We have some pretty significant matrix processor apps made with APL at the company.
I'd really like to bring this functionality to our web apps, but it seems HTTP interface and external APIs are not available in these implementations. How can you use ELi, or any APL, with a web app?
ELI site is down at the moment, but I read couple of their docs through google cache. There is support of compiling into C, but what about support for C interface? Or HTTP out of the box?
- JoachimSchipper 12y agoCGI - or, if you insist, FastCGI - works surprisingly well in 2014.
- jarpineh 12y agoWell, yes. Simple solutions work too. I was burned trying to write sophisticated Python stuff with plain CGI back in the days of Apache 1.3.
- JoachimSchipper 12y agoCGI does need something that can start in at most one geological age, yes. FastCGI is, well, faster, and is pretty simple as long as you don't support multiple concurrent requests to a single backend.
