Class ProcessorServer

java.lang.Object
org.simpleframework.transport.ProcessorServer
All Implemented Interfaces:
Server
public class ProcessorServer extends Object implements Server
The ProcessorServer is used to convert pipelines to transports. This simply acts as an adapter to a processor which converts a connected pipeline to a Transport which can be used to read and write data. Conversion of the pipeline is performed only once per connection.

  • Constructor Details

    • ProcessorServer

      public ProcessorServer(Processor processor) throws IOException
      Constructor for the ProcessorServer object. The transport processor is used to process plain connections and wrap those connections in a Transport that can be used to send and receive data to and from.
      Parameters:
      processor - this is used to process transports
      Throws:
      IOException

    • ProcessorServer

      public ProcessorServer(Processor processor, int count) throws IOException
      Constructor for the ProcessorServer object. The transport processor is used to process plain connections and wrap those connections in a Transport that can be used to send and receive data to and from.
      Parameters:
      processor - this is used to process transports
      count - this is the number of threads this will use
      Throws:
      IOException

    • ProcessorServer

      public ProcessorServer(Processor processor, int count, int limit) throws IOException
      Constructor for the ProcessorServer object. The transport processor is used to process plain connections and wrap those connections in a Transport that can be used to send and receive data to and from.
      Parameters:
      processor - this is used to process transports
      count - this is the number of threads this will use
      limit - this is the threshold for asynchronous buffers
      Throws:
      IOException

  • Method Details

    • process

      public void process(Socket socket) throws IOException
      Used to process the Pipeline which is a full duplex communication link that may contain several HTTP requests. This will be used to read the requests from the Pipeline and to pass these requests to a Container for processing.

      Typical usage of this method is to accept multiple pipeline objects, each representing a unique HTTP channel to the client, and process requests from those pipelines concurrently.

      Specified by:
      process in interface Server
      Parameters:
      socket - this is the connected HTTP pipeline to process
      Throws:
      IOException

    • stop

      public void stop() throws IOException
      This method is used to stop the Processor such that it will accept no more pipelines. Stopping the processor ensures that all resources occupied will be released. This is required so that all threads are stopped, and all memory is released.

      Typically this method is called once all connections to the server have been stopped. As a final act of shutting down the entire server all threads must be stopped, this allows collection of unused memory and the closing of file and socket resources.

      This is implemented to shut down the server asynchronously. It will start a process to perform the shutdown. Asynchronous shutdown allows a server resource executed via a HTTP request can stop the server without any danger of killing itself or even worse causing a deadlock.

      Specified by:
      stop in interface Server
      Throws:
      IOException
