Class GrpcEnvironment

public class GrpcEnvironment : object

Encapsulates initialization and shutdown of gRPC library.

Inheritance

Object > GrpcEnvironment

Namespace

Grpc.Core

Assembly

Grpc.Core.dll

Properties

Logger

public static ILogger Logger { get; }

Gets application-wide logger used by gRPC.

Property Value
TypeDescription
ILogger

The logger.

Methods

KillServersAsync()

public static Task KillServersAsync()

Requests immediate shutdown of all servers created by the current process.

Returns
TypeDescription
Task

SetBatchContextPoolParams(Int32, Int32)

public static void SetBatchContextPoolParams(int sharedCapacity, int threadLocalCapacity)

Sets the parameters for a pool that caches batch context instances. Reusing batch context instances instead of creating a new one for every C core operation helps reducing the GC pressure. Can be only invoked before the GrpcEnviroment is started and cannot be changed afterwards. This is an advanced setting and you should only use it if you know what you are doing. Most users should rely on the default value provided by gRPC library. Note: this method is part of an experimental API that can change or be removed without any prior notice.

Parameters
TypeNameDescription
Int32sharedCapacity
Int32threadLocalCapacity

SetCompletionQueueCount(Int32)

public static void SetCompletionQueueCount(int completionQueueCount)

Sets the number of completion queues in the gRPC thread pool that polls for internal RPC events. Can be only invoked before the GrpcEnviroment is started and cannot be changed afterwards. Setting the number of completions queues is an advanced setting and you should only use it if you know what you are doing. Most users should rely on the default value provided by gRPC library. Note: this method is part of an experimental API that can change or be removed without any prior notice.

Parameter
TypeNameDescription
Int32completionQueueCount

SetHandlerInlining(Boolean)

public static void SetHandlerInlining(bool inlineHandlers)

By default, gRPC's internal event handlers get offloaded to .NET default thread pool thread (inlineHandlers=false). Setting inlineHandlers to true will allow scheduling the event handlers directly to GrpcThreadPool internal threads. That can lead to significant performance gains in some situations, but requires user to never block in async code (incorrectly written code can easily lead to deadlocks). Inlining handlers is an advanced setting and you should only use it if you know what you are doing. Most users should rely on the default value provided by gRPC library. Note: this method is part of an experimental API that can change or be removed without any prior notice. Note: inlineHandlers=true was the default in gRPC C# v1.4.x and earlier.

Parameter
TypeNameDescription
BooleaninlineHandlers

SetLogger(ILogger)

public static void SetLogger(ILogger customLogger)

Sets the application-wide logger that should be used by gRPC.

Parameter
TypeNameDescription
ILoggercustomLogger

SetRequestCallContextPoolParams(Int32, Int32)

public static void SetRequestCallContextPoolParams(int sharedCapacity, int threadLocalCapacity)

Sets the parameters for a pool that caches request call context instances. Reusing request call context instances instead of creating a new one for every requested call in C core helps reducing the GC pressure. Can be only invoked before the GrpcEnviroment is started and cannot be changed afterwards. This is an advanced setting and you should only use it if you know what you are doing. Most users should rely on the default value provided by gRPC library. Note: this method is part of an experimental API that can change or be removed without any prior notice.

Parameters
TypeNameDescription
Int32sharedCapacity
Int32threadLocalCapacity

SetThreadPoolSize(Int32)

public static void SetThreadPoolSize(int threadCount)

Sets the number of threads in the gRPC thread pool that polls for internal RPC events. Can be only invoked before the GrpcEnviroment is started and cannot be changed afterwards. Setting thread pool size is an advanced setting and you should only use it if you know what you are doing. Most users should rely on the default value provided by gRPC library. Note: this method is part of an experimental API that can change or be removed without any prior notice.

Parameter
TypeNameDescription
Int32threadCount

ShutdownChannelsAsync()

public static Task ShutdownChannelsAsync()

Requests shutdown of all channels created by the current process.

Returns
TypeDescription
Task

Events

ShuttingDown

public static event EventHandler ShuttingDown

Occurs when GrpcEnvironment is about the start the shutdown logic. If GrpcEnvironment is later initialized and shutdown, the event will be fired again (unless unregistered first).

Event Type
TypeDescription
EventHandler
