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

> 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.
