InitiatingFlow marks a flow as initiating, meaning that it starts a ResponderFlow when creating a session with another network entity.
Any flows that participate in flow sessions must declare a protocol name, using protocol and protocol. The platform will use the protocol name to establish what ResponderFlow to invoke on the responder side when the initiator side creates a session.
For example, to set up an initiator-responder pair, declare the following:
Flows may also optionally declare a range of protocol versions they support. By default, flows support protocol version 1 only. When initiating a flow, the platform will look for the highest supported protocol version as declared on the initiating side and start that flow on the responder side.= "myprotocol") class MyFlowInitiator : Flow { ... } = "myprotocol") class MyFlowResponder : ResponderFlow { ... }
