ACE: Ajax Client Engine
Category: Library
Li Shen has released Ajax Client Engine (ACE), a Javascript component wrapper around XmlHttpRequest under the MIT license. Li also wrote an article on ACE for the December issue of the asp.netPro magazine, though you need to be a subscriber to view the article online.
The main featuers of ACE are:
- simple, object-oriented API with three main classes
- cross-browser support
- synchronous or asynchronous support
- callback arguments
- callback options, such as when the callback is called and when the request is really done
- optional tracing engine
- built-in optional caching service that will store a response for a specified period of time
- optional polling service for requests on a regular interval
- common callbacks provided for typical use cases
- exception handling
You can see the tracing in action at the examples, or just go right to the download it and try it out.
