Inline Mode for Administrators
Programs that receive time-sensitive messages can use inline mode to favor low latency over high throughput. Inline mode reduces inbound message latency by consolidating transport I/O and message callback processing into one thread.
For a complete description of inline mode, its usage, requirements and restrictions, see "Inline Mode" in TIBCO FTL Development.
When specifying inline mode, programmers and administrators must coordinate to avoid illegal state exceptions. In particular, inline mode for event queues imposes restrictions on the transports you can use to implement endpoints (see Transport Restrictions with Inline Mode, and TIBCO FTL Application Coordination Form).
When specifying inline mode, programmers and administrators must also coordinate to avoid blocking send operations that could delay callbacks from returning promptly (see Blocking Send and Inline Mode).
