HZe - short for Holger Zeinert (holger DOT zeinert AT gmx DOT de)
I work in a software company mainly developing products for the automotive industry.
Years ago I decided to use
Tcl/Tk as
scripting language for our products because it
- is stable
- is actively maintained
- is available on Windows, most Unix and VMS
- it's simple and powerful
- it combines GUI and scripting
I never regret this decision, although in the meantime
Python,
Java, ... entered the scene. Still, I like Tcl/Tk most.
2002 I started a project developing a web based information system. I used
mod_dtcl for that (of course). Because of increasing load, we decided to switch to
FastCGI with Tcl Interface. Running several servers in parallel without initializing each page improved performance a lot. And running different servers (different processes) seems to be easier than having Tcl multithreaded as Apache module. Connection to an
Oracle database is done by
Oratcl.
