Interface Endpoint

All Known Implementing Classes:
NioEndpoint, UdpEndpoint
public interface Endpoint
An abstract endpoint in a Kernel that can be used for sending/receiving messages within the kernel space.

  • Method Summary

    Modifier and Type
    Method
    Description
    void
    close()
    Closes this endpoint without flushing any of its currently enqueued outbound data.
    void
    close(boolean flushData)
    Closes this endpoint, optionally flushing any queued data before closing.
    String
    getAddress()
    Returns the transport specific remote address of this endpoint as a string.
    long
    getId()
    Returns an ID that is unique for this endpoint within its Kernel instance.
    Kernel
    getKernel()
    Returns the kernel to which this endpoint belongs.
    boolean
    isConnected()
    Returns true if this endpoint is currently connected.
    void
    send(ByteBuffer data)
    Sends data to the other end of the connection represented by this endpoint.

  • Method Details

    • getId

      long getId()
      Returns an ID that is unique for this endpoint within its Kernel instance.

    • getAddress

      String getAddress()
      Returns the transport specific remote address of this endpoint as a string. This may or may not be unique per endpoint depending on the type of transport.

    • getKernel

      Kernel getKernel()
      Returns the kernel to which this endpoint belongs.

    • isConnected

      boolean isConnected()
      Returns true if this endpoint is currently connected.

    • send

      void send(ByteBuffer data)
      Sends data to the other end of the connection represented by this endpoint.

    • close

      void close()
      Closes this endpoint without flushing any of its currently enqueued outbound data.

    • close

      void close(boolean flushData)
      Closes this endpoint, optionally flushing any queued data before closing. As soon as this method is called, new send() calls will fail with an exception... even while close() is still flushing the earlier queued messages.
