NAME

       Message Framing -

       The functions in this section frame a GRAM request, query, or reply
       message with HTTP headers compatible with the GRAM2 protocol parsers in
       GT2 GT3, and GT4.

   Functions
       int globus_gram_protocol_frame_request (const char *url, const
           globus_byte_t *msg, globus_size_t msgsize, globus_byte_t
           **framedmsg, globus_size_t *framedsize)
       int globus_gram_protocol_frame_reply (int code, const globus_byte_t
           *msg, globus_size_t msgsize, globus_byte_t **framedmsg,
           globus_size_t *framedsize)

Detailed Description

       The functions in this section frame a GRAM request, query, or reply
       message with HTTP headers compatible with the GRAM2 protocol parsers in
       GT2 GT3, and GT4.

       These functions should be used when an application wants to control the
       way that the GRAM Protocol messages are sent, while still using the
       standard message formatting and framing routines. An alternative set of
       functions in the Message I/O section of the manual combine message
       framing with callback-driven I/O.

Function Documentation

   int globus_gram_protocol_frame_request (const char * url, const
       globus_byte_t * msg, globus_size_t msgsize, globus_byte_t ** framedmsg,
       globus_size_t * framedsize)
       Create a HTTP-framed copy of a GRAM request. The
       globus_gram_protocol_frame_request() function adds HTTP 1.1 framing
       around the input message. The framed message includes HTTP headers
       relating the the destination URL and the length of the message content.
       The framed message is returned by modifying framedmsg to point to a
       newly allocated string. The integer pointed to by the framedsize
       parameter is set to the length of this message.

       Parameters:
           url The URL of the GRAM resource to contact. This is parsed and
           used to generate the HTTP POST operation destination and the Host
           HTTP header.
           msg A string containing the message content to be framed.
           msgsize The length of the string pointed to by msg
           framedmsg An output parameter which will be set to a copy of the
           msg string with an HTTP frame around it.
           framedsize An output parameter which will be set to the length of
           the framed message.

       Returns:
           Upon success, globus_gram_protocol_frame_request() will return
           GLOBUS_SUCCESS and the framedmsg and framedsize parameters will be
           modified to point to the new framed message string and its length
           respectively. When this occurs, the caller is responsible for
           freeing the string pointed to by framedmsg. If an error occurs, its
           value will returned and the framedmsg and framedsize parameters
           will be uninitialized.

       Return values:
           GLOBUS_SUCCESS Success
           GLOBUS_GRAM_PROTOCOL_ERROR_INVALID_JOB_CONTACT Invalid job contact

   int globus_gram_protocol_frame_reply (int code, const globus_byte_t * msg,
       globus_size_t msgsize, globus_byte_t ** framedmsg, globus_size_t *
       framedsize)
       Create a HTTP-framed copy of a GRAM reply. The
       globus_gram_protocol_frame_reply() function adds HTTP 1.1 framing
       around the input message. The framed message includes HTTP headers
       relating the the status of the operation being replied to and the
       length of the message content. The framed message is returned by
       modifying framedmsg to point to a newly allocated string. The integer
       pointed to by the framedsize parameter is set to the length of this
       message.

       Parameters:
           code The HTTP response code to send along with this reply.
           msg A string containing the reply message content to be framed.
           msgsize The length of the string pointed to by msg.
           framedmsg An output parameter which will be set to a copy of the
           msg string with an HTTP reply frame around it.
           framedsize An output parameter which will be set to the length of
           the framed reply string pointed to by framedmsg.

       Returns:
           Upon success, globus_gram_protocol_frame_reply() will return
           GLOBUS_SUCCESS and the framedmsg and framedsize parameters will be
           modified to point to the new framed message string and its length
           respectively. When this occurs, the caller is responsible for
           freeing the string pointed to by framedmsg. If an error occurs, its
           value will returned and the framedmsg and framedsize parameters
           will be uninitialized.

       Return values:
           GLOBUS_SUCCESS Success
