MINA design question

[Michael Bauroth <mi...@falcom.de>]

Hi,

I have only a small question:

I want to implement a behaviour of a command queue. This means, that I 
want to send sequentially a lot of commands one by one. Each of the 
commands should be sent only, if a response from the other side comes in 
for the previous command.

For this part the trafficmask would be the best choice, or?

But what is, when I want additionally store the commands in an internal 
queue, so that if a timeout occurs, I can send the same command once 
more or if the response says all is correct I can delete this command 
and process with the next send?

Do you have an idea, how can I solve this behaviour in a Mina correct 
way? Any help is very appreciated!!!

Regards
Michael

You don't need to use traffic mask in this case.  You can simply want for
the response of the previous request in messageReceived, and write another
request there.  The only exception is that you have to write the first
request in sessionOpened().  That's all.

Then you have to implement a special queue that handles response timeout.
Actually we are trying to provide a solution for your problem:

Please stay tuned, or you could borrow the idea of the patches.
