stack commented on HBASE-12597:
-------------------------------
On your patch, what if RpcClient was the interface and the current RpcClient
was moved to be a RpcClientImpl? RpcClient is marked
@InterfaceAudience.Private so you are free to change it (no one should be
referencing other than hbase internals)
Add a license to head of the file RpcClientInterface
Do we need a start in the Interface? Or does calling createBlockingRpcChannel
serve this purpose?
In below, it takes a hostname and a port where createBlockingRpcChannel takes a
ServerName. They should be the same?
public void cancelConnections(String hostname, int port);
Otherwise, looks good.
> Add RpcClient interface and enable changing of RpcClient implementation

>
> Currently HConnectionImplementation works with the included RpcClient which
> is a direct implementation and not defined by an interface.
> It would be great to be able to swap out the default RpcClient with another
> implementation which can also be controlled by the default
> HConnectionImplementation.
> Suggested changes:
> - Create a RpcClient interface which defines all the ways
> HConnectionImplementation interacts with an RPC client. Like getting a
> blocking protobuf service interface or closing the client.
> - Define which RpcClient implementation to construct by setting a
> configuration variable which defaults to the current RpcClient.
> - Possibly create an abstract RpcClient class to only load all the basic Rpc
> layer configurations to be used in an implementation.
> Why? It enables experimentation with RpcClients which could enable new
> features or could be more performant than the included client.
> I created a new RpcClient implementation based on Netty which can also be
> called asynchronously. It would be great to also be able to use this
> RpcClient in all the default ways and tests to see if there are any issues
> with it.
