Class DecodingStateMachine

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    DecodingState

    public abstract class DecodingStateMachine
    extends java.lang.Object
    implements DecodingState
    Abstract base class for decoder state machines. Calls init() to get the start DecodingState of the state machine. Calls destroy() when the state machine has reached its end state or when the session is closed.

    NOTE: The ProtocolDecoderOutput used by this class when calling DecodingState.decode(IoBuffer, ProtocolDecoderOutput) buffers decoded messages in a List. Once the state machine has reached its end state this class will call finishDecode(List, ProtocolDecoderOutput). The implementation will have to take care of writing the decoded messages to the real ProtocolDecoderOutput used by the configured ProtocolCodecFilter.

      • init

        protected abstract DecodingState init()
                                       throws java.lang.Exception
        Invoked to initialize this state machine.
        Returns:
        the start DecodingState.
        Throws:
        java.lang.Exception - if the initialization failed
      • finishDecode

        protected abstract DecodingState finishDecode​(java.util.List<java.lang.Object> childProducts,
                                                      ProtocolDecoderOutput out)
                                               throws java.lang.Exception
        Called once the state machine has reached its end.
        Parameters:
        childProducts - contains the messages generated by each of the DecodingStates which were exposed to the received data during the life time of this state machine.
        out - the real ProtocolDecoderOutput used by the ProtocolCodecFilter.
        Returns:
        the next state if the state machine should resume.
        Throws:
        java.lang.Exception - if the decoding end failed
      • destroy

        protected abstract void destroy()
                                 throws java.lang.Exception
        Invoked to destroy this state machine once the end state has been reached or the session has been closed.
        Throws:
        java.lang.Exception - if the destruction failed
      • decode

        public DecodingState decode​(IoBuffer in,
                                    ProtocolDecoderOutput out)
                             throws java.lang.Exception
        Invoked when data is available for this state.
        Specified by:
        decode in interface DecodingState
        Parameters:
        in - the data to be decoded.
        out - used to write decoded objects.
        Returns:
        the next state if a state transition was triggered (use this for loop transitions) or null if the state machine has reached its end.
        Throws:
        java.lang.Exception - if the read data violated protocol specification.
      • finishDecode

        public DecodingState finishDecode​(ProtocolDecoderOutput out)
                                   throws java.lang.Exception
        Invoked when the associated IoSession is closed. This method is useful when you deal with protocols which don't specify the length of a message (e.g. HTTP responses without content-length header). Implement this method to process the remaining data that DecodingState.decode(IoBuffer, ProtocolDecoderOutput) method didn't process completely.
        Specified by:
        finishDecode in interface DecodingState
        Parameters:
        out - used to write decoded objects.
        Returns:
        the next state if a state transition was triggered (use this for loop transitions) or null if the state machine has reached its end.
        Throws:
        java.lang.Exception - if the read data violated protocol specification.
