SessionInputBuffer

Known Indirect Subclasses

Class Overview

Session input buffer for non-blocking connections. This interface facilitates intermediate buffering of input data streamed from a source channel and reading buffered data to a destination, usually ByteBuffer or WritableByteChannel. This interface also provides methods for reading lines of text.

Summary

Public Methods
abstract int fill(ReadableByteChannel src)
Makes an attempt to fill the buffer with data from the given ReadableByteChannel.
abstract boolean hasData()
Determines if the buffer contains data.
abstract int length()
Returns the length of this buffer.
abstract int read(ByteBuffer dst)
Reads a sequence of bytes from this buffer into the destination buffer.
abstract int read(WritableByteChannel dst)
Reads a sequence of bytes from this buffer into the destination channel.
abstract int read()
Reads one byte from the buffer.
abstract int read(WritableByteChannel dst, int maxLen)
Reads a sequence of bytes from this buffer into the destination channel, up to the given maximum limit.
abstract int read(ByteBuffer dst, int maxLen)
Reads a sequence of bytes from this buffer into the destination buffer, up to the given maximum limit.
abstract String readLine(boolean endOfStream)
Attempts to transfer a complete line of characters up to a line delimiter from this buffer to a newly created string.
abstract boolean readLine(CharArrayBuffer dst, boolean endOfStream)
Attempts to transfer a complete line of characters up to a line delimiter from this buffer to the destination buffer.

Public Methods

public abstract int fill (ReadableByteChannel src)

Makes an attempt to fill the buffer with data from the given ReadableByteChannel.

Parameters
src the source channel
Returns
  • The number of bytes read, possibly zero, or -1 if the channel has reached end-of-stream.
Throws
IOException in case of an I/O error.

public abstract boolean hasData ()

Determines if the buffer contains data.

Returns
  • true if there is data in the buffer, false otherwise.

public abstract int length ()

Returns the length of this buffer.

Returns
  • buffer length.

public abstract int read (ByteBuffer dst)

Reads a sequence of bytes from this buffer into the destination buffer. The exact number of bytes transferred depends on availability of data in this buffer and capacity of the destination buffer.

Parameters
dst the destination buffer.
Returns
  • The number of bytes read, possibly zero.

public abstract int read (WritableByteChannel dst)

Reads a sequence of bytes from this buffer into the destination channel. The exact number of bytes transferred depends on availability of data in this buffer.

Parameters
dst the destination channel.
Returns
  • The number of bytes read, possibly zero.
Throws
IOException in case of an I/O error.

public abstract int read ()

Reads one byte from the buffer. If the buffer is empty this method can throw a runtime exception. The exact type of runtime exception thrown by this method depends on implementation.

Returns
  • one byte

public abstract int read (WritableByteChannel dst, int maxLen)

Reads a sequence of bytes from this buffer into the destination channel, up to the given maximum limit. The exact number of bytes transferred depends on availability of data in this buffer, but cannot be more than maxLen value.

Parameters
dst the destination channel.
maxLen the maximum number of bytes to be read.
Returns
  • The number of bytes read, possibly zero.
Throws
IOException in case of an I/O error.

public abstract int read (ByteBuffer dst, int maxLen)

Reads a sequence of bytes from this buffer into the destination buffer, up to the given maximum limit. The exact number of bytes transferred depends on availability of data in this buffer and capacity of the destination buffer, but cannot be more than maxLen value.

Parameters
dst the destination buffer.
maxLen the maximum number of bytes to be read.
Returns
  • The number of bytes read, possibly zero.

public abstract String readLine (boolean endOfStream)

Attempts to transfer a complete line of characters up to a line delimiter from this buffer to a newly created string. If a complete line is available in the buffer, the sequence of chars is transferred to a newly created string. The line delimiter itself is discarded. If a complete line is not available in the buffer, this method returns null. If endOfStream parameter is set to true this method assumes the end of stream has been reached and the content currently stored in the buffer should be treated as a complete line.

The choice of a char encoding and line delimiter sequence is up to the specific implementations of this interface.

Returns
  • a string representing a complete line, if available. null otherwise.
Throws
CharacterCodingException in case a character encoding or decoding error occurs.

public abstract boolean readLine (CharArrayBuffer dst, boolean endOfStream)

Attempts to transfer a complete line of characters up to a line delimiter from this buffer to the destination buffer. If a complete line is available in the buffer, the sequence of chars is transferred to the destination buffer the method returns true. The line delimiter itself is discarded. If a complete line is not available in the buffer, this method returns false without transferring anything to the destination buffer. If endOfStream parameter is set to true this method assumes the end of stream has been reached and the content currently stored in the buffer should be treated as a complete line.

The choice of a char encoding and line delimiter sequence is up to the specific implementations of this interface.

Parameters
dst the destination buffer.
Returns
  • true if a sequence of chars representing a complete line has been transferred to the destination buffer, false otherwise.
Throws
CharacterCodingException in case a character encoding or decoding error occurs.
