Hi Ulrich,



Thanks for the thorough explanation - the idea of merging the server code
back to moses is great.

Apart from this (and I know is is a huge workload), were there any changes
in the thread support? I know this part had some limitations ? as
discussed on the forum.



Kind regards,

Tomas

Hi Tomas,



the plan is to fold server capabilities into the main moses executable. In
fact, that has already happened (in the sense that you can run the main
moses executable in server mode), but functional equivalence with the old
code has not been tested.



There are currently no server tests included in the regression tests, so I
left the old code mostly intact (adjusting only for changes in the API of
functions called) for legacy reasons, but adding new functionality to
mosesserver is extremely strongly DIScouraged.



Supplying regression tests for server functionality, on the other hand, is
equally strongly ENcouraged. In a nutshell, what you get back from calling
mosesserver and moses --server should be identical.



The long-term plan is to offer through RPC calls (almost) everything that
moses offers in batch mode (i.e., send search and output parameters through
json/RCP calls and have them noticed and respected). Notice the "long-term"
there.



So mosesserver is on its way out, and moses --server-port=<port> --server
will replace the old call to mosesserver.



Best regards - Uli

Dear all,



I have spotted there were numerous commits in the server side development -
could the developers share the news/goals with the forum? I think it
might be interesting for more users ? especially those out of core team.



Thank you,
