Interface for class responsible for doing the actual sending of requests. Strictly non-persistent.

boolean	sendIsBlocking()

Method Detail

send

boolean send(NodeClientCore node,
             RequestScheduler sched,
             ClientContext context,
             ChosenBlock request)

ONLY called by RequestStarter. Start the actual request using the NodeClientCore provided, and the key and key number earlier got from chooseKey(). Either use the callbacks on the ChosenBlock, which will remove the key from KeysFetchingLocally, or do it directly (in obscure cases such as OfferedKeysList).

Parameters:

sched - The scheduler this request has just been grabbed from.

request - The ChosenBlock containing the key, the SendableRequestItem, and the methods to call to indicate success/failure.

Returns:

True if a request was sent, false otherwise (in which case the request will be removed if it hasn't already been).

sendIsBlocking

boolean sendIsBlocking()
