Hey everyone, I'm new to Ruby and to the mailing list, so go easy.
Basically, I have to POST to a certain url, then I wait for a response.
The catch is that I have to do this to two urls at once. Both of them
may respond to me almost instantly, or they may take up to 10 seconds to
respond. I need to have a post to both of these running at all times to
catch incoming events. I will also need to post to other urls at the
same time that these are running. So, I need to find a way to run these
two posts in the background constantly. From what I've read, ruby
threads will hang on a command like this, since the interpreter does not
have control. Can anyone help (or understand) me?
Thanks,
Ivan
