allow chaining of marshaller/unmarshallers ------------------------------------------ Key: JBREM-315 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBREM-315 Project: JBoss Remoting Issue Type: Feature Request Security Level: Public(Everyone can see) Components: marshall Affects Versions: 1.4.0 final Reporter: Tom Elrod I was thinking of paired marshaller/unmarshaller, which would be beneficial for more than just this example (compressing payload comes to mind). Would like to be able to declare a chain of marshallers. For example: <marshallers> <marshaller>org.jboss.remoting.marshall.CompressedMarshaller</marshaller> <marshaller>org.jboss.remoting.marshall.InvocationMarshaller</marshaller> <marshaller>org.jboss.remoting.marshall.CountingMarshaller</marshaller> </marshallers> <unmarshallers> <unmarshaller>org.jboss.remoting.marshall.InvocationUnMarshaller</unmarshaller> <unmarshaller<org.jboss.remoting.marshall.CompressedUnMarshaller</unmarshaller> of course packaging and order may not be correct in this example. Just trying to show how would be nice to configure the chain that is used and that would not require to by symmetrical if didn't want to. In this example, the CompressedMarshaller would compress the payload, then write to the InvocationMarshaller, which would write to the CountingMarshaller, which would then keep track of number of bytes written and send notifications as was being written. On the server side, might not need to know number of bytes being read, so would just have the InvocationUnMarshaller, then CompressedUnMarshaller to uncompress the payload.
