Field Documentation

   globus_gass_transfer_proto_create_listener_t
       globus_gass_transfer_proto_descriptor_t::new_listener
       New listener.

       The function pointed to by this pointer is used by GASS to create a new listener handle.
       The listener handle has been initialized with the parameters passed to one of the
       functions in the Client-Initiated Operations section of the GASS Transfer API.

       The protocol module should begin processing this request by sending appropriate messages
       to the file server. Once the request is authorized, denied, or referred, the protocol
       module calls globus_gass_transfer_proto_request_ready(),
       globus_gass_transfer_proto_request_denied(), or
       globus_gass_transfer_proto_request_referred().

   globus_gass_transfer_proto_new_attr_t
       globus_gass_transfer_proto_descriptor_t::new_listenerattr
       New listener attributes.

       The function pointed to by this pointer is used by GASS to forward requests to create a
       listener attribute for this protocol's url_scheme to the protocol module. The function
       returns a listener attribute which inherits from one of the GASS Transfer request
       attributes.

           globus_gass_transfer_proto_new_attr_t

   globus_gass_transfer_proto_new_request_t globus_gass_transfer_proto_descriptor_t::new_request
       New request.

       The function pointed to by this pointer is used by GASS to initiate a new file transfer
       request by a protocol module. The request handle has been initialized with the parameters
       passed to one of the functions in the Client-Initiated Operations section of the GASS
       Transfer API.

       The protocol module should begin processing this request by sending appropriate messages
       to the file server. Once the request is authorized, denied, or referred, the protocol
       module calls globus_gass_transfer_proto_request_ready(),
       globus_gass_transfer_proto_request_denied(), or
       globus_gass_transfer_proto_request_referred().

           globus_gass_transfer_proto_new_request_t

   globus_gass_transfer_proto_new_attr_t globus_gass_transfer_proto_descriptor_t::new_requestattr
       New request attributes.

       The function pointed to by this pointer is used by GASS to forward requests to create a
       request attribute for this protocol's url_scheme to the protocol module. The function
       returns a request attribute which inherits from one of the GASS Transfer request
       attributes.

   char* globus_gass_transfer_proto_descriptor_t::url_scheme
       URL Scheme.

       The URL scheme which this protocol module supports. The scheme is the first part of a URL,
       which names the protocol which is used to access the resource named by the URL, for
       example 'http' or 'ftp'.

       The GASS Transfer library allows only one protocol module to be registered to handle a
       particular url_scheme. However, a protocol module may implement only the client or only
       the server part of the protocol. If a protocol has several variations with different
       scheme names (for example http and https), each scheme must be registered with GASS in
       order to be used.
