| gRPC Support |
| === |
| |
| This directory contains the interface and implementation of the API to use |
| an external network stack from gRPC. The implementation is essentially a thin |
| wrapper around net::BidirectionalStream. The API specifies that the caller to |
| gRPC will pass in an opaque binary blob (stream_engine) that can be used to |
| created binary streams. In Chromium, this binary blob is a |
| net::URLRequestContextGetter, which is used by grpc_support::BidirectionalStream |
| to drive a net::BidirectionalStream. |
| |
| Currently Cronet (//components/cronet/ios) is the only consumer of this API, |
| but eventually code inside of Chromium should be able to use gRPC by providing |
| a net::URLRequestContextGetter. |
