Description

The pn_connection_engine API needs to be improved to address the following concerns:

• duplication of types (pn_cbuf_t duplicates pn_bytes_t)
• user-controlled allocation of IO buffers to allow future elimination of internal proton buffering for 0-copy IO or malloc-restricted environments.
