this may be an option but i'd rather prefer users sticking to this pattern as suggested by Dan earlier on for transports like Corba
or non-Servlet 3/not Jetty-aware HTTP ones :
WebServiceContext context;
public String greetMe(String arg) {
ContinuationSupport contSupport = (ContinuationSupport)
context.get(ContinuationSupport.class.getName());
if (contSupport == null) {
//continuations not supported, must wait
return jmsGreeter.greetMe(arg);
}
....
}
In other words if a transport is not 'natively' async or can not handle suspended requests like Jetty/servlet3 aware HTTP transport
can, then we won't even provide any ContinuationSupport wrappers...
Cheers, Sergey
We may want the continuation support to work in both case. This is
the case in jetty, and we may want to mimic the same kind of behavior
in case some transports do not support continuations.
In such a case, the continuation simply blocks and waits for a call to
resume(), in which case, the thread is unlocked and the processing is
resumed.

I've added a simple HTTPS test and with HTTPS we have no luck at the moment,
CxfJettySslSocketConnector extends Jetty SslSocketConnector and calling
continuation.suspend(timeout) simply blocks the calling thread.
I've checked the archives and I believe at a time
SslSelectChannelConnector[1] was considered unstable so instead a blocking
SslSocketConnector was picked up.
Any thoughts on what would it take to upgrade CxfJettySslSocketConnector to
use SslSelectChannelConnector ?
Thanks, Segey

Question : how will SMX CXF Binding Component interact with (Jetty)
continuations when dealing with CXF-originated invocations ? The
Continuation wrappers will be available through an internal CXF input
Message and through JAXWS WebServiceContext (or JAXRS one later on) - will
CXF BC be able to get hold of such wrappers ? If yes then I guess we have
no problems at all ?
Yes, I think so, get continuation from cxf message
(org.apache.cxf.message.Message) is fine for CxfBcConsumer.
super.
I've just copied the relevant code only to sandbox as I didn't manage to
create a branch :

Some comments. You can see in :

7. System tests :
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/cxf/sandbox/2.2.x-continuations/systests/src/test/java/org/apache/cxf/systest/jaxws/continuations
See the server code on how the test code interacts with continuations
through wrappers :
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/cxf/sandbox/2.2.x-continuations/systests/src/test/java/org/apache/cxf/systest/jaxws/continuations/HelloImplWithWrapppedContinuation.java
and how it does so directly
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/cxf/sandbox/2.2.x-continuations/systests/src/test/java/org/apache/cxf/systest/jaxws/continuations/HelloImplWithContinuation.java
check
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/cxf/sandbox/2.2.x-continuations/systests/src/test/java/org/apache/cxf/systest/jaxws/continuations/jetty-engine.xml
on how a jetty engine on a specific port can be told to ignore
continuations which are supported by default if true is set or that
attribute is omitted (not used in the test though)
Ok - you can now see it it so shoot :-) Comments are welcome
