Class SynchornizedSyncChannel

java.lang.Object
  org.activeio.FilterSyncChannel
      org.activeio.filter.SynchornizedSyncChannel

All Implemented Interfaces:

Channel, Disposable, InputSyncChannel, OutputChannel, Service, SyncChannel

public class SynchornizedSyncChannel
extends FilterSyncChannel

Used to synchronize concurrent access to a SynchChannel. Uses two different Sync objects for write and read operations. All other operations such as stop(long) and stop(long) just do a normal java synchronization against the SynchornizedSynchChannel object instance.

Method Summary

void	dispose() This method should not throw any exceptions.
void	flush() Some channels may buffer data which may be sent down if flush() is called.
Sync	getReadLock()
Sync	getWriteLock()
Object	narrow(Class target) 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.
Packet	read(long timeout) Used to synchronously receive a packet of information going 'up' the channel.
void	start() Starts the channel.
void	stop(long timeout) Stops the channel.
void	write(Packet packet) Sends a packet down the channel towards the media.

Method Detail

read

public Packet read(long timeout)
            throws IOException

Description copied from interface: InputSyncChannel

Used to synchronously 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 InputSyncChannel

Overrides:

read in class FilterSyncChannel

Returns:

the packet received or null if the timeout occurred.

Throws:

IOException

See Also:

InputSyncChannel.read(long)

write

public void write(Packet packet)
           throws IOException

Description copied from interface: OutputChannel

Sends a packet down the channel towards the media.

Specified by:

write in interface OutputChannel

Overrides:

write in class FilterSyncChannel

Throws:

IOException

See Also:

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

flush

public void flush()
           throws 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

Overrides:

flush in class FilterSyncChannel

Throws:

IOException

See Also:

org.activeio.Channel#flush()

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

Overrides:

dispose in class FilterSyncChannel

See Also:

Disposable.dispose()

narrow

public Object narrow(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

Overrides:

narrow in class FilterSyncChannel

start

public void start()
           throws IOException

Description copied from interface: Service

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

Specified by:

start in interface Service

Overrides:

start in class FilterSyncChannel

Throws:

IOException

See Also:

Service.start()

stop

public void stop(long timeout)
          throws IOException

Description copied from interface: Service

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

Specified by:

stop in interface Service

Overrides:

stop in class FilterSyncChannel

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:

IOException

See Also:

Service.stop(long)
