[ANN] BackgrounDRb 1.0.3 release ( Requiem for a dream )

Hi Folks,

BackgrounDRb 1.0.3 is available now. This release contains several bug
fixes, cleanups, test case coverage and brand new documentation.

A brief ChangeLog:

2008-02-28 hemant kumar hemant@shire

* fixed some meory leaks.

* Implemented cleaner API for invoking tasks in workers

* Updated the documentation

2008-02-25 hemant kumar hemant@shire

* Commited Patch by Alex which lets BackgrounDRb to have command line

arguments and loading of specific environments
through command line argument.

2008-02-14 hemant kumar hemant@shire

* Added TestCases for Cron Triggers, Meta Workers and stuff. We are

heading towards proper code coverage with test/spec.

* Added preliminary support for starting a worker on demand through

scheduler. What it means is, when you have a worker which is getting
scheduled very less frequently and you don’t want the worker to
persist, you can ask BackgrounDRb to restart the worker on each
schedule.

* Fixed some unreported issues with writing data to socket between

workers and stuff.

* Fixed issues with too many open connections, because connections

were not getting closed. BackgrounDRb now opens only one connection,
which is
reused throughout the lifecycle of rails application.

* Fixed all outstanding issues with Cron triggers, BackgrounDRb now

explicitly depends on “chronic” gem.

* Removed Framework directory and BackgrounDRb now explicitly depends

on packet gem.

We also did lot of work on documentation and new docs are available at:

http://backgroundrb.rubyforge.org

Credits:

  • Dale cook for helping out with documentation.
  • Alex for awesome patches.
  • Ezra and Skaar for taking BackgrounDRb so far.
  • Francis Cianfrocca for EventMachine and inspiration.

Let them talk of their oriental summer climes of everlasting
conservatories; give me the privilege of making my own summer with my
own coals.
