Ruby Messaging Library

Ruby
1

I vaguely recall reading about a Ruby messaging library written by 2
Japanese developers which was put into high volume production usage. I’m
trying to gather more information about this piece of software as well
as
other Ruby messaging systems like ActiveMessaging.

I would be grateful if anyone on the list is able to remember the name
of
the library I’m referring to.

Do you mean inter-process messaging, intra-process messaging,
distributed
messaging? Because the only thing that comes to my mind is rinda, the
Ruby
implementation of Linda (distributed messaging).

Hi Douglas,

I’m a developer of AP4R and a Japanese.
As for AP4R documentation, besides wiki pointed out by
Muto-san(thanks!),
there is
PDF slide (in English)
http://rubyforge.org/docman/index.php?group_id=1765 , and
RDoc http://ap4r.rubyforge.org/doc/
on rubyforge.

AP4R is not yet used under production too much as far as I know.
But, as written in the slides, WWR (http://www.workingwithrails.com/)
uses
AP4R (almost just reliable-msg :-< ) , and I am now developing system
with
AP4R in my company (internal application).

I’m happy if email me about your questions, suggestions or anything !

Thanks in advance,
shino
