Re: A case in favor of separate repos for language bindings
While I'm in favor of breaking out the bindings (actually, I'd like to see wider changes to the overall structure of proton, specifically proton-c. But I won't thread-jack - I'll start a separate thread). However - I think the python binding is the one binding where it may not be practical, sadly.

It won't be the same. The reason is that we're currently ensuring that proton-c doesn't break the bindings 'master' version. This is being done on the assumption that bindings will be released along with proton-c and there'll be a binding release per every proton-c minor. The above is not an ideal scenarion in my opinion. Ideally, we'd have a release of the bindings that will be able to track several minor releases of proton-c, but this will probably come later once proton-c stabilizes a bit more. However, I believe the current structure allows for breaking changes to land because it tests things against master only rather than making sure older, still maintained, versions are not being broken. Going back to the proposal, I think the circular dependency is not really necessary and we could just have the python bindings being installed. The installed version can either be the current master branch (pip knows how to install from git) or the latest stable version. Furthermore, we could even have a list of versions that we want to test against. I don't see how this would work in the case of proton-c (or proton-j) API changes. Robbie raises that point, and I don't see how this would work in practice with the bindings being out-of-tree (and the unit tests being implemented in python). Specifically: Proton-c adds a new API. That new API cannot be tested using the python unit tests until the python binding is updated. So the dev would have to also update the python binding and juggle the two in order to complete testing. One way to address this: stop developing unit tests in python. Instead, going forward all new proton-c tests should be done in C and put in the existing proton-c/tests dir. See my next point: To expand the above issue a bit more, I think it's wrong to have the python tests as part of the in-tree tests for proton-c. I agree with this point, though I suspect we won't do it due to inertia alone. I think each binding and language implementation (Java/C) should have their own in tree unit tests written in the implementation language. Each binding should have just enough tests to test the binding itself - not the underlying C code. The C code should have its own unit tests, written in C. Doing the above would simplify and, in the case of python, speed up the unit test runs. Currently, the python unit tests may be repeated several times: once under cmake, and, if tox is installed, once for each version of python available on the system. That can be fixed by configuring tox to just run a subset of the unit tests, but since the unit tests are written to exercise more than just the python interface we'd have to be careful selecting the proper subset for python. But... well.. inertia. Ideally, this should be the work of a CI system responsible for doing integration tests. Not saying we should solve this issue now but the proposed structure allows for it to happen. Nope. There has to be an in-tree set of unit tests that devs run (and pass) before any modifications are pushed. Full stop. Good or bad, this project doesn't have the CI

I can see certain benefits to such a separation, mainly for folks interested only in the bindings, but if I'm honest I'm not sure those outweigh the additional complication it seems it may bring in some of the other areas.

Releasing (in terms of source, here at Apache) seems like it would become more 'interesting' though, with potential again for the bindings needing proton-c (+proton-j) updates, but proton-c (+proton-j) needing the bindings updates for updated tests. I guess that might point to splitting the python tests out on their own as well so it depended on both separately. Perhaps I'm overthinking this though; how would you see some of those things working? I also can't say that I'd be a particular fan of using submodules, most of the things I've read about or tried with them have been a turnoff...but I'm mostly skipping over that for now.

I think qpid-proton has reached the point where it's mature enough to have some of the bindings promoted to having their own repos. More importantly, I believe these bindings are mature enough and ready to build a community on their own. Lets take the python bindings, for instance. I've been contributing to the python bindings quite a bit in the last couple of months. The bindings went from depending on cmake for tests to having their own, still dependant on proton-test, test suite that is self-maintained. Furthermore, the python bindings went from depending on cmake to be built to being self-built using python's internal build system. It's still possible - and in fact, it still happens - to build these drivers running cmake, although it's, in my personal opinion, not recommended. As you can see from the above, the python bindings depend on proton-c but they don't need to live in the same codebase. Therefore, I've prepared a small POC to show case this repo structure: - https://github.com/FlaPer87/test-python-qpid-proton The above repo contains the python-qpid-proton code. As you can tell from the commit history, not many changes were required to set it up. The relevant bits of this repo, I believe, are the ones related to the submodule. The qpid-proton submodule points qpid-proton's master branch in the test-python-qpid-proton branch, whereas in the 0.10 branch, it tracks qpid-proton's 0.10.x. This is important for the bindings to keep track of the right code/release/tests. - https://github.com/FlaPer87/qpid-proton/tree/submodules The above is a fork of the qpid-proton repo we use already but rather than having the python-qpid-bindings in tree, it just tracks the master branch. (I created a `submodules` branch because I didn't want to mess with the master branch in my fork). I don't think tracking the binding in the qpid-proton repo is necessary but I see how it's useful to avoid introducing breaking changes on drivers. To be more precise, I don't think the above is necessary because if we are testing bindings in cmake to make sure we don't break backwards compatibility, we could simply install the latest stable version and test against that, rather than testing against the latest binding's master, which could, but shouldn't, be broken. I wouldn't probably advocate for the above to applied to every binding we have since some of them might not be ready for this but I definitely want to advocate to make this happen for the python binding (and other bindings). This structure will make it easier to mainting bindings, to build a community around these bindings - I contribute more to the python binding than proton-c. It'll also help keeping a clean history for each project and to issue binding releases, therefore creating tags for bindings, as needed. I get it's worked well so far and probably some of you won't be happy with this proposal but, git is powerful enough to support the above structure, which is ideal for these kind of projects. Correct me if I'm wrong but I believe the current structure also comes from the old times when qpid-proton used to be in

Re: proton-j tests failing on master?
Seems to be working here, and passed in CI on all the runs from commits yesterday: https://builds.apache.org/view/M-R/view/Qpid/job/Qpid-proton-j/ NoSuchMethodError is an interesting one. I think code in that area will have changed with Bozo's recent commit, but the only likely way that should cause issues is if something stale is in the loop, otherwise I'd expect compilation issues. I tend only to see NoSuchMethodError when running Eclipse and MAven (CLI) builds in the same tree at the same time and they can trip each other up. Other than that, not really.

One point - I'm a little confused about your advice regarding pn_object_decref: The proton C API has standard reference counting rules (but see [1] below) * A pointer returned by a pn_ function is either borrowed by the caller, or the caller owns a reference (the API doc says which.) * The owner of a reference must call pn_object_decref() exactly once to release it. Really? What about those proton objects that have a pn_X_free() method? I believe the corresponding pn_X() allocation methods pass back an owning reference to the object. If a pn_X_free() exists (and the user never calls pn_object_incref() on the object), shouldn't the user use the pn_X_free() method instead? Maybe the doc should make that distinction, e.g.: * if an object of type pn_X_t has a corresponding pn_X_free() method, call the pn_X_free() method to release your reference to the object. * otherwise, if you have called pn_object_incref() on the object, you must call pn_object_decref() on the object to release your reference. From skimming the source, I believe pn_x_free looks at the refcount itself and behaves like pn_object_decref without the if (--refcount=0) pn_x_free(me) So in theory they *should* work together. The proton lib has no way of knowing whether the last thing to release an object will be an internal decref or a pn_x_free from the user, so I sure *hope* they work together. However I did want to make the point that you should EITHER use refcounts only OR free only, not both. Even if it works today your code or your head may explode later. IMO normal C code (including bindings to languages without finalizers like Go) should use free only, bindings to automated memory languages like python and soon C++ should use refcounts only. Of course the difference between theory and practice is that in theory they are the same and in practice they are different.

I still hold out hope of eventually allowing multiple threads processing separate connections concurrently. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
