Alan Conway created PROTON-1988: ----------------------------------- Summary: [cpp] streamable message support Key: PROTON-1988 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PROTON-1988 Project: Qpid Proton Issue Type: Improvement Components: cpp-binding Affects Versions: proton-c-0.26.0 Reporter: Alan Conway
C++ API support for streaming large messages in chunks (too large to fit entire message in memory) The C link-level API does support streaming messages in chunks, but the C message encoder/decoder and the proton::message type do. Provide an alternative (or extended) C++ message type with a byte-stream API to send/receive the body data in chunks, without every requiring the entire body to be held in memory. Use cases: # Only the message body need be streamed. Properties are encoded/decode as a unit before sending/receiving any of the body. Most client/endpoint applications would work this way. # The entire message, headers, properties and all, need to be streamed, with support for partial decoding of an incoming message and efficient pass thru (incoming to outgoing without decode/re-encode). Only advanced intermediaries are likely to need this (e.g. this is what dispatch router does.) -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@qpid.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@qpid.apache.org
