TFixedFrameTransport
--------------------

                 Key: THRIFT-124
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-124
             Project: Thrift
          Issue Type: New Feature
            Reporter: Pete Wyckoff
            Priority: Minor


TFixedFrameTransport (TFFT) will write data to another transport in units of 
sub-frames that will be fit into frames consisting of:

A FrameHeader, 
N SubFrameHeaders, 
N SubFrameData Payloads
...

With each frame being the same size.  TFixedFrameTransport will checksum both 
the frame header and the subframe headers and will have the option of providing 
a checksum per subframe. Note that a sub-frame may span multiple frames.

See [https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-111] for the exact format of 
the headers.

The spec would look something like the following although it's sure to change a 
bit.

{code:title=TFixedFrameTransport}
// TFixedFrameHeader and TFixedFrameSubHeader are thrift generated

class TFixedFrameTransport {
  public TFixedFrameHeader(TFixedFrameHeader, i32 frameSize, TTransport otrans);
  public void writeSubFrame(TFixedFrameSubHeader, buf, length) { 
startSubFrame(subHeader), write(buf, length); }
  public void startSubFrame(TFixedFrameSubHeader);
  public void write(buf, length);  
  public TFixedFrameSubFrameHeader readSubFrameHeader() ;
  public TFrameHeader readFrameHeader();
  public i32 read(buf, length);
  public void bytesLeftInCurrentSubFrame();
}

{code}
