How do I Finish a gRPC message-stream from the client?

[jarle]

When I open an outgoing message-stream from a client, I get a std::shared_ptr<QGrpcClientStream> value.

I can send messages with stream->sendMessage(msg), and I can call stream->read<>() to get the the latest message in the stream onFinished handler. However, the handler is never called because I don't know how to finish the stream.

In the standard async/callback gRPC interface, the client can call stream->StartWriteLast() or stream->startWritesDone() to tell the server it's done.

Is there a way in QT's gRPC interfaces to tell the server that a client is done? The closest it've found is stream->cancel() - but that terminates the stream, and the client don't receive the servers single reply-message for the request.

I have not tried bidirectional streams yet using QT's interface, but looking at the QGrpcBidirStream class, it has only a sendMessage() method and no obvious way to finish the stream from the client.

Hi,

The module being in TP, I would suggest to open a ticket on the bug report system as it seems to be something that is missing.

@SGaist I added a bug report for the issue.
