There has also been debate about whether or not mktap plugins are even a good<br>idea at all for new applications. At any rate, I don't think it receives the<br>same attention from the core developers that it once did. The moral seems to
<br>be that just because something is provided by Twisted does not mean it's a<br>best practice.</blockquote></span></div><div style="direction: ltr;"><div><br>Thanks for the reply.<br><br>So, if the docs tell us that this way is the way to use twisted, and they're wrong, where do we go to learn how to use twisted?
<br><br>The docs are quite clear about using application objects and making your code into a twisted 'plugin' rather than simply poking at the reactor (as in some of the quick-n-dirty tutorials).<br><br>I can certainly write my own persistence code, but I'm a little worried that more of the "best practices" presented by the docs are wrong. Should I still use twistd? Should I use the application object? Etc.
<br><br>Shorter (and somewhat snippier): how do we use twisted in our projects, if the docs are wrong?<br><br>I know that you personally aren't responsible to answer this question; I'm hoping some others might pipe in and point me to some other docs or other tutorials.
