@ohos.rpc (RPC)

The RPC module implements communication between processes, including inter-process communication (IPC) on a single device and remote procedure call (RPC) between processes on difference devices. IPC is implemented based on the Binder driver, and RPC is based on the DSoftBus driver.

NOTE

• The initial APIs of this module are supported since API version 7. Newly added APIs will be marked with a superscript to indicate their earliest API version.

• This module supports return of error codes since API version 9.

MessageParcel^(deprecated)

NOTE
This API is deprecated since API version 9. Use MessageSequence instead.

Provides APIs for reading and writing data in specific format. During RPC, the sender can use the write() method provided by MessageParcel to write data in specific format to a MessageParcel object. The receiver can use the read() method provided by MessageParcel to read data in specific format from a MessageParcel object. The data formats include basic data types and arrays, IPC objects, interface tokens, and custom sequenceable objects.

  }
}
let remoteObject = new TestAbility("testObject").asObject();

Example

// If the FA model is used, import featureAbility from @kit.AbilityKit.
// import { featureAbility } from '@kit.AbilityKit';
import { Want, common } from '@kit.AbilityKit';
import { hilog } from '@kit.PerformanceAnalysisKit';

let proxy: rpc.IRemoteObject | undefined;
let connect: common.ConnectOptions = {
  onConnect: (elementName, remoteProxy) => {
    hilog.info(0x0000, 'testTag', 'RpcClient: js onConnect called');
    proxy = remoteProxy;
  },
  onDisconnect: (elementName) => {
    hilog.info(0x0000, 'testTag', 'RpcClient: onDisconnect');
  },
  onFailed: () => {
    hilog.info(0x0000, 'testTag', 'RpcClient: onFailed');

};
let want: Want  = {
  bundleName: "com.ohos.server",

// FA.connectAbility(want,connect);

// Save the connection ID, which will be used for the subsequent service disconnection.

// Save the connection ID, which will be used for the subsequent service disconnection.
let connectionId = context.connectServiceExtensionAbility(want, connect);

The proxy object in the onConnect callback can be assigned a value only after the ability is connected asynchronously. Then, asObject() of the proxy object is called to obtain the proxy or remote object.

  constructor(remote: rpc.IRemoteObject) {
    this.remote = remote;
  }

For details about the error codes, see RPC Error Codes.

ID	Error Message
401	Parameter error. Possible causes: 1.The number of parameters is incorrect; 2.The parameter type does not match; 3.Failed to obtain the passed object instance.

Example

// If the FA model is used, import featureAbility from @kit.AbilityKit.
// import { featureAbility } from '@kit.AbilityKit';
import { Want, common } from '@kit.AbilityKit';
import { hilog } from '@kit.PerformanceAnalysisKit';

  },
  onDisconnect: (elementName) => {

  },
  onFailed: () => {

  }
};
let want: Want = {

sendMessageRequest⁹⁺

sendMessageRequest(code: number, data: MessageSequence, reply: MessageSequence, options: MessageOption): Promise<RequestResult>

Sends a MessageSequence message to the remote process in synchronous or asynchronous mode. If asynchronous mode is set in options, a promise will be fulfilled immediately and the reply message is empty. The specific reply needs to be obtained from the callback on the service side. If synchronous mode is set in options, a promise will be fulfilled when the response to sendMessageRequest is returned, and the reply message contains the returned information.

onRemoteMessageRequest⁹⁺

onRemoteMessageRequest(code: number, data: MessageSequence, reply: MessageSequence, options: MessageOption): boolean | Promise<boolean>

NOTE

• You are advised to overload onRemoteMessageRequest preferentially, which implements synchronous and asynchronous message processing.
• If both onRemoteRequest() and onRemoteMessageRequest() are overloaded, only the onRemoteMessageRequest() takes effect.

Called to return a response to sendMessageRequest(). The server processes the request synchronously or asynchronously and returns the result in this API.

System capability: SystemCapability.Communication.IPC.Core

Parameters

Name	Type	Mandatory	Description
code	number	Yes	Service request code sent by the remote end.
data	MessageSequence	Yes	MessageSequence object that holds the parameters called by the client.
reply	MessageSequence	Yes	MessageSequence object to which the result is written.
options	MessageOption	Yes	Whether the operation is synchronous or asynchronous.

Return value

Type	Description
boolean	Returns a Boolean value if the request is processed synchronously in onRemoteMessageRequest. The value true means the operation is successful; the value false means the opposite.
Promise<boolean>	Returns a promise object if the request is processed asynchronously in onRemoteMessageRequest.

Example: Overload onRemoteMessageRequest to process requests synchronously.
