[jboss-dev-forums] [JBoss Remoting Development] - Re: Remoting 3 protocol SPI

[david.lloyd@jboss.com]

When creating an endpoint via Remoting.createEndpoint(), all the protocol transports that exist on the classpath will be automatically installed into the endpoint.  When creating an endpoint via AS, the deployer system will be used instead, but the results are the same - the protocols are installed automatically.

So essentially, if you remove the second and third lines from your first example, it should just work, as long as the protocol exists on the classpath.

You can still install additional protocols manually via Endpoint.addConnectionProvider().

I do want a better solution for servers though.  Problem is, there's really no truly generic representation for servers.  You can't just throw a SocketAddress and an OptionMap at it, because (a) it might not even involve a socket, and (b) you may need more information that can't be specified by an OptionMap (such as the Executor in your example).  Right now, if you are the one who registers the connection provider, you can use the return value from that method to get an interface to control the server, though the interface type is specific to the ConnectionProviderFactory.  But if not (e.g. if the provider was detected), you're S.O.L.  Perhaps a method on Endpoint like this could solve the problem:
T getProviderInterface(String uriScheme, Class<T> interfaceType)
