[jboss-remoting-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Updated: (JBREM-1009) Streaming should work with packet-based channels as well as stream-based channels

Streaming should work with packet-based channels as well as stream-based channels --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBREM-1009 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBREM-1009 Project: JBoss Remoting Issue Type: Task Security Level: Public(Everyone can see) Components: r3 api Reporter: David Lloyd Assignee: David Lloyd Fix For: 3.0.0.Beta1 OutputStreams and Writers are trivially implemented using streams - writes to the remote object are simply propagated across to channel. Other types of streams are more difficult to implement this way. InputStream for example has two types of messages - a data chunk and an exception chunk. Because of this, some basic framing is necessary; with only support for streams, this framing must take place within the stream handler which is a pain to implement. So, a stream serializer should be able to register itself as a byte stream handler (using a StreamChannel) or a message stream handler (using a MessageChannel).
