Service server trait for handling requests.

Threading

&mut self on try_recv_request and send_reply — the executor owns the server while a request is being handled. Handler bodies run synchronously on the executor thread; long handlers should dispatch work to a worker queue and reply later via the recorded sequence_number.

Calling pattern

1. Executor calls try_recv_request(buf).
2. If Some(req) returned, decode, run handler, encode reply.
3. send_reply(req.sequence_number, &reply_buf).

sequence_number is the canonical request → reply correlation token; backends derive it from the wire-level metadata (zenoh query id, DDS sample identity).

Required Associated Types

Error type for service operations

Required Methods

fn try_recv_request<'a>( &mut self, buf: &'a mut [u8], ) -> Result<Option<ServiceRequest<'a>>, Self::Error>

Try to receive a service request into buf (non-blocking).

On success returns a ServiceRequest that borrows from buf. The borrow is released when the returned struct is dropped — typically before send_reply is called, since send_reply takes &mut self.

fn send_reply( &mut self, sequence_number: i64, data: &[u8], ) -> Result<(), Self::Error>

Send a reply for the given sequence number. Non-blocking from the application’s perspective; the backend may queue the reply for transport-level transmission.

Provided Methods

fn has_request(&self) -> bool

Check if a request is available without consuming it.

Non-destructive. Default returns true (always assume one may be available); backends should override with a real check.

fn register_waker(&self, _waker: &Waker)

Phase 122.3.c.6.e — register a Waker for event-driven service servers. Mirrors the matching method on SubscriberTrait / ServiceClientTrait. Backends that surface incoming-request notifications wake waker when has_request() flips true. Default: no-op (backends without wake support ignore — caller falls back to polling).

fn handle_request<S>( &mut self, req_buf: &mut [u8], reply_buf: &mut [u8], handler: impl FnOnce(&<S as RosService>::Request) -> <S as RosService>::Reply, ) -> Result<bool, Self::Error>

where S: RosService, Self::Error: From<TransportError>,

Handle a service request with typed messages

fn handle_request_boxed<S>( &mut self, req_buf: &mut [u8], reply_buf: &mut [u8], handler: impl FnOnce(&<S as RosService>::Request) -> Box<<S as RosService>::Reply>, ) -> Result<bool, Self::Error>

where S: RosService, Self::Error: From<TransportError>,

Handle a service request where the handler returns Box<S::Reply>

Identical to handle_request but the handler returns a heap-allocated reply. This is needed for services with large response types (e.g., parameter services where Vec<ParameterValue, 64> is ~1MB+) that would overflow the stack.

Dyn Compatibility

This trait is not dyn compatible.

In older versions of Rust, dyn compatibility was called "object safety", so this trait is not object safe.
