  • blocking 6300 added

(In #6300) Etoys still uses direct IPv4 connections obtained from buddy properties (#4539). The plan was to switch to tubes by update.1 but we did not quite finish it.

Do you plan to use D-Bus or Stream tubes ?

Stream tubes - this allows us to reuse much of the existing code.

Changed 5 years ago by gdesmott

Any progress on this? We'd like to stop to expose IPv4 address (#6300) in the PS but are blocked on Etoys tube support.

Changed 5 years ago by bert

Still working on it, had to rewrite the Squeak D-Bus bindings first ... should be ready for update.2.

  • summary changed from Etoys still uses TCP to Use Tubes for Etoys collaboration

The rewritten D-Bus bindings are in now, but it turned out the Etoys collab stuff depends on unique IP addresses to identify peers. When switching to stream tubes, all peers appear as localhost. I'm changing it to use ip:port pairs instead. Should still be ready for 8.2.0.

Bert,

Is this coded?

Is it important for 8.2.0?

Thanks,

Greg S

Changed 5 years ago by bert

Yes, it is important for reliable collaboration. It is almost fully coded - the tubes work, the p2p can use ip:port now, I just need to put both together.
