Re: [JBoss-dev] new PooledInvoker: speeds up invocations

[Scott M Stark]

It should be possible to route invocations over the incoming channel, but it cannot be a requirement. This does not imply the invocation interfaces are bi-directional however. There simply needs to be the ability to compose the invokers such that there is a shared communications channel.   xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Scott Stark Chief Technology Officer JBoss Group, LLC xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx ----- Original Message ----- From: Victor Langelo To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, November 15, 2002 7:11 PM Subject: Re: [JBoss-dev] new PooledInvoker: speeds up invocations Hiram Chirino wrote: Hiram Chirino wrote: > Anyways.

There is no reason server to client communication has to go over the back channel of a client to server I might have said this before, but there is one reason it's a nice feature: This allows callback to clients that are sitting behind a firewall. Let me agree with Hiram. I would add it is essential to use the client connection if the client network is using NAT (network address translation). With the advent of new security measures, many of our clients are adding firewalls and NAT. The worst case is when the server has a public IP and the local LAN clients are on the otherside of a NAT router. --Victor
