[jboss-remoting-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Updated: (JBREM-1026) Add service metadata

Add service metadata -------------------- Key: JBREM-1026 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBREM-1026 Project: JBoss Remoting Issue Type: Task Security Level: Public(Everyone can see) Components: r3 api Reporter: David Lloyd Fix For: 3.0.0.Beta1 A RequestHandlerSource (aka a forwarded service) needs methods to query static metadata, such as: 1) The presence or absence of ordering guarantees across the total path 2) Security information about the total path (encryption strength for example) 3) Path information (like a traceroute, for cost as well as diagnostic information; could include link cost, transport type & version, etc) 4) Possibly authentication information about the total path It should be possible to add new metadata types later on without interfering with backwards compatibility. So lack of a given metadata type must be considered to be possibly indicative of an older version along the path.
