Sockets Communication on Server to active process

Mistress_Janna_Bros · June 11, 2009, 5:57pm

I have a (java-based) server running on the same machine as JRuby. So
the problem is not simply one of calling a class from Jruby. I need to
have JRuby communicate with the server, in as rapid a manner as
possible.

In considering all the ways this can be done, I think the BEST way may
be just a direct sockets connection. I am wondering:

A. If anyone has a better idea than this - and -
B. Is anyone aware of a Ruby class to do the sockets communicating from
the Ruby side?

Thanks, Janna B

You should look at EventMachine [1]. It can be built as java-native
gem. It provides a nice API for doing asynchronous socket communication.

Hi Janna,
have You considered RMI?
But it would include usage of java classes inside of Your ruby code i
think.

Best greetings,
