HTTP Streaming (or Chunked vs Store & Forward)

The standard way of understanding the HTTP protocol is via the request reply pattern. Each HTTP transaction consists of a finitely bounded HTTP request and a finitely bounded HTTP response.

However it's also possible for both parts of an HTTP 1.1 transaction to stream their possibly infinitely bounded data. The advantages is that the sender can send data that is beyond the sender's memory limit, and the receiver can act on

A Primer on Ruby Method Lookup

Method lookup is a simple affair in most languages without multiple inheritance. You start from the receiver and move up the ancestors chain until you locate the method. Because Ruby allows you to mix in modules and extend singleton classes at runtime, this is an entirely different affair.

I will not build contrived code to exemplify the more complicated aspects of Ruby method lookup, as this will only serve to confuse the matter.

When you pass a message to an object, here is how Ruby finds what method to call:

1. Look within singleton class

Dependency Injection in Ruby 07 Oct 04

Introduction

At the 2004 Ruby Conference, Jamis Buck had the unenviable task to explain Dependency Injection to a bunch of Ruby developers. First of all, Dependency Injection (DI) and Inversion of Control (IoC) is hard to explain, the benefits are subtle and the dynamic nature of Ruby make those benefits even more marginal. Furthermore examples using DI/IoC are either too simple (and don’t convey the usefulness) or too complex (and difficult to explain in the space of an article or presentation). I once attempted to explain DI/IoC to a room of Java programmers (see onestepback.org/articles/dependencyinjection/), so I can’t pass up trying to explain it to Ruby developers.

Thanks goes to Jamis Buck (the author of the Copland DI/IoC framework) who took the time to review this article and provide feedback.

What is Dependency Injection?
