Protocols
Reactors, event streams, and channels form the cornerstone of the reactor programming model. These basic primitives allow composing powerful communication abstractions. In this section, we go through some of the basic communication protocols that the Reactors framework implements in terms of its basic primitives. What these protocols have in common is that they are not artificial extensions of the basic model. Rather, they are composed from basic abstractions and other simpler protocols.
We start with one of the simplest protocols, namely the server-client protocol. First, we show how to implement a simple server-client protocol ourselves. After that, we show how to use the standard server-client implementation provided by the Reactors ...
