Methods

CreateCallInvoker()

Create a new CallInvoker for the channel.

Declaration
public abstract CallInvoker CreateCallInvoker()

Declaration
public Task ShutdownAsync()
Returns
Type Description
System.Threading.Tasks.Task
Remarks

Guidance for implementors: This method doesn't wait for all calls on this channel to finish (nor does it have to explicitly cancel all outstanding calls). It is user's responsibility to make sure all the calls on this channel have finished (successfully or with an error) before shutting down the channel to ensure channel shutdown won't impact the outcome of those remote calls.

ShutdownAsyncCore()

Provides implementation of a non-virtual public member.

Declaration
protected virtual Task ShutdownAsyncCore()
Returns
Type Description
System.Threading.Tasks.Task
