This software allows users to combine multiple connections into a single process, making it more efficient and streamlined.
Net::Server::Multiplex is a Perl software module that provides the capability to multiplex several connections within a single process. This feature is useful for handling multiple connections simultaneously with ease.
The module's syntax is straightforward and easy to use. It offers a SYNOPSIS that includes a sample package called MyPlexer. This package utilizes the Net::Server::Multiplex module and declares a sub-routine called mux_input, where code can be written to handle inputs.
One caution when using this module is that it should only be used with protocols that can quickly respond on a packet by packet basis. If a response takes a while or an unknown period of time to determine, all other connections established will block until the response completes. Therefore, if this scenario may occur, this personality option should be avoided.
The Net::Server::Multiplex module combines the best features of Net::Server, such as server listen socket setup, configuration file processing, safe signal handling, build-in inet style STDIN/STDOUT handling, logging features, deamonization and pid tracking, and restartability-SIGHUP) with the best features of IO::Multiplex, which provides automatic buffered IO and per-file-handle objects. This combination results in an easy-to-use interface that simplifies the development of applications using multiplexing technology.
