Detailed Description

The TransportFactory is used to to create ServerTransports or client Transports.

To bind a server Transport you need to first create a ServerTransportContext or to connect to an existing server you need to create a ClientTransportContext.

Member Function Documentation

static AsynchronousServerTransport com.softwareag.um.io.TransportFactory.bind	(	ServerTransportContext	context,
		AcceptHandler	ahandler,
		DataHandler	dHandler,
		CloseHandler	cHandler
	)		throws IOException

static

Bind a new ServerTransport as defined by the context.

This method takes several callback objects which will be notified asynchronously when certain events occur.

Parameters

context	The ServerTransportContext which defines what type of ServerTransport to create
ahandler	The AcceptHandler that will be notified when new client Transports connect
dHandler	The DataHandler that will be notified when data is available to be read from an AsynchronousTranport
cHandler	The CloseHandler that will be notified when a client Transport is closed

Returns: AsynchronousServerTransport that will asynchronously accept client connections

Exceptions

IOException if the ServerTransport cannot be bound using the configuration in the context

static SynchronousServerTransport com.softwareag.um.io.TransportFactory.bind ( ServerTransportContext context ) throws IOException

static

Create a new SynchronousServerTransport using the configuration stored in the ServerTransportContext.

This ServerTransport can be used to accept connections.

Parameters

context the configuration to use to create the ServerTransport

Returns: the SynchronousServerTransport that can be used to accept new client connections

Exceptions

IOException if the ServerTransport as defined in the context cannot be bound to

static AsynchronousTransport com.softwareag.um.io.TransportFactory.connect	(	ClientTransportContext	context,
		ConnectHandler	connectHandler,
		DataHandler	dataHandler,
		CloseHandler	closeHandler
	)		throws IOException

static

Connect to a ServerTransport using the configuration defined in the ClientTransportContext.

Parameters

context	contains the configuration required to connect to the ServerTransport
connectHandler	notified when the AsynchronousTransport is connected
dataHandler	notified when data is available to be read from the AsynchronousTransport
closeHandler	notified when the AsynchronousTransport is closed

Returns: AsynchronousTransport that can be written to and will fire callbacks when data is available to be read

Exceptions

IOException if there is a problem connecting to the ServerTransport

static SynchronousTransport com.softwareag.um.io.TransportFactory.connect ( ClientTransportContext context ) throws IOException

static

Connect a new SynchronousTransport as defined in the context to a server.

Parameters

context defines the configuration fo the SynchronousTransport

Returns: SynchronousTransport that can be used to read/write data to the server

Exceptions

IOException if the SynchronousTransport as defined in the context cannot connect to the server

static boolean com.softwareag.um.io.TransportFactory.TransportSupported ( String transportName )

static

This function tests to see if the requested transport is supported on the current hardware.

Transports like RDMA require specialised Infiniband cards and drivers to be present.

Parameters

transportName to test

Returns: true or false, depending if the transport is supported
