digitalmars.D - anyone using msgpackrpc-d ? it's currently broken and doesn't seem

any help on this would be most welcome:
https://github.com/msgpack-rpc/msgpack-rpc-d/issues/16

Unfortunately I find the RPC support in D lacking. Having a good RPC
integration for D is key for production use of D where one wants to
integrate with other existing services (that could be written in other
languages for eg)

Thanks for the link; last answer was from 2014, and doesn't look like
the problem was close to being solved. Any help with how to address
this issue would be really appreciated!

Thrift?

Msgpack rpc with vibe.d works. We used it.
Its extremely fast, youll never get that speed with thrift. But 
also annoying, ghus we switched towards http + asdf

I don't think Thrift is fundamentally much different in 
performance than MessagePack, see e.g. 
https://github.com/thekvs/cpp-serializers. Do you have data to 
suggest otherwise? (I of course originally wrote Thrift/D, but 
that was long enough ago that I like to think I'm not 
particularly biased either way.)

As for the performance of the RPC server, I'd think that just 
hooking vibe.d sockets into Thrift should give you similar 
performance to msgpack-rpc/vibe.d.

you mean with msgpackrpc-d? If so, it works, until you run into
https://github.com/msgpack-rpc/msgpack-rpc-d/issues/16 (when server
sends >= 4090 bytes, client hangs forever).


 we switched towards http + asdf


not sure what asdf is?

I assume its this.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Scientific_Data_Format

A file format with a YAML header followed by binary or ascii 
data. Human readable in design but still has binary/ascii data.

Technically its just a block based binary file format but they 
replaced the header with a human readable header, instead of a 
binary header.

An alternative, and quite fast in C++ according to one of the 
answers here, is Cap'n'proto.

There is a D implementation here:
