Method Detail

getFormatName

public String getFormatName()

Description copied from interface: DiscoveryFormatProvider

Returns the name of the format implemented by this provider.

Specified by:

getFormatName in interface DiscoveryFormatProvider

Returns:

the name of the format implemented by this provider

encodeMulticastRequest

public void encodeMulticastRequest(MulticastRequest request,
                                   DatagramBufferFactory bufs,
                                   InvocationConstraints constraints)
                            throws IOException

Description copied from interface: MulticastRequestEncoder

Encodes the given multicast request data into byte buffers obtained from the provided datagram buffer factory, in a manner that satisfies the specified absolute constraints. null constraints are considered equivalent to empty constraints. Multicast request data that is too large to fit in a single datagram buffer is split across multiple buffers, with the constraints applied to each; this method is responsible for determining if and when to split the data based on the available space in the obtained buffers.

Specified by:

encodeMulticastRequest in interface MulticastRequestEncoder

Parameters:

request - the request data to encode

bufs - the factory for producing buffers in which to write encoded data

constraints - the constraints to apply when encoding the data, or null

Throws:

IOException - if an error occurs in encoding the data to send

UnsupportedConstraintException - if unable to satisfy the specified constraints

decodeMulticastAnnouncement

public MulticastAnnouncement decodeMulticastAnnouncement(ByteBuffer buf,
                                                         InvocationConstraints constraints)
                                                  throws IOException

Description copied from interface: MulticastAnnouncementDecoder

Decodes the multicast announcement data contained in the given buffer in a manner that satisfies the specified absolute constraints, returning a MulticastAnnouncement instance that contains the decoded data. null constraints are considered equivalent to empty constraints. All the specified constraints are checked before this method returns.

Specified by:

decodeMulticastAnnouncement in interface MulticastAnnouncementDecoder

Parameters:

buf - a buffer containing the packet data to decode. The multicast announcement data must begin at position zero of buf.

constraints - the constraints to apply when decoding the data, or null

Returns:

the decoded multicast announcement data

Throws:

IOException - if an error occurs in interpreting the data

UnsupportedConstraintException - if unable to satisfy the specified constraints

checkUnicastDiscoveryConstraints

public void checkUnicastDiscoveryConstraints(InvocationConstraints constraints)
                                      throws UnsupportedConstraintException

Description copied from interface: UnicastDiscoveryClient

Checks and returns normally if this client is capable of fulfilling the given absolute constraints. null constraints are considered equivalent to empty constraints.

Specified by:

checkUnicastDiscoveryConstraints in interface UnicastDiscoveryClient

Parameters:

constraints - the constraints to check, or null

Throws:

UnsupportedConstraintException - if unable to satisfy the specified constraints

doUnicastDiscovery

public UnicastResponse doUnicastDiscovery(Socket socket,
                                          InvocationConstraints constraints,
                                          ClassLoader defaultLoader,
                                          ClassLoader verifierLoader,
                                          Collection context,
                                          ByteBuffer sent,
                                          ByteBuffer received)
                                   throws IOException,
                                          ClassNotFoundException

Description copied from interface: UnicastDiscoveryClient

Performs the client side of unicast discovery, obtaining the returned response data over the provided socket using the given default and codebase verifier class loaders and collection of object stream context objects in a manner that satisfies the specified absolute constraints. Byte buffers containing the data sent and received so far over the given socket (for the unicast discovery protocol 2 handshake) are provided for use by formats which integrity protect or otherwise incorporate the handshake data. null constraints are considered equivalent to empty constraints.

Specified by:

doUnicastDiscovery in interface UnicastDiscoveryClient

Parameters:

socket - the socket on which to perform unicast discovery

constraints - the constraints to apply to unicast discovery, or null

defaultLoader - the class loader value (possibly null) to be passed as the defaultLoader argument to RMIClassLoader methods when unmarshalling the registrar proxy

verifierLoader - the class loader value (possibly null) to pass to Security.verifyCodebaseIntegrity, if codebase integrity verification is used when unmarshalling the registrar proxy

context - the collection of context information objects (possibly null) to use when unmarshalling the registrar proxy

sent - a buffer containing the data already sent

received - a buffer containing the data already received

Returns:

the received unicast response data

Throws:

IOException - if an error occurs in interpreting received data or in formatting data to send

UnsupportedConstraintException - if unable to satisfy the specified constraints

ClassNotFoundException - if the class of the discovered registrar cannot be resolved
