[][src]Function multistream_select::dialer_select_proto

pub fn dialer_select_proto<R, I>(
    inner: R,
    protocols: I,
    version: Version
) -> DialerSelectFuture<R, I::IntoIter> where
    R: AsyncRead + AsyncWrite,
    I: IntoIterator,
    I::Item: AsRef<[u8]>, 

Returns a Future that negotiates a protocol on the given I/O stream for a peer acting as the dialer (or initiator).

This function is given an I/O stream and a list of protocols and returns a computation that performs the protocol negotiation with the remote. The returned Future resolves with the name of the negotiated protocol and a Negotiated I/O stream.

The chosen message flow for protocol negotiation depends on the numbers of supported protocols given. That is, this function delegates to [dialer_select_proto_serial] or [dialer_select_proto_parallel] based on the number of protocols given. The number of protocols is determined through the size_hint of the given iterator and thus an inaccurate size estimate may result in a suboptimal choice.

Within the scope of this library, a dialer always commits to a specific multistream-select protocol Version, whereas a listener always supports all versions supported by this library. Frictionless multistream-select protocol upgrades may thus proceed by deployments with updated listeners, eventually followed by deployments of dialers choosing the newer protocol.
