RPC-ExtDirect version 1.00 ========================== ABSTRACT RPC::ExtDirect is a Perl implementation for Ext.Direct remoting protocol used in ExtJS JavaScript framework by Sencha Inc. WHAT IS IT FOR? There are many RPC protocols out there; ExtJS framework provides yet another one. In short, it is a means of calling server side code from client side JavaScript without having to mess with HTML, forms, AJAX and stuff like that. Besides providing forward asynchronous data stream (client calls server), Ext.Direct also defines a mechanism for backward (server to client) event stream, also asynchronous. Add some perks like standartized exception handling, request batching and file uploads and you get an engine that greatly simplifies client to server interaction in JavaScript applications.
