To answer your last question, R doesn't provide thread capabilities, so one cannot write a multi-threaded server in R. Hence, Rserve, Rsoap, and Rapache (others?) deal with concurrency by using the fork() system call (not available on windows) which clones the parent process, to handle multiple clients. -- Jeffrey Horner Computer Systems Analyst School of Medicine 615-322-8606 Department of Biostatistics Vanderbilt University ______________________________________________ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
