Re: [xSocket-develop] Questions Regarding Multiplexer Clients

Hi Carlo,

xSocket is a tcp-level framework. xSocket does not know anything about messages. You can use xSocket to send data to the peer and receive data. xSocket does not define a framing or anything else. This means you have to mark you messages on application level.

Subject: [xSocket-develop] Questions Regarding Multiplexer Clients

Hi,

I would like to ask if this is possible, I am sending a message to an
 external tcp/ip server.

I'm using one thread to send it and another thread is polling for the
reply messages,

Is there a possibility for me to be able to correlate the response
based on a return message coming from the tcp/ip

For example I send two messages

Thread 1 Sending --> A010101TRANSACTION
Thread 2 Sending --> B020202TRANSACTION-TWO

Receiver Thread Getting --> A010101REPLY-TRANSACTION
Receiver Thread Getting --> B020202REPLY-TRANSACTION-TWO

How can I match this thread based on A010101 --> assuming this is the
correlation id that i want to set. How can I make sure that Thread 1
 will be the one getting it and not thread 2?

I've seen a new pattern called Return Address? How can I implement it
with TCP/IP.

Does the other end have to be a multiplexer server as well?

Thanks
Carlo
