29 It is often a pain to write a server program that supports graceful
30 restarts, with no resource leaks. Server::Starter, solves the problem
31 by splitting the task into two. One is start_server, a script provided
32 as a part of the module, which works as a superdaemon that binds to
33 zero or more TCP ports or unix sockets, and repeatedly spawns the
34 server program that actually handles the necessary tasks (for example,
35 responding to incoming commenctions). The spawned server programs
36 under Server::Starter call accept(2) and handle the requests.
38 To gracefully restart the server program, send SIGHUP to the
39 superdaemon. The superdaemon spawns a new server program, and if (and
40 only if) it starts up successfully, sends SIGTERM to the old server
43 By using Server::Starter it is much easier to write a hot-deployable
44 server. Following are the only requirements a server program to be run
45 under Server::Starter should conform to:
47 - receive file descriptors to listen to through an environment
49 - perform a graceful shutdown when receiving SIGTERM
51 A Net::Server personality that can be run under Server::Starter exists
52 under the name Net::Server::SS::PreFork.
