Streams with HttpInvoker

[ebegoli]

Is it possible to expose IO streams directly using the HttpInvoker as a remoting implementation?

Thank you,

No, HTTP invoker is only made for transferring serializable objects via RPC.

For streaming, I would recommend to create a plain HttpServlet or Spring Web MVC Controller, working at the HttpServletRequest / HttpServletResponse level: parse incoming request parameters and send a corresponding response stream as result.
