auction demonstration
|
This auction application is a demonstration of an
some of the features of Cometd Oort. The site uses
cometd to dynamically distribute auction bids and chat about items. The Oort cloud mechanism
is used to distribute these events in a cluster (you must set the oort.cloud init parameter of
the Oort servlet in web.xml so that other nodes are discovered).
To use the demo:
- Logon using any username
- When bids are made against items, these are published on
a CometD channels.
- Chat about items is also distributed with CometD channels.
- If a Chat message is preceeded with 'name::' then the message is sent
privately to that user using the Oort Seti service to find the user in
the cluster
- If you connect to the auction from multiple windows/tabs from the same
browser, then one of them will work in polling mode and have greater latency.
For best effect, user two browers to test.
