In this situation then wen we have a AVDL protocol definition. The documentation mentions Avro tools for generation.
But I need runtime protocol changes.

Can the generation of protocol classes be done automatically at runtime?

For RPC, specific is usually most convenient.  The generated interface
and classes can be used to create requests and make calls, while a
service can implement the interface.  Generic might be useful for
proxy-type RPC services, that can handle RPCs made in any protocol.

Hello,

We have got two ways of creating an RPC communication protocol from AVDL.

Generic:
https://github.com/matteobertozzi/Hadoop/blob/master/avro-examples/java/ipc/HTServer.java
Specific:https://github.com/phunt/avro-rpc-quickstart/blob/master/src/main/java/example/Main.java

Specific provide a custom implementation (it require code generation based
on avdl) while generic provide 'generic' implementation. What this *generic*
actually means in terms of a protocol specification and code use?

1. What is the difference between the two apart from code look?
2. I can not understand what would be a good example code showing the
advantages of Specific vs Generic responder?
3. When would be the good choice to use *generic* and when *specific (code
generation?)* responder?

thank you in advance for your time replying.

Mick
