Hi, I'm basically attempting to use mina to act as a
proxy server something like discussed in the previous
example:
http://www.nabble.com/-MINA-Using-MINA-to-write-a-proxy-server-like-application-t656623.html
However, the case I have is not 1:1 on the client and
server session basis.
The situation I have involves a client which spawns
multiple processes, each opening its own connection to
my proposed mina server. The mina server itself has a
persistent fixed amount of connections to the actual
server to distribute the client requests with. The
client connections are short lived are only open to
process a single request while the mina->server should
always be open.
Client 1<---------|
| Persistent Conn 1
Client 2<--------|| |-------------->
Mina Server Actual Server
Client 3<--------|| |-------------->
| Persistent Conn 2
Client 4<---------|
The amount of client connections is variable but the
connections from mina to the actual server is always
fixed. My question is, what is the best way to demux
the responses from the actual server to the
appropriate client? One of the fixed mina->server
sessions may have several client->mina sessions
attached to it at one time. Is there something Mina
provides to do this or do I need to come up with some
home grown based version?
Thanks, S.D.
