POW 0.1.1 preview available

Posted in POW at 4:37 pm by David Kellogg

POW (Plain Old Webserver) 0.1.1 preview is ready for review. Here are the fixes and features.

* Data/DB directory retrieval
* Fixed Windows DB bug
* Supports HTTP 1.1 “Transfer-Encoding: chunked”
* Changed scoping rules to persist only the pow_server object

The last part means that the following will no longer be possible.

Page 1:

var a = 5;

Page 2:

document.writeln(a); // ERROR: a is not defined

The following variable, though, will persist for as long as the server is running:

pow_server.a = 5; // Persists indefinitely
