Paul Hammant's Blog: AltRMI - Transport over servlet
This is proving difficult to implement. I'm using Jetty in the
test-first development of this transport and Jetty is really
sweet.
The trouble is that URLConnection used on the client side only allows
one directional traffic, and the HTTP protocol does not like to have
duplex traffic. There are two HTTPClient utilities out
there. One in
Apache commons and one at http://www.innovation.ch/java/HTTPClient/ .
I'm not sure which is dominant. The Apache one uses
CommonsLogging
(which I am ideologically opposed to - more later). More work to
do I
guess.
