Tsz Wo Nicholas Sze commented on HADOOP-12909: ---------------------------------------------- Thanks, [~vinodkv] and [~sseth]. HADOOP-11552 looks like a useful server side improvement. > Support asynchronous RPC calls > ------------------------------ > > Key: HADOOP-12909 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-12909 > Project: Hadoop Common > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: ipc > Reporter: Tsz Wo Nicholas Sze > Assignee: Xiaobing Zhou > > In ipc.Client, the underlying mechanism is already supporting asynchronous > calls -- the calls shares a connection, the call requests are sent using a > thread pool and the responses can be out of order. Indeed, synchronous call > is implemented by invoking wait() in the caller thread in order to wait for > the server response. > In this JIRA, we change ipc.Client to support asynchronous mode. In > asynchronous mode, it return once the request has been sent out but not wait > for the response from the server. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
