first of all, thank you for your reply got it now. thanks a lot so in order to achive the 'flush db' task for my xmlrpc service, i had setup a timer loop (reactor.callLater()) monitoring the last-touch timestamp, and if its old, say 30secs before, then i will flush the DB. are there better way or i m on the right direction?

Hi
I have a xmlrpc service running in web2, application high lvl structure.
I wonder what should i do if i want to know when the client's connection is finished, so that i can flush some transaction.
HTTP is a stateless protocol. The TCP connection is completely unrelated to the Request & Responses. As a result web2 exposes no way of dealing with the underlying connections. There are lots of ways to shoehorn state into HTTP (sessions via cookies (or if you're using XML-RPC just an argument that is passed to all the commands.)) 99.9% of the time the underlying TCP connection is meaningless.
