Method Detail

create

static NetAltingConnectionClient create(NetConnectionLocation loc,
                                        NetworkMessageFilter.FilterTx filterTX,

                                 throws JCSPNetworkException

Throws:

JCSPNetworkException

isOpen

public boolean isOpen()
               throws java.lang.IllegalStateException,
                      JCSPNetworkException

Description copied from interface: ConnectionClient

Returns whether the server has kept its end of the Connection open. This should only be called after a call to reply() and before any other Connection method is called.

Specified by:

isOpen in interface ConnectionClient

Returns:

true iff the server has kept the connection open.

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalStateException

JCSPNetworkException

reply

public java.lang.Object reply()
                       throws java.lang.IllegalStateException,
                              JCSPNetworkException

Description copied from interface: ConnectionClient

Receives some data back from the server after request(Object) has been called.

After calling this method, isOpen() may be called to establish whether the server dropped the connection after replying.

Implementations may make this operation ALTable.

Specified by:

reply in interface ConnectionClient

Returns:

the Object sent from the server.

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalStateException - if the method is called when it is not meant to be.

JCSPNetworkException

request

public void request(java.lang.Object obj)
             throws java.lang.IllegalStateException,
                    JCSPNetworkException

Description copied from interface: ConnectionClient

This method is used to send data to a ConnectionServer in a client/server conversation. If a connection has not yet been established, then this method will open the connection as necessary.

Once this method has returned, the client may do some computation but must then guarantee to call reply(). This will obtain a server's response to the request. In between calling this method and reply(), doing pure computation is safe. Performing synchronization with other process is potentially hazardous.

Once a server replies, if the connection has been kept open, then this method should be called again to make a further request.

Programs using Connections need to adopt a protocol so that the server knows when a conversation with a client has finished and will then drop the connection.

Specified by:

request in interface ConnectionClient

Parameters:

obj - the Object to send to the server.

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalStateException - if the method is called when it is not meant to be.

JCSPNetworkException

destroy

public void destroy()

Description copied from interface: Networked

Destroys the Networked construct

Specified by:

destroy in interface Networked

getLocation

public NetLocation getLocation()

Description copied from interface: Networked

Gets the networked location of the Networked construct

Specified by:

getLocation in interface Networked

Returns:

The location of the construct

getLocalLocation

NetConnectionLocation getLocalLocation()

getConnectionData

final ConnectionData getConnectionData()
