The trace flags for an AMQP transport control what sort of information is logged by an AMQP transport. The following bits can be set:

A network channel supporting an AMQP connection.

A pn_transport_t encapsulates the transport related state of all AMQP endpoint objects associated with a physical network connection at a given point in time.

Examples:
broker.c, and direct.c.

Function Documentation

pn_transport_t* pn_transport ( void   ) 

Factory for creating a transport.

A transport is used by a connection to interface with the network. There can only be one connection associated with a transport.

Initially a transport is configured to be a client transport. Use pn_transport_set_server() to configure the transport as a server transport.

A client transport initiates outgoing connections.

A client transport must be configured with the protocol layers to use and cannot configure itself automatically.

A server transport accepts incoming connections. It can automatically configure itself to include the various protocol layers depending on the incoming protocol headers.

Returns:
pointer to new transport
Examples:
broker.c.
void pn_transport_set_server ( pn_transport_t transport  ) 

Configure a transport as a server.

Parameters:
[in] transport a transport object
Examples:
broker.c.
void pn_transport_free ( pn_transport_t transport  ) 

Free a transport object.

When a transport is freed, it is automatically unbound from its associated connection.

Parameters:
[in] transport a transport object or NULL
const char* pn_transport_get_user ( pn_transport_t transport  ) 

Retrieve the authenticated user.

This is usually used at the the server end to find the name of the authenticated user. On the client it will merely return whatever user was passed in to the pn_connection_set_user() API of the bound connection.

The returned value is only reliable after the PN_TRANSPORT_AUTHENTICATED event has been received.

Parameters:
[in] transport the transport
Returns:
If a the user is anonymous (either no SASL layer is negotiated or the SASL ANONYMOUS mechanism is used) then the user will be "anonymous" Otherwise a string containing the user is returned.
void pn_transport_require_auth ( pn_transport_t transport,
bool  required 
)

Set whether a non-authenticated transport connection is allowed.

There are several ways within the AMQP protocol suite to get unauthenticated connections:

  • Use no SASL layer (with either no TLS or TLS without client certificates)
  • Use a SASL layer but the ANONYMOUS mechanism

The default if this option is not set is to allow unauthenticated connections.

Parameters:
[in] transport the transport
[in] required boolean is true when authenticated connections are required
Examples:
direct.c.
bool pn_transport_is_authenticated ( pn_transport_t transport  ) 

Tell whether the transport connection is authenticated.

Note that this property may not be stable until the PN_CONNECTION_REMOTE_OPEN event is received.

Parameters:
[in] transport the transport
Returns:
bool representing authentication
void pn_transport_require_encryption ( pn_transport_t transport,
bool  required 
)

Set whether a non encrypted transport connection is allowed.

There are several ways within the AMQP protocol suite to get encrypted connections:

  • Use TLS
  • Use a SASL with a mechanism that supports security layers

The default if this option is not set is to allow unencrypted connections.

Parameters:
[in] transport the transport
[in] required boolean is true when encrypted connections are required
Examples:
broker.c.
bool pn_transport_is_encrypted ( pn_transport_t transport  ) 

Tell whether the transport connection is encrypted.

Note that this property may not be stable until the PN_CONNECTION_REMOTE_OPEN event is received.

Parameters:
[in] transport the transport
Returns:
bool representing encryption
pn_condition_t* pn_transport_condition ( pn_transport_t transport  ) 

Get additional information about the condition of the transport.

When a PN_TRANSPORT_ERROR event occurs, this operation can be used to access the details of the error condition.

The pointer returned by this operation is valid until the transport object is freed.

Parameters:
[in] transport the transport object
Returns:
the transport's condition object
Examples:
broker.c, direct.c, receive.c, and send.c.
int pn_transport_bind ( pn_transport_t transport,
pn_connection_t connection 
)

**Deprecated** - Use pn_connection_driver_init().

Binds the transport to an AMQP connection.

Returns:
an error code, or 0 on success
int pn_transport_unbind ( pn_transport_t transport  ) 

**Deprecated** - Use pn_connection_driver_destroy().

Unbinds a transport from its AMQP connection.

Returns:
an error code, or 0 on success
void pn_transport_trace ( pn_transport_t transport,
pn_trace_t  trace 
)

[in] trace the trace flags
void pn_transport_set_tracer ( pn_transport_t transport,
pn_tracer_t  tracer 
)

[in] message the message to be logged
void pn_transport_vlogf ( pn_transport_t transport,
const char *  fmt,
va_list  ap

This can be useful in a debugging context as the log message will be prefixed with the transport's identifier.

Parameters:
[in] transport a transport object
[in] fmt the printf formatted message to be logged
[in] ap a vector containing the format arguments
void pn_transport_logf ( pn_transport_t transport,
const char *  fmt,

uint16_t pn_transport_get_channel_max ( pn_transport_t transport  ) 

Get the maximum allowed channel for a transport.

This will be the minimum of 1. limit imposed by this proton implementation 2. limit imposed by remote peer 3. limit imposed by this application, using pn_transport_set_channel_max()

Parameters:
[in] transport a transport object
Returns:
the maximum allowed channel
int pn_transport_set_channel_max ( pn_transport_t transport,
uint16_t  channel_max 
)

Set the maximum allowed channel number for a transport.

Note that this is the maximum channel number allowed, giving a valid channel number range of [0..channel_max]. Therefore the maximum number of simultaneously active channels will be channel_max plus 1. You can call this function more than once to raise and lower the limit your application imposes on max channels for this transport. However, smaller limits may be imposed by this library, or by the remote peer. After the OPEN frame has been sent to the remote peer, further calls to this function will have no effect.

Parameters:
[in] transport a transport object
[in] channel_max the maximum allowed channel
Returns:
PN_OK, or PN_STATE_ERR if it is too late to change channel_max

ssize_t pn_transport_capacity ( pn_transport_t transport  ) 

**Deprecated** - Use the Connection driver API.

Get the amount of free space for input following the transport's tail pointer.

If the engine is in an exceptional state such as encountering an error condition or reaching the end of stream state, a negative value will be returned indicating the condition. If an error is indicated, further details can be obtained from pn_transport_condition(). Calls to pn_transport_process() may alter the value of this pointer. See pn_transport_process for details.

Parameters:
[in] transport the transport
Returns:
the free space in the transport, PN_EOS or error code if < 0
char* pn_transport_tail ( pn_transport_t transport  ) 

**Deprecated** - Use the Connection driver API.

Get the transport's tail pointer.

The amount of free space following this pointer is reported by pn_transport_capacity. Calls to pn_transport_process may alter the value of this pointer. See pn_transport_process for details.

Parameters:
[in] transport the transport
Returns:
a pointer to the transport's input buffer, NULL if no capacity available.
ssize_t pn_transport_push ( pn_transport_t transport,
const char *  src,
size_t  size 
)

**Deprecated** - Use the Connection driver API.

Pushes the supplied bytes into the tail of the transport.

This is equivalent to copying size bytes after the tail pointer and then calling pn_transport_process with an argument of size. Only some of the bytes will be copied if there is insufficient capacity available. Use pn_transport_capacity to determine how much capacity the transport has.

Parameters:
[in] transport the transport
[in] src the start of the data to push into the transport
[in] size the amount of data to push into the transport
Returns:
the number of bytes pushed on success, or error code if < 0
int pn_transport_process ( pn_transport_t transport,
size_t  size 
)

**Deprecated** - Use the Connection driver API.

Process input data following the tail pointer.

Calling this function will cause the transport to consume size bytes of input occupying the free space following the tail pointer. Calls to this function may change the value of pn_transport_tail, as well as the amount of free space reported by pn_transport_capacity.

Parameters:
[in] transport the transport
[in] size the amount of data written to the transport's input buffer
Returns:
0 on success, or error code if < 0
int pn_transport_close_tail ( pn_transport_t transport  )

This tells the transport that no more input will be forthcoming.

Parameters:
[in] transport the transport
Returns:
0 on success, or error code if < 0
ssize_t pn_transport_pending ( pn_transport_t transport  ) 

**Deprecated** - Use the Connection driver API.

Get the number of pending output bytes following the transport's head pointer.

If the engine is in an exceptional state such as encountering an error condition or reaching the end of stream state, a negative value will be returned indicating the condition. If an error is indicated, further details can be obtained from pn_transport_condition(). Calls to pn_transport_pop() may alter the value of this pointer. See pn_transport_pop() for details.

Parameters:
[in] transport the transport
Returns:
the number of pending output bytes, or an error code
const char* pn_transport_head ( pn_transport_t transport  ) 

**Deprecated** - Use the Connection driver API.

Get the transport's head pointer.

This pointer references queued output data. The pn_transport_pending function reports how many bytes of output data follow this pointer. Calls to pn_transport_pop may alter this pointer and any data it references. See pn_transport_pop for details.

Parameters:
[in] transport the transport
Returns:
a pointer to the transport's output buffer, or NULL if no pending output.
ssize_t pn_transport_peek ( pn_transport_t transport,
char *  dst,
size_t  size 
)

**Deprecated** - Use the Connection driver API.

Copies size bytes from the head of the transport to the dst pointer.

It is an error to call this with a value of size that is greater than the value reported by pn_transport_pending.

Parameters:
[in] transport the transport

int64_t pn_transport_tick ( pn_transport_t transport,
int64_t  now 
)

Process any pending transport timer events.

This method should be called after all pending input has been processed by the transport and before generating output. It returns the deadline for the next pending timer event, if any are present.

Note that this function does nothing until the first data is read from or written to the transport.

Parameters:
[in] transport the transport to process.
[in] now A monotonically-increasing time value in milliseconds. Does not need to be wall-clock time or a valid AMQP timestamp, but must increase montonically.
Returns:
If non-zero, then the monotonic expiration time of the next pending timer event for the transport. The caller must invoke pn_transport_tick again at least once at or before this deadline occurs. If 0 there are no pending events.
