void com.pcbsys.nirvana.client.p2p.nEventService.deregisterListener ( final nEventServiceListener  listener) throws IOException

Removes the registered nEventServiceListener from this service.

When all listeners are removed then the read() method can then be called

Parameters
listenerAn Instance of an nEventServiceListener that is to be removed
Exceptions
IOExceptionif Service is closed or listener is null
nOutOfBandService com.pcbsys.nirvana.client.p2p.nEventService.getOutOfBandService ( )

This function returns an nOutOfBandService.

An out of band (OOB) service can be used to pass flow/control information between the remote P2P service

Returns
A new nOutOfBandService object
nConsumeEvent com.pcbsys.nirvana.client.p2p.nEventService.read ( ) throws IOException

Waits for a new nConsumeEvent to be received from the remote service.

Returns
nConsumeEvent An event written by the remote service
Exceptions
IOExceptionif the lower streams have an error, See the message or more information
nConsumeEvent com.pcbsys.nirvana.client.p2p.nEventService.read ( final long  timeout) throws IOException

Waits for a new nConsumeEvent to be received from the remote service or the timeout to be reached.

Parameters
timeoutThe number of milliseconds to wait for an event to be received
Returns
nConsumeEvent An event written by the remote service
Exceptions
IOExceptionif the lower streams have an error, See the message or more information
void com.pcbsys.nirvana.client.p2p.nEventService.registerListener ( final nEventServiceListener  listener) throws IOException

Registers an nEventServiceListener with this class.

This nEventServiceListener will be called whenever there is a new event received

Once this is called then this will preclude the use of the read() method

Parameters
listenerAn Instance of an nEventServiceListener that is to be used
Exceptions
IOExceptionif Service is closed or listener is null
void com.pcbsys.nirvana.client.p2p.nEventService.write ( final nConsumeEvent  evt) throws IOException

Writes an nConsumeEvent to the remote P2P service.

Parameters
evtAn nConsumeEvent to send to the remote P2P service
