Thrift源码分析（二）-- 协议和编解码

协议和编解码是一个网络应用程序的核心问题之一，客户端和服务器通过约定的协议来传输消息(数据)，通过特定的格式来编解码字节流，并转化成业务消息，提供给上层框架调用。

Thrift的协议比较简单，它把协议和编解码整合在了一起。抽象类TProtocol定义了协议和编解码的顶层接口。个人感觉采用抽象类而不是接口的方式来定义顶层接口并不好，TProtocol关联了一个TTransport传输对象，而不是提供一个类似getTransport()的接口，导致抽象类的扩展性比接口差。

TProtocol主要做了两个事情:

1. 关联TTransport对象

2.定义一系列读写消息的编解码接口，包括两类，一类是复杂数据结构比如readMessageBegin, readMessageEnd,  writeMessageBegin, writMessageEnd.还有一类是基本数据结构，比如readI32, writeI32, readString, writeString
