[JDEV] Server Side - Questions

Thu Nov 29 01:53:29 CST 2001

Hi All, I am trying to understand flow of control in the jabber server code( 
not a wise idea :-) ). The comments in mod_example.c explains that all the 
packets are sent jsm which will handover to the appropriate client (user) 
session. Then the modules are called to process the packets. So the client 
session is actually calling the modules to service the requests. Am I right 
?

Whenever server reads from a client socket in _mio_main (....), it calls the 
_mio_xml_parser(...) to parse it. Where do the packets go after they are 
parsed ? To jsm ? if yes how ?

I also have some other questions like how the ten MTQ threads are used. I 
have just began to read the code so some questions may sound silly. Thanks 
in advance.
