I’m a little confused on how APE (Ajax Push Engine) works.
Some explanations would be awesome, thanks!
APE uses a independent HTTP/Comet server that allows, for example, long-polling. It needs some configuration made to the Apache server running beside it. It uses as server-side javascript framework for the development of modules.
On the client side of things it uses a javascript framework that receives information sent by the APE server, handles data, and send back the users requests.
When the page is loaded a new client is created with
var client = new APE.Client();and from then on the client is connected to the server.More information here
