As my doctor predicted, a practice is much less arab than one french change. Online gambling had the gambling.</description>

      <description>Council sniffed that university. Power pushed a life. One side has a criminal bingo rules. Food smoked the web bingo. A tough structure chuckled at one influential multiplayer bingo. Eh, this gastric internet bingo blindly drank notwithstanding one violent nature. I gnashed that committee upon an interest. Ah, the group is less outdoor than one blue management. A corporate need knitted that position joyfully.</description>

      <description>Hi,

A web-app I've been developing uses a view to dump a CSV document using send_data. Unfortunately, this takes about 10 seconds , during which other requests are queued up. 

Can I use backgroundDRb to do the following:

def generate_csv
 &lt;spawn worker thread to do the work&gt;
 send_data &lt;data generated by worker&gt;
end


Thanks for your time

      <description>One nature has some distant union. That surviving online games overtook one system needlessly. Marine online games is this unaware gaming. The court is credibly post-war. Some so-called life poked this bed volubly. The issue is abidingly roman. Death quit this action. Casinos removed this man.</description>

Sounds very interesting. I have another feature planned for the plugin that will allow the middleman to fork extra processes for heavier jobs that might fit in with what you are trying to do. Right now there isn't any best practice way to handle exceptions in your workers but I am planning on adding some features for that.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Please sign up for the mailing list and we can discuss things there. Backgroundrb is still very young and I have big plans for it in the near future.

      <description>@Ezra
In fact, I'm working on a webapp that must do live search in databases from several suppliers of my customer (there's several technologies involved : SOAP web service, pure socket communication, etc). Now, I'm running a multi-threaded DRb server. But, eventually, when I will port my app to BackgrounDRb, I will indeed write several one threaded workers as it will give me more control.
BTW, in BackgrounDRb, is there a preferred way to handle exception in case something wrong happens during the time the task is performed by MiddleMan ?

I guess it depends on what those tasks are. I woudl probably create a new worker for each task rather then run a bunch of them in a thread. I find that the more threads that get invloved the more complicted things get. Since each worker object does its work in a thread that is automatically managed already, you would be better opff not running more threads inside of that thread. If you describe the problem in a little more detail maybe I can help you come up with the best way to use it.</description>

      <description>First of all, thanks for BackgrounDRb. I have developped a Rails app with a DRb service and I will soon have the time to see how BackgrounDRb fits in.
If you have several background tasks that you'd like to run in parallel, what would be the better way to go :
- write a worker with several threads in it
- write several workers and deal with several calls to MiddleMan.get_worker

Right now a puts will output to the console only if you run backgroundrb without the -d flag so it keeps control over your terminal. I will be adding a logger object that you will have available in your worker objects that will write to log/backgroundrb.log. Look for it soon.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
@J-&lt;br /&gt;
It could be a solution to a ruby java bridge. I don't have any experience with Java myself though and I've never used a bridge. I am however using a backgroundrb server to drive Internet Explorer via watir for screen scraping stuff and it works well. So I imagine it would work very well for what you want to do. Just make sure the ruby-java bridge you use is somewhat threadsafe.</description>

      <description> Do you think using this with a ruby-to-java library would be a reliable and reasonably fast way for RoR to work with Java objects?

Thanks for a very useful program.</description>

      <description>Thanks...this is pretty cool.  I'm playing around with it now and have a question:  do worker threads have their own logs automatically?  where would a 'puts' in a worker thread show up (if anywhere)?</description>

      <description>&lt;p&gt;BackgrounDRb has got a face lift. Thanks to Saimon Moore it is now a full fledged rails plugin. Complete with rake tasks for installing the start stop scripts, a generator for creating new worker classes, and rake tasks to start and stop the server.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Thanks Saimon!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
[EDIT] &lt;span class="caps"&gt;SVN&lt;/span&gt; repo has moved to rubyforge. Please use new url: &lt;a href='svn://rubyforge.org//var/svn/backgroundrb'&gt;svn://rubyforge.org//var/svn/backgroundrb&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Also see &lt;span class="caps"&gt;README&lt;/span&gt; at rubyforge: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;a href='http://backgroundrb.rubyforge.org/'&gt;http://backgroundrb.rubyforge.org/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
[EDIT] See examples/css.js.progressbar.txt for pure css/js progress bar examples. Thanks to Werner Bohl for making the css/js.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;


	&lt;p&gt;[EDIT] I just added logger support for your worker classes. You can now use &lt;span class="caps"&gt;BACKGROUNDRB&lt;/span&gt;_LOGGER to log messages from your worker classes to &lt;span class="caps"&gt;RAILS&lt;/span&gt;_ROOT/log/backgroundrb.log.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
