Class DirectReactor

java.lang.Object
org.simpleframework.transport.reactor.DirectReactor
All Implemented Interfaces:
Reactor

public class DirectReactor extends Object implements Reactor
The DirectReactor object is used to execute the ready operations of within a single synchronous thread. This is used when the I/O operations to be performed do not require much time to execute and so will not block the execution thread.

    Method
    Description
    void
    This method is used to execute the provided operation without the need to specifically check for I/O events.
    void
    process(Operation task, int require)
    This method is used to execute the provided operation when there is an I/O event that task is interested in.
    void
    This is used to stop the reactor so that further requests to execute operations does nothing.

    • DirectReactor

      public DirectReactor() throws IOException
      Constructor for the DirectReactor object. This is used to create a reactor that does not require thread pooling to execute the ready operations. All I/O operations are run in the selection thread and should complete quickly.
      Throws:
      IOException
    • DirectReactor

      public DirectReactor(boolean cancel) throws IOException
      Constructor for the DirectReactor object. This is used to create a reactor that does not require thread pooling to execute the ready operations. All I/O operations are run in the selection thread and should complete quickly.
      Parameters:
      cancel - determines the selection key should be canceled
      Throws:
      IOException

    • process

      public void process(Operation task) throws IOException
      This method is used to execute the provided operation without the need to specifically check for I/O events. This is used if the operation knows that the SelectableChannel is ready, or if the I/O operation can be performed without knowing if the channel is ready. Typically this is an efficient means to perform a poll rather than a select on the channel.
      Specified by:
      process in interface Reactor
      Parameters:
      task - this is the task to execute immediately
      Throws:
      IOException
    • process

      public void process(Operation task, int require) throws IOException
      This method is used to execute the provided operation when there is an I/O event that task is interested in. This will used the operations SelectableChannel object to determine the events that are ready on the channel. If this reactor is interested in any of the ready events then the task is executed.
      Specified by:
      process in interface Reactor
      Parameters:
      task - this is the task to execute on interested events
      require - this is the bit-mask value for interested events
      Throws:
      IOException
    • stop

      public void stop() throws IOException
      This is used to stop the reactor so that further requests to execute operations does nothing. This will clean up all of the reactors resources and unregister any operations that are currently awaiting execution. This should be used to ensure any threads used by the reactor graceful stop.
      Specified by:
      stop in interface Reactor
      Throws:
      IOException
