This change rationalizes the 2 very similar abstractions that exist in Connections.Abstractions, IConnection and ConnectionContext. It also introduces an IConnectionFactory to SignalR that is used to create a new ConnectionContext for a HubConnection.
- HubConnection just completes both ends of the transport pipe instead of calling DisposeAsync.
- Implemented ConnectionContext on HttpConnection and added HttpConnectionFactory
- Updated tests
- These are the finishing touches before we disable batching on the
C# client and on the server. We're changing the IHubProtocol interface to
modify the input buffer with what was consumed. We're also changing it
to parse a single message at a time to be match what output writing does.
- Added TryParseResponseMessage and made it look like TryParseRequestMessage
- React to rename of EndPoint to ConnectionHandler
- Rename UseSockets to UseConnections
- Rename MapEndPoint to MapConnectionHandler
- Rename HttpSocketOptions to HttpConnectionOptions
- Reworked the Client to be based on pipelines instead of Channels
- SendAsync no longer fails if the http request itself fails but the connection is closed as a result.
- Updated tests
- Base64Encoder needed to support multiple messages in the same span of data
SendAsync was using InvokeCoreAsync code to send messages. In case of exception InvokeCoreAsync is blocking and returns a task to the user so they can await for the remote call to complete. Any exception thrown is caught and used to fail the task returned to the user. SendAsync does not return a special task to the user so re-using InvokeCore resulted in swallowing exceptions. While SendAsync is fire and forget it actually should throw if the message could not be send and it was not happening.
While adding tests it turned out we did not test cases where Invoke/SendAsync/StreamAsync were invoked before starting the connection and this resulted in a NullReferenceException. I also fixed that.
Late parameter binding
Storing exception thrown during parameter binding and rethrowing when the method is about to throw. This allows completing invocations with a HubException and keeping the connection open.
We will also no longer close the connection if parameters for client side methods cannot be bound. We will log and continue.
Fixes: #818
(Also fixing #1005 because I was just touching this line)
* Turned Stream into StreamAsync
- Before we were fire and forgetting the invocation that initiated
the streaming, this changes that so that the caller now has to await
to get the channel.
