Dear Thiago,

Your concern is regarding Spec or Iotivity implementation? AFAIK, in Spec
CoAP serialization over TCP is not mandatory. It has its own mandates only
if implemented.



Regards

Dwarka

Subject: [dev] TCP must be optional



Hello all



I'm seeing a few changes go about CoAP over TCP and I'm wondering what those
are for.



Please make sure that TCP support remains forever optional in IoTivity. No
device should be required to have it, as we'll have both networks and
operating systems that lack TCP support. That means no feature can depend on
TCP and must work over UDP (unless the feature itself is optional). Any TCP
support must be negotiated after getting the capabilities of both end-points
as well as any intermediaries along the way.
