Pyro 2.8 available

[Irmen de Jong]

I'm glad to announce the latest version of Pyro, 2.8!
You can get it via http://pyro.sourceforge.net, then go
to the project homepage.

This is mostly a bugfix release. This likely is the last Pyro release in
the 2.x version series. The next release, 3.0, will have some major changes
and improvements.
Changes since 2.7 include: More complete docs, better example chapter in
docs, fixed ^C handling of chatbox examples, fixed protocol bug when both
checksum and compression were used, setup script should work again with
Win98, old bug in PyroC generated proxy code fixed.
 


What is Pyro?
Pyro is an acronym for PYthon Remote Objects. It is a basic Distributed
Object Technology system written entirely in Python.

It is extremely easy to implement a distributed system with Pyro, because
all network communication code is abstracted and hidden from your
application. You just get a remote Python object and invoke methods
on the object on the other machine.

Pyro offers you a Name Server, an Event Service, mobile objects, remote
exceptions, dynamic proxies, remote attribute access, automatic
reconnection, a detailed manual, and many examples to get you started
right away.
