  • Enum Constant Details

    • UNARY

      public static final MethodDescriptor.MethodType UNARY
      One request message followed by one response message.
    • 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.

    • valueOf

      public static MethodDescriptor.MethodType valueOf(String name)
