Dear Smalltalkers,
Swazoo 2.0 is here, on Squeak and VisualWorks simultaneously
while
Dolphin and Smalltalk/X ports are already on the way.
What's new in 2.0 since 1.0?
- input streaming for uploading large files
- output streaming (chunking) for sending large
files,support for Comet
- improved request framework
- Sport portability layer introduced for easier porting
- improved exception handling
- reorganization of packages
- extensive SUnit tests, all pass
Download and installation instructions are on Swazoo's
website
http://www.swazoo.org,
where you can find also short description of
streaming at http://www.swazo
o.org/streaming.html where a short
benchmark of throughput is also present.
A few words about it: Swazoo (Smalltalk Web Application Zoo)
is an open
source, vendor agnostic, dialect neutral Smalltalk HTTP
server with
resource and web request resolution framework, a fruit of a
first Camp
Smalltalk 2000 in San Diego. Its main features are:
* virtual site support
* clean web request resolution framework
* static web serving
* input streaming of HTTP requests (for large file
uploads)
* output streaming (chunking) for responding large files
and for Comet
I hope that you will find Swazoo useful and therefore help
us achieve
its main goal: to become a web server of choice for all
dialects of
Smalltalk.
Best regards
Janko Mivšek
maintainer of Swazoo
