[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Created: (JGRP-717) Message ordering protocol for TCP unicasts

Message ordering protocol for TCP unicasts ------------------------------------------ Key: JGRP-717 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JGRP-717 Project: JGroups Issue Type: Feature Request Reporter: Brian Stansberry Assigned To: Bela Ban With the introduction of a thread pool in the TCP protocol, the ability to relying on TCP/IP to guarantee ordering of unicast messages is lost. See JGRP-716. Solution is to add UNICAST to TCP-based stacks that use a thread pool. This is not ideal since UNICAST adds overhead for reliable transmission (sending ACKs, retaining sent messages for retransmission) and this overhead is unnecessary with TCP. Request is for a protocol with the message ordering functionality of UNICAST but without the reliable transmission features. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
