Joggame Server

Song Of The Day: Beautiful Day Artist: U2

Today, I am pleased to announce a spin-off of the open source AOLserver project for devices: Joggame Server (pronounced jog-gu-mE).

The technology, acquired by AOL in 1995 from NaviSoft, has a long history of technical achievement and innovation. It was one of the first to offer multi-threaded support. It was one of the first to embed an interpreter versus using the slower, and less efficient, CGI. For the iPhone it is one of the first web application development environments. Its ease-of-use, and long history of reliability, security, and cross-platform support, make it the perfect choice for the iPhone and other web-enabled devices.

With this new vision my hope is that the Joggame Server project will continue to carry the legacy forward.

iPhone AOLserver and Tcl Ports - part 2

Song Of The Day: Clown Artist: Korn

The AOLserver, binary port is here (i.e., with the launchctl directive plist), likely to be available on AppTapp soon.

If you download the AOLserver distribution you do not need the Tcl package if you don’t want. Within the AOLserver distribution the tcl distribution resides under the installation directory.

Sources (Tcl and nsd) are currently here.

This should go without saying :), but these packages are VERY experimental and you will be installing and using at your own risk.

iPhone AOLserver and Tcl Ports - part 1

Song Of The Day: Blind Artist: Korn

So what have I been up to the last few days…?

I ported Tcl 8.4.x and AOLserver 4.x to the iPhone. Tcl is already available via AppTapp and AOLserver will follow soon, hopefully.
