Support asynchronous server about starlight HOT 7 CLOSED

@FoghostCn
Maybe it's better to support both of the callback client and CompletableFuture client.

Another issue is that we should upgrade the JDK version to 1.8+.

I'd like to support this feature. Please let me know what your thought is.

@jovany-wang This is a very useful feature.

I'd like to use CompletableFuture to support async server with its client. If this sounds good to you, I will send a simple document on this design.

Please let me know your thoughts, thanks.

The simplest scenario can be considered as rpc proxy. async server may effectively improve throughput. CompletableFuture may be a good choice. Perhaps the async implementation in the client can also use CompleteFuture instead of callback

from starlight.

Expect asynchrony on the server side. If the server has network operation, asynchronous server can bring more performance improvement. Take a look at joyrpc.
