Server Endpoint 'qlen' Limit
|
Q:
I'm writing an Open Transport server product and will be implementing
handoff endpoints. What is the maximum 'qlen ' value that limits the number of
handoff endpoints that can be implemented?
A:
There is a maximum 'qlen ' value for each protocol, but maximum values which
are true today for Open Transport may change in the future, so I recommend that
you set the 'qlen ' value to a desired value. If the desired value is greater
than the number of handoff endpoints that the underlying protocol can support,
the protocol can specify its own maximum 'qlen ' value for the server endpoint.
After making the OTBind call, take a look at the 'qlen ' field of the TBind
structure, retAddr , to see whether the protocol imposed a limit on the 'qlen '
value.
