Allow stream factory to be specified for all transports ------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBREM-639 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBREM-639 Project: JBoss Remoting Issue Type: Feature Request Security Level: Public(Everyone can see) Reporter: Tim Fox Assigned To: Ron Sigal Normally marshallers will receive the raw underlying transport Input/OuputStream. In some cases we want to wrap this in a different stream, e.g.in the case of JBossMessaging we want this wrapped in a DataInput/DataOutputStream. This is accomplished by specifiying a new Client/ServerSocketWrapper in the socket transport URI params which creates the DataInput/OutputStream. This works fine for the socket transport, but does not work for other transports which do not use SocketWrappers. E.g. JBM needs to use the HTTP transport too, and needs the underlying stream wrapped in a DataOutput/InputStream. The current remoting implementation will pass in the underlying stream to the marshaller when the HTTP transport is used, which means we have create and wrap a new DataInput/OuputStream on each invocation request and response which may have performance implications. Suggestion is to allow a InputStream/OuputStream factory to be specified for ANY transport, not just the socket transport. Suggestion is to allow the stream factory to be specified in the URI params, e.g. &streamFactoryClass=org.jboss.tim.MyStreamFactory, and this to be allowed for any transport. If factory is not specified then raw stream is passed into marshaller.
