Jeremy updated PROTON-1952:
---------------------------
Description:
In the amqp standard,
[link-credit|http://docs.oasis-open.org/amqp/core/v1.0/cos01/amqp-core-transport-v1.0-cos01.html#doc-flow-control]
is defined as: "the current maximum legal amount that the delivery-count can
be increased by". Only the receiver can set its value.
In the current proton API, we can only add to the link-credit. We cannot set it
(our need is to set it to a value less than the actual link-credit).
As to why we need this, we are trying to implement an asynchronous get with
timeout (by returning a std::future).
I understand that in the amqp standard, there are 2 supported modes of
delivery, and async get with timeout is not mentioned:
* [Synchronous get (with/without
timeout)|http://docs.oasis-open.org/amqp/core/v1.0/cos01/amqp-core-transport-v1.0-cos01.html#doc-idp494704]
* [Asynchronous
notifications|http://docs.oasis-open.org/amqp/core/v1.0/cos01/amqp-core-transport-v1.0-cos01.html#doc-idp502800]
Therefore, we're implementing it for its convenience to us (the client
receives the response/exception in his thread).
Problem arises when we start having timeouts. Briefly (I can give you more
details here if you want), having the ability to set the link-credit to a lower
value would facilitate our lives.
