>From the spec, JSON-RPC 2.0 is "transport agnostic in that the concepts can be used within the same process, over sockets, over http, or in many various message passing environments." https://www.jsonrpc.org/specification#overview Thus JSON-RPC can be used bi-directionally when using UNIX domain sockets, TCP sockets, and other bidirectional transports (e.g websockets). If implemented as such using a bi-direction transport, the endpoints can be both a server and a client at the same time, i.e. both endpoints can issue requests and/or handle responses: https://www.jsonrpc.org/specification#conventions "The Client is defined as the origin of Request objects and the handler of Response objects. The Server is defined as the origin of Response objects and the handler of Request objects. One implementation of this specification could easily fill both of those roles, even at the same time, to other different clients or the same client. This specification does not address that layer of complexity." _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org https://lists.freepascal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
