Summary: Support asynchronous RPC calls Key: HADOOP-12909 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-12909 Project: Hadoop Common Issue Type: New Feature Components: ipc Reporter: Tsz Wo Nicholas Sze Assignee: Xiaobing Zhou In ipc.Client, the underlying mechanism is already supporting asynchronous calls -- the calls shares a connection, the call requests are sent using a thread pool and the responses can be out of order. Indeed, synchronized call is implemented by invoking wait() in the caller thread in order to wait for the server response. In this JIRA, we change ipc.Client to support asynchronous mode. In asynchronous mode, it return once the request has been sent out but not wait for the response from the server. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
