      Modifier and Type Method Description
      boolean clientSendsOneMessage()
      Returns true for UNARY and SERVER_STREAMING, which do not permit the client to stream.
      boolean serverSendsOneMessage()
      Returns true for UNARY and CLIENT_STREAMING, which do not permit the server to stream.
      static MethodDescriptor.MethodType valueOf​(java.lang.String name)
      Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name.
      static MethodDescriptor.MethodType[] values()
      Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared.

      • CLIENT_STREAMING

        public static final MethodDescriptor.MethodType CLIENT_STREAMING
        Zero or more request messages with one response message.

      • SERVER_STREAMING

        public static final MethodDescriptor.MethodType SERVER_STREAMING
        One request message followed by zero or more response messages.

      • BIDI_STREAMING

        public static final MethodDescriptor.MethodType BIDI_STREAMING
        Zero or more request and response messages arbitrarily interleaved in time.

      • UNKNOWN

        public static final MethodDescriptor.MethodType UNKNOWN
        Cardinality and temporal relationships are not known. Implementations should not make buffering assumptions and should largely treat the same as BIDI_STREAMING.

    • Method Detail

      • values

        public static MethodDescriptor.MethodType[] values()
        Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows: 
        for (MethodDescriptor.MethodType c : MethodDescriptor.MethodType.values())
    System.out.println(c);
        Returns:
        an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

      • valueOf

        public static MethodDescriptor.MethodType valueOf​(java.lang.String name)
        Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)
        Parameters:
        name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.
        Returns:
        the enum constant with the specified name
        Throws:
        java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name
        java.lang.NullPointerException - if the argument is null

      • clientSendsOneMessage

        public final boolean clientSendsOneMessage()

      • serverSendsOneMessage

        public final boolean serverSendsOneMessage()
        Returns true for UNARY and CLIENT_STREAMING, which do not permit the server to stream.
        Since:
