James E. King, III updated THRIFT-66: ------------------------------------- Attachment: ReleaseWaitingReplyThreadsOnDisconnect.patch Bugfix: when a remote end crashes, the local endpoint might have had user request threads blocking on a reply coming in which never would, and those threads would be blocked forever. The patch ReleaseWaitingReplyThreadsOnDisconnect.patch fixes this bug in the larger patch I submitted. > Allow multiplexing multiple services over a single TCP connection > ----------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: THRIFT-66 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-66 > Project: Thrift > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: C# - Library, C++ - Library, Cocoa - Library, Erlang - > Library, Java - Library, Perl - Library, Python - Library, Ruby - Library > Reporter: Johan Stuyts > Priority: Trivial > Attachments: CalculatorImpl.java, MultiplexTestClientMain.java, > MultiplexTestServerMain.java, ReleaseWaitingReplyThreadsOnDisconnect.patch, > SharedImpl.java, Thrift Endpoints and Channels.vsd, > ThriftCSharpEndpointsChannels.zip, ThriftMultiplexInvocationHandler.java, > TMultiplexServer.java, TMultiplexServer.py, TSimpleMultiplexServer.java > > > The current {{TServer}} implementations expose a single service on a port. If > an application has many services many ports have to be opened. This is > cumbersome because: > - you have to document which service is available on which port, and > remembering the port numbers is difficult > - to prevent the overhead of connection setup on each call, a client has to > maintain to many connections: at least one to each port > - it requires opening many ports on a firewall if one is between the client > and the server. > By multiplexing multiple services on a single port the problems above are > resolved: > - instead of a port number a symbolic name can be assigned to a service > - a client can maintain a small pool of connections to a single port > - only one port has to be opened on the firewall > The attached Java implementation simply wraps a normal {{CALL}} message with > a (new) {{SERVICE_SELECTION}} message. It is not necessary to modify or wrap > the response. No changes are needed to the generated classes. Only a new type > of server is introduced, and an invocation handler for a dynamic proxy around > the {{Client}} classes of services is provided for the client side. The > implementation does not handle communication errors (invalid data, timeouts, > etc.) yet. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
