[erlang-questions] misultin: handle disconnect

[Roberto Ostinelli]

hi michael,

try to use the code in the /examples directory instead, since the one
you are providing here is a specific user case, not recommended unless
you know exactly what you are doing.

that being said, misultin is not built to empower a comet application.
it does not provide events, like sockets being closed, to the http
handle_loop. instead of comet, it has been preferred to support
websockets, something misultin is quite good at.

if you need comet instead, you will be better off using misultin core
and build your own comet application over that.

cheers,

r.
