ASF GitHub Bot commented on FLINK-4384: --------------------------------------- GitHub user StephanEwen opened a pull request: https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/2360 [FLINK-4384] [rpc] Add "scheduleRunAsync()" to the RpcEndpoint NOTE: This builds on top of #2357 - only the second commit belongs actually to this pull request is relevant. Add a `scheduleRunAsync()` method to the `RpcEndpoint`. It behaves like `runAsync()` but delays the call by a given number of milliseconds. The delay does not happen by a thread sleep, but by scheduling the message that triggers the Runnable it into the future of the message dispatcher. This also adds tests for the `runAsync()`, `scheduleRunAsync()`, and `callAsync()` that validate that all these calls actually run in the same thread (the RPC endpoint's main thread).
