Yes yes I know that this choice is not scalable and portable...but I only have 10 or at most 15 request...so I think that a process could be a solution..besides I need that each connection are separated from the other.. However, excuse but I'm a noob...for example..to obtain the listen socket: int listensd=socket(....); I have to do something like this?: boost::asio::ip::tcp::socket s; int listen sd=s.native_type(); ________________________________ Da: Igor R <boost.lists@gmail.com> A: boost-users@lists.boost.org Inviato: Mer 2 marzo 2011, 09:06:44 Oggetto: Re: [Boost-users] boost::asio multiprocess
Thank you for your reply,what do you mean with native_type ? is a boost function?
It's a member function of asio objects. Eg., calling yourSocket.native_type() gives you a native socket handle. In versions prior ro 1.46 it's called native_handle(), IIRC.
I need to make a multi process TCP Server..so I think it is mandatory to me to "parallelize" the server with process...are you sure that is enough to use the asynchronous model?
Well, I don't know where your requirements come from and what you do in your "process_it()" function. If it's an excercise in making multiple processes with fork(), or if you have heavy processing task and cannot enqueue it to a dedicated thread for some reason -- then you probably don't have a choice. But note that your solution is non-portable and not scalable. Think what happens with your server under high load - say, 10000 incoming requests. Are you sure launching 10000 processes would be a good idea? _______________________________________________ Boost-users mailing list Boost-users@lists.boost.org http://lists.boost.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/boost-users
