RdContext

abstract class RdContext<T : Any>(val key: String, val heavy: Boolean, val serializer: IMarshaller<T>)

Describes a context and provides access to value associated with this context. The associated value is thread-local and synchronized between send/advise pairs on IWire. The associated value will be the same in handler method in IWire.advise as it was in IWire.send. Instances of this class with the same key will share the associated value. Best practice is to declare contexts in toplevel entities in protocol model using Toplevel.threadLocalContext. Manual declaration is also possible.

Parameters

key

textual name of this context. This is used to match this with protocol counterparts

heavy

Whether this context is heavy. A heavy context maintains a value set and interns values. A light context sends values as-is and does not maintain a value set.

serializer

Serializer to be used with this context.
