Software here is provided as example of making some interesting
things and applications using the Tcl threading extension.
Currently, following packages are supplied:
tpool/ Example Tcl-only implementation of thread pools.
The threading extension includes an efficient
threadpool implementation in C. This file is
provided as a fully functional example on how this
functionality could be implemented in Tcl alone.
phttpd/ MT-enabled httpd server. It uses threadpool to
distribute incoming requests among several worker
threads in the threadpool. This way blocking
requests may be handled much better, w/o halting
the event loop of the main responder thread.
In this directory you will also find the uhttpd.
This is the same web-server but operating in the
event-loop mode alone, no threadpool support.
This is good for comparison purposes.
cmdsrv/ Socket command-line server. Each new connection
gets new thread, thus allowing multiple outstanding
blocking calls without halting the event loop.
To play around with above packages, change to the corresponding
directory and source files in the Tcl8.4 (or later) Tcl shell.
Be sure to have the latest Tcl threading extension installed in
your package path.
