    Concurrent invoke calls

    login4jbr

      Hi

      What happens if two threads call the invoke() method (of the class org.jboss.remoting.Client) at the same time.

      What happens if a thread call invoke() while another remote invocation (done by another thread) is in progress.

      is this method thread safe?

      Thanx

          The intention is that Remoting is thread safe from the call to Client.invoke() through the return of a response. In the middle, though, is a call to the ServerInvocationHandler, where thread safety is the responsibility of the application.

            Oh, thank you very much.

            Then I must take care of the concurrency issues on the server side.

            I must program the SeverInvocationHandler implementation keeping in mind that multiple threads will execute the invoke() method concurrently.

            Is that right?
            Do I have to do anything else?

            But I think that I don't explained my original question clearly.

            I'll try to put it in other words:

            I wanted to know if the Client.invoke() method -in the client side- allows various threads to call concurrently.

            I've made an experiment with two threads calling Client.invoke() -the same Client instance- and the two threads do their call concurrently and happily.

            It's safe and good? is there any problem with this kind of use?

              That should be all.

              The Remoting code - client side and server side - is meant to be thread safe.
