Drb Applications

Ruby

Hi

Can anybody recommend an open source software which uses drb? It would
be interesting to see how other people have solved their problems with
drb… (or other similar protocols).

Thanks!

I use drb in KirbyBase (http://netpromi.com/kirbybase_ruby.html) to
allow it to work in client/server mode.

ruby queue use a local drb server to do fork/exec jobs in another
process.
this allows a pseudo-fork to occur in the middle of an sqlite
transaction -
which is otherwise not allowed.
