Class AsynchToSynchChannelAdapter

java.lang.Object
  org.activeio.adapter.AsynchToSynchChannelAdapter

All Implemented Interfaces:

AsynchChannelListener, Channel, Disposable, InputSynchChannel, OutputChannel, Service, SynchChannel

public final class AsynchToSynchChannelAdapter

extends java.lang.Object

implements SynchChannel, AsynchChannelListener

Adapts a AsynchChannel so that it provides an SynchChannel interface. This object buffers asynchronous messages from the AsynchChannel and buffers them in a Channel util the client receives them.

                                 EDU.oswego.cs.dl.util.concurrent.Channel upPacketChannel)

write

public void write(Packet packet)
           throws java.io.IOException

Description copied from interface: OutputChannel

Sends a packet down the channel towards the media.

Specified by:

write in interface OutputChannel

Parameters:

packet -

Throws:

java.io.IOException

See Also:

org.activeio.Channel#write(org.activeio.channel.Packet)

flush

public void flush()
           throws java.io.IOException

Description copied from interface: OutputChannel

Some channels may buffer data which may be sent down if flush() is called.

Specified by:

flush in interface OutputChannel

Throws:

java.io.IOException

See Also:

org.activeio.Channel#flush()

read

public Packet read(long timeout)
            throws java.io.IOException

Description copied from interface: InputSynchChannel

Used to synchonously receive a packet of information going 'up' the channel. This method blocks until a packet is received or the operation experiences timeout.

Specified by:

read in interface InputSynchChannel

Parameters:

timeout -

Returns:

the packet recived or null if the timeout occured.

Throws:

java.io.IOException

See Also:

InputSynchChannel.read(long)

dispose

public void dispose()

Description copied from interface: Disposable

This method should not throw any exceptions. Cleaning up a Disposable object should be easy of an end user therefore do not make him have to handle an Exception.

Specified by:

dispose in interface Disposable

See Also:

Disposable.dispose()

start

public void start()
           throws java.io.IOException

Description copied from interface: Service

Starts the channel. Once started, the channel is in the running state.

Specified by:

start in interface Service

Throws:

java.io.IOException

See Also:

Service.start()

stop

public void stop(long timeout)
          throws java.io.IOException

Description copied from interface: Service

Stops the channel. Once stopped, the channel is in the stopped state.

Specified by:

stop in interface Service

Parameters:

timeout - The amount of time the channel is allowed to take to gracefully stop. If the timeout is exceeded, the channel should do a forcefull stop.

Throws:

java.io.IOException

See Also:

Service.stop(long)

onPacket

public void onPacket(Packet packet)

Description copied from interface: AsynchChannelListener

A AsynchChannel will call this method to deliver an 'up' packet to a consumer.

Specified by:

onPacket in interface AsynchChannelListener

Parameters:

packet -

See Also:

org.activeio.AsynchChannelListener#onPacket(org.activeio.channel.Packet)

onPacketError

public void onPacketError(java.io.IOException error)

Description copied from interface: AsynchChannelListener

A AsynchChannel will call this method when a async failure occurs in the channel.

Specified by:

onPacketError in interface AsynchChannelListener

Parameters:

error - the exception that describes the failure.

See Also:

org.activeio.AsynchChannelListener#onPacketError(org.activeio.channel.ChannelException)

narrow

public java.lang.Object narrow(java.lang.Class target)

Description copied from interface: Channel

Since a Channel may be composed from a chain of other Channel obejcts, this method allows you to query the chain for the specified interface. The first Channel in the chain the implments the requested interface will be return an implementing object. If no Channel in the chain implements the requested class, then null is returned.

Specified by:

narrow in interface Channel

getAsynchChannel

public AsynchChannel getAsynchChannel()

toString

public java.lang.String toString()
