ROHTTPClientChannel

Overview

ROHTTPClientChannel implements the standard Client Channel for communicating with Remoting SDK servers via the HTTP protocol. It is also the channel used by the ROSimpleRemoteService.

asyncDispatch:  protected deprecated    (declared in ROClientChannel)

For internal use

Dispatches the given message asynchronously and returns an ROAsyncRequest reference.

This method relies on the internal method intAsyncDispatch:responseMessage: which implemenation depends on concrete client channel.

This method is deprecated. If you will need to dispatch some mesages manually, then please use asyncDispatch:withProxy:start or asyncDispatch:withProxy:startWithBlock: instead

- (ROAsyncRequest *) asyncDispatch:(id)aMessage

Parameters:

  • aMessage: instance of ROMessage that need to be dispatched

asyncDispatch:start:  protected deprecated    (declared in ROClientChannel)

For internal use

Prepares and return asynchronous request for dispatching the given message.

This method relies on the internal method intAsyncDispatch:responseMessage: which implemenation depends on concrete client channel.

This method is deprecated. If you will need to dispatch some mesages manually, then please use asyncDispatch:withProxy:start or asyncDispatch:withProxy:startWithBlock: instead

- (ROAsyncRequest *) asyncDispatch:(id)aMessage start:(BOOL)start

Parameters:

  • aMessage: instance of ROMessage that need to be dispatched
  • start: Boolean flag, If YES then it start dispatching request immediately. If NO, then request will start automatically. You will need to start it manually. Deffered starting asynchronous dispatching can be useful for additional configuring asynchronous request before running it.

asyncDispatch:withProxy:start:  protected    (declared in ROClientChannel)

For internal use

Prepares and return asynchronous request for dispatching the given message for given proxy.

This method relies on the internal method intAsyncDispatch:responseMessage: which implemenation depends on concrete client channel.

- (ROAsyncRequest *) asyncDispatch:(id)aMessage withProxy:(ROAsyncProxy *)proxy start:(BOOL)start

Parameters:

  • aMessage: instance of ROMessage that need to be dispatched
  • proxy: reference to the ROAsyncProxy which is stored in the result asynchronous request.

Later when asynchronous request completes, proxy can be used for obtaining request results. For example:

- (void) asyncRequestDidComplete:(ROAsyncRequest *)aRequest {
  ...
  if (aRequest.type == artGetDataTable) {
    NSData *data = [[request proxy] endGetData:aRequest];
    ...
  }
  ...
}
  • start: Boolean flag, If YES then it start dispatching request immediately. If NO, then request will start automatically. You will need to start it manually. Deffered starting asynchronous dispatching can be useful for additional configuring asynchronous request before running it.

asyncDispatch:withProxy:startWithBlock:  protected    (declared in ROClientChannel)

For internal use

Prepares and start asynchronous request with given completion block for dispatching the message for given proxy.

This method relies on the internal method intAsyncDispatch:responseMessage: which implemenation depends on concrete client channel.

- (ROAsyncRequest *) asyncDispatch:(id)aMessage withProxy:(ROAsyncProxy *)proxy startWithBlock:(void(^)(ROAsyncRequest *))block

Parameters:

  • aMessage: instance of ROMessage that need to be dispatched
  • proxy: reference to the ROAsyncProxy which is stored in the result asynchronous request.

Later when asynchronous request completes, proxy can be used for obtaining request results. For example:

- (void) asyncRequestDidComplete:(ROAsyncRequest *)aRequest {
  ...
  if (aRequest.type == artGetDataTable) {
    NSData *data = [[request proxy] endGetData:aRequest];
    ...
  }
  ...
}
  • block: completion block, will be called after asynchronous dispatching ends
