processing.net.* does not implement serverEvent

[anjchang]

I'm trying to rewrite the simple server code from Making Things Talk into pyprocessing. serverEvent doesn't seem to work, so I can't tell when clients have connected. Am I using serverEvent() wrong, or is this just not handled? Clients seem to just be able to connect just fine.

###a server that  listens for clients and prints what they say
###also sends the last client anything that's typed on the keyboard
###from Making things talk project 8

add_library( "net" )
port = 8080
myServer = None
clients = []

def setup():
    global myServer
    myServer = Server(this,port)
    println('Starting server on port 8080')

def draw():
    global myServer
    speakingClient = myServer.available()
    if (speakingClient != None):
        message = trim(speakingClient.readString())
        println(speakingClient.ip() + '\t' + message)

        if (message == 'exit'):
            clients.remove(speakingClient.ip())
            myServer.disconnect(speakingClient)

def serverEvent(myServer,thisClient):
    global clients
    println("we have a new client:" + thisClient.ip())
    clients.append(thisClient.ip())

def keyReleased():
    global myServer
    myServer.write(key)

Nevermind, i just decided to avoid serverEvent and just use the client's messages to let me know if something was happening. It works for progressing with the rest of the making things talk tutorial.
