('/', writer.to_s, {'Content-Type' => 'avro/binary'})
---
> resp = Net::HTTP.start(host, port) do |http|
> http.post('/', writer.to_s, {'Content-Type' => 'avro/binary'})
> end
Thanks,
