We're using DWR 2 in projects developed in our company and as long as we're not having many browser clients due to being in a closed environment, we're interested in using the Comet technology for reverse AJAX.
Is there any chapter with working examples about it in your book? In the excerpt says that readers will learn Comet capabilities of DWR 2, but I would like to know how "deep" are these knowledges. Thanks!

Yes, there is two applications that use COMET. One is specifically designed to demonstrate COMET, the other uses it for one relatively small feature. I'd say the former is pretty in-depth, and later is still pretty useful, although definitely not as intensive.

The one specifically for COMET by the way is a game, and it shows how to do something that I've never seen demonstrated anywhere: how to spawn a background thread and let it update the client. This is something that's clearly not only good for games

Thanks for your reply. I'll talk with my boss today in order to buy a copy of your book, 'cause I find interesting having practical examples of a feature we're needing.
