Implementations

Mandatory Core Protocol Features

Drivers are assumed to implement all core features defined in the Protocol document. The core scope includes the following (and is not limited to) :

• Metadata and Payload frames
• All 4 interaction models : Fire-and-forget, request/response, requestStream, requestChannel
• Request-N frame : application level flow control
• Fragmentation/Reassembly : Drivers are assumed to fully encode/decode the expected user data type
• Keep-Alive frame : A responder receiving a keep-alive frame must reply a keep-alive frame
• Error Frame : in order to fully support connection lifecycle
• Handling the unexpected : If Resumption, Leasing or an extension is not supported, rejected error frames must be used
