- start two peers alice, bob
- make alice requests contact with bob
- they send messages
- they shutdown
- verify (and fix) no threads leaked
- verify messages
- add inbound connection handler to chatChannelHandler
- add Open and AcceptAllContactHandler to application
After the RequestOpenChannel changes, it's now possible to specify the
name and message of an outbound request as variables of the channel handler,
instead implementing an interface method to return them.
Also added the SendResponse method, which is necessary to respond to an
inbound request that was in the Pending state.
RequestOpenChannel is the primary API to open a new outbound channel. It
was written to take a connection.Handler and use OnOpenChannelRequest
to get a channels.Handler to represent the new channel, which is the
same path that inbound channels will take.
Going through the global OnOpenChannelRequest method makes this much
less flexible and prevents passing parameters to the new channel handler
during creation. This also requires users of the API to know/find the
connection handler, or worse, to boilerplate one into existence for their
channel creation.
Instead, I think this function should take a channels.Handler directly,
so that the caller gets full control over the handler for their new
channel.
As part of that change, I've also moved the authentication logic in
AutoConnectionHandler to be contained entirely within
{In,Out}boundConnectionHandler.
ChatChannel didn't return the message ID for sent messages, which made
using the returned ACKs impossible. The SendMessage method now returns
the uin32 messageID.
Also, SendMessage didn't support the TimeDelta field for messages, which
is used for queued or resent messages. This is now available as
SendMessageWithTime.
And finally, the ChatMessageAck callback didn't indicate if mesasges
were accepted or not, which is part of the protocol. That was added as a
field, which is unfortunately a breaking API change, but I've made
enough of those lately to not feel guilty about it.
There are few situations where a pointer to an interface is useful in
Go, and this isn't one. Interfaces can hold types by value or pointer,
so long as that type fulfills the interface.
