High-level C++ client API.
--------------------------
Key: QPID-664
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/QPID-664
Project: Qpid
Issue Type: Bug
Components: C++ Client
Reporter: Alan Conway
Attached a proposal for a high-level C++ client API. The existing
client::Session class will be renamed Session_0_10 and remain as an internal
direct mapping of the 0_10 protocol. The new API is just a thin layer over
Session_0_10 providing:
- improved usability
- abstraction from specific protocol version
The usability improvements include
- Self-contained classes reflecting domain concepts (Queue, Exchange,
Subscriber, Subscription)
- simplification of obscure (and probably change-prone protocol) areas: E.g.
apply a simple flow control policy object rather than fiddling with
session.MessageFlow functions.
- Better memory safety, simpler thread management (these last points could be
integrated early into the existing API.)
Comments are most welcome, lets hone it before we implement it.
