Reply handling

In some instances, a protocol thread is configured to await replies. The next protocol message that is delivered from the protocol driver should be an inbound reply protocol message.

The engine looks for:

  • Metadata in the outbound message sent into the outbound TPS module.
  • Configuration information from the NetConfig file.

Only one message at a time is moved to the forwarded thread’s outbound queue. This is even if the forwarding thread’s outbound queue contains multiple messages.
