package io.grpc.stub;

/**
 * Receives notifications from an observable stream of messages.
 *
 * <p>It is used by both the client stubs and service implementations for sending or receiving
 * stream messages. It is used for all {@link io.grpc.MethodDescriptor.MethodType}, including
 * {@code UNARY} calls.  For outgoing messages, a {@code StreamObserver} is provided by the GRPC
 * library to the application. For incoming messages, the application implements the
 * {@code StreamObserver} and passes it to the GRPC library for receiving.
 *
 * <p>Implementations are not required to be thread-safe (but should be
 * <a href="http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/library/j-jtp09263/">thread-compatible</a>).
 * Separate {@code StreamObserver}s do
 * not need to be synchronized together; incoming and outgoing directions are independent.
 * Since individual {@code StreamObserver}s are not thread-safe, if multiple threads will be
 * writing to a {@code StreamObserver} concurrently, the application must synchronize calls.
 *
 * <p>This API is asynchronous, so methods may return before the operation completes. The API
 * provides no guarantees for how quickly an operation will complete, so utilizing flow control via
 * {@link ClientCallStreamObserver} and {@link ServerCallStreamObserver} to avoid excessive
 * buffering is recommended for streaming RPCs. gRPC's implementation of {@code onError()} on
 * client-side causes the RPC to be cancelled and discards all messages, so completes quickly.
 *
 * <p>gRPC guarantees it does not block on I/O in its implementation, but applications are allowed
 * to perform blocking operations in their implementations. However, doing so will delay other
 * callbacks because the methods cannot be called concurrently.
