Er, I think I said that that was a bad idea. That forces everyone to use the slow method, whether they need it or not. In my long post I said that modules like a network interface that would need queueing, could do it themselves. I also said that I thought having a thread per module was a bad idea, since that was forcing an inefficient structure that wasn't necessary, and didn't provided the type of thread control that would be most useful. At least, *I* think I said those things. -- Chris Gray cg#ami-cg,GraySage.Edmonton.AB.CA </PRE> <!--X-Body-of-Message-End--> <!--X-MsgBody-End--> <!--X-Follow-Ups--> <HR> <ul compact><li><strong>Follow-Ups</strong>: <ul> <li><strong><A NAME="00496" HREF="msg00496.html">[MUD-Dev] Re: OpenMUD: bus-based communications</A></strong> <ul compact><li><em>From:</em> Niklas Elmqvist <d97elm#dtek,chalmers.se></li></ul> </UL></LI></UL> <!--X-Follow-Ups-End--> <!--X-References--> <!--X-References-End--> <!--X-BotPNI--> <UL> <LI>Prev by Date: <STRONG><A HREF="msg00487.html">[MUD-Dev] Re: MUD verb handling (Was: DevMUD - thoughts.1)</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Next by Date: <STRONG><A HREF="msg00489.html">[MUD-Dev] Re: DevMUD - thoughts.1</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Prev by thread: <STRONG><A HREF="msg00500.html">[MUD-Dev] Re: DevMUD - thoughts.1</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Next by thread: <STRONG><A HREF="msg00496.html">[MUD-Dev] Re: OpenMUD: bus-based communications</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Index(es): <UL> <LI><A HREF="index.html#00488"><STRONG>Date</STRONG></A></LI> <LI><A HREF="thread.html#00488"><STRONG>Thread</STRONG></A></LI> </UL> </LI> </UL> <!--X-BotPNI-End--> <!--X-User-Footer--> <!--X-User-Footer-End--> <ul><li>Thread context: <BLOCKQUOTE><UL> <LI><strong><A NAME="00489" HREF="msg00489.html">[MUD-Dev] Re: DevMUD - thoughts.1</A></strong>, Chris Gray <a href="mailto:cg#ami-cg,GraySage.Edmonton.AB.CA">cg#ami-cg,GraySage.Edmonton.AB.CA</a>, Sun 25 Oct 1998, 16:16 GMT <UL> <li><Possible follow-up(s)><br> <LI><strong><A NAME="00491" HREF="msg00491.html">[MUD-Dev] Re: DevMUD - thoughts.1</A></strong>, Chris Gray <a href="mailto:cg#ami-cg,GraySage.Edmonton.AB.CA">cg#ami-cg,GraySage.Edmonton.AB.CA</a>, Sun 25 Oct 1998, 17:24 GMT <UL> <LI><strong><A NAME="00497" HREF="msg00497.html">[MUD-Dev] Re: DevMUD - thoughts.1</A></strong>, James Wilson <a href="mailto:jwilson#rochester,rr.com">jwilson#rochester,rr.com</a>, Sun 25 Oct 1998, 20:45 GMT </LI> </UL> </LI> <LI><strong><A NAME="00500" HREF="msg00500.html">[MUD-Dev] Re: DevMUD - thoughts.1</A></strong>, Chris Gray <a href="mailto:cg#ami-cg,GraySage.Edmonton.AB.CA">cg#ami-cg,GraySage.Edmonton.AB.CA</a>, Sun 25 Oct 1998, 22:38 GMT </LI> </UL> </LI> <LI><strong><A NAME="00488" HREF="msg00488.html">[MUD-Dev] Re: OpenMUD: bus-based communications</A></strong>, Chris Gray <a href="mailto:cg#ami-cg,GraySage.Edmonton.AB.CA">cg#ami-cg,GraySage.Edmonton.AB.CA</a>, Sun 25 Oct 1998, 16:03 GMT <UL> <LI><strong><A NAME="00496" HREF="msg00496.html">[MUD-Dev] Re: OpenMUD: bus-based communications</A></strong>, Niklas Elmqvist <a href="mailto:d97elm#dtek,chalmers.se">d97elm#dtek,chalmers.se</a>, Sun 25 Oct 1998, 19:52 GMT </LI> </UL> </LI> <LI><strong><A NAME="00486" HREF="msg00486.html">[MUD-Dev] openmud: open issues</A></strong>, James Wilson <a href="mailto:jwilson#rochester,rr.com">jwilson#rochester,rr.com</a>, Sun 25 Oct 1998, 14:37 GMT <UL> <LI><strong><A NAME="00585" HREF="msg00585.html">[MUD-Dev] Re: openmud: open issues</A></strong>, Vadim Tkachenko <a href="mailto:vt#freehold,crocodile.org">vt#freehold,crocodile.org</a>, Fri 30 Oct 1998, 04:10 GMT <UL> <LI><strong><A NAME="00590" HREF="msg00590.html">[MUD-Dev] Re: openmud: open issues</A></strong>, James Wilson <a href="mailto:jwilson#rochester,rr.com">jwilson#rochester,rr.com</a>, Fri 30 Oct 1998, 12:23 GMT </LI> </UL> </LI> </UL> </LI> </UL></BLOCKQUOTE> </ul> <hr> <center> [ <a href="../">Other Periods</a> | <a href="../../">Other mailing lists</a> | <a href="/search.php3">Search</a> ] </center> <hr> </body> </html>
