I'm looking for a RPC library in Python that can keep its TCP connection alive for the duration of a user's login session. The reason is, each user login to the application server will impose a single dedicated database connection, and a TCP disconnect will indiciate application server to then destroy the database connection properly.
Thanks. background: I currently uses builtin XMLRPC library in Python, but since the connection is not being kept-alive, the only way application server know that it should destroy databaase connection is via 1) User doing logoff which trigger calling RPC logoff, and 2) a user activity timeout using monitoring thread. Problem is, client can't guarantee that it will send logoff RPC (ie: killed/reboot), and timeout can not be too short or it will auto-logoff too early. -- dsw -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
