Re: [jetty-users] Sequential pushing with HTTP/2

Jeroen,

the push mechanism creates new streams in the multiplexed connection for each of the pushed resources.  This is explicitly so that they can overtake each other and there is no sequential requirement.

In HTTP2, it is the priority mechanism that might be able to set some kind of sequential relationship between resources, but that comes from the client and is only advisory.  Plus Jetty currently does not implement priority and probably will not due to flaws with it from a server throughput point of view.

There is actually no way I can think of in HTTP/2 to maintain strong ordering between resources - pushed or requested.
It would be good to know your use-case for this.

cheers

Hello all,

I have been using a customized version of Jetty 9.3.0 to enable the pushing of content from server to client, using HTTP/2-14. I have done some preliminary experiments, and noticed that when pushing resources a, b and c from the resource handler:

    baseRequest.getHttpChannel().getHttpTransport().push(a);
    baseRequest.getHttpChannel().getHttpTransport().push(b);
    baseRequest.getHttpChannel().getHttpTransport().push(c);

It is possible that resource b is pushed before a, or resource c is pushed before a or b. How can I make sure that resources are pushed sequentially in the current HTTP/2 implementation?

Kind regards,

Jeroen van der Hooft
