Field Documentation

   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.

   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.

   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_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_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().
