vs-streamjsonrpc

• Throw OCE from canceled requests even when remote disconnects before sending cancellation acknowledgment #265

• Use safe technique for length prefixing with IBufferWriter<T> #247
• Fix handling of nullable return types #237
• Add net472-specific target in NuGet package (avoids facade assembly loads on that framework)

Fixes propagation of JSON parse settings (#227)

This release contains API breaking changes from the 1.x versions.

Highlights

• Support for the new .NET Pipelines API (PipeReader and PipeWriter) for higher performance
• Decoupled from Newtonsoft.Json, allowing alternative message formatters to be plugged in such as high performance MessagePack
• Message handling is now an extensibility point, enabling custom message routing, filtering/modification, and alternate transports such as HTTP
• Add LengthHeaderMessageHandler as a high performance alternative to the default HTTP-like headers message handler.
• Logging support via TraceSource
• Default to blocking of RPC invocations of non-public methods on your target objects
• Better server-side support for named arguments (the JSON params object in the spec). Now server methods can define each parameter separately rather than being required to take a JToken
• Offer more control of error messages returned to the client
• Throw ConnectionLostException when connection drops before a response is received to an outbound request

Highlights

New in 1.5 over the 1.4 version (exhaustive list):

• Add non-generic InvokeWithParameterObject method
• Add option to automatically cancel server methods when the connection is dropped (Roslyn partner team request)
• Lots of perf and GC pressure improvements
• SourceLink-enabled portable PDB included in the package for easy step-into debugging from your application code
• Enable blocking of RPC invocations of non-public methods on your target objects

Highlights

• Performance improvements
• Throw OperationCanceledException instead of RemoteInvocationException when server method is canceled #71
• Add JsonRpc.Completion property to more easily await the connection's completion and handle exceptions that led to unexpected disconnection. #77
• Fix support for combined CancellationToken and parameter objects #83
• Add support for WebSocket #81
• Allow server the option to crash on exception thrown #74
• Allow JsonRpc modification while listening #90
• Support using SynchronizationContext to invoke server methods #92
• Add support for RPC method name transforms when adding a local target objects #100
• Add JsonRpc.Attach client proxy generating method #108
• .NET Core 2.1 compatibility fix: Fix handling of Task-derived types returned from async methods #117
• Fix handling of plain-Task returned objects from server methods #131
• Accept error responses where error.data is a primitive #127
• Fix cancellation race that can result in connection termination #168

Potentially breaking

• Add support for target object events #105. If your RPC target objects already define events, this could be potentially breaking. With this new feature, a way to opt-out is provided to avoid the break.
