RMI Streaming from server to client
-----------------------------------

                 Key: JBREM-776
                 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBREM-776
             Project: JBoss Remoting
          Issue Type: Feature Request
      Security Level: Public (Everyone can see)
    Affects Versions: 2.2.0.SP4
            Reporter: Greg Caulton


The logical inverse of existing JBoss streams implementation is needed to stream files from the server to the client.

CLIENT:
OutputStream out = ... (ByteArrayOutputStream or FileOutputStream as needed)
remotingClient = new Client(new InvokerLocator(streamLocatorURL));
remotingClient.connect();
remotingClient.invoke(fileOutput, parameter);

SERVER:
public Object handleStream(OutputStream stream, InvocationRequest request) {
   ... get file based on request.getParameter();
   ... standard write a file to the stream
}

On the server the bean would use the parameter to determine the file requested.  For example the parameter might be a primary key value to file meta data, or it could be a known filepath, or bytes read from a database.  Security can be handled at the application level by the bean.
