Constructor Summary

XdrTcpDecodingStream(java.net.Socket streamingSocket, int bufferSize)

Method Summary

void	beginDecoding() Initiates decoding of the next XDR record.

java.net.InetAddress	getSenderAddress() Returns the Internet address of the sender of the current XDR data.
int	getSenderPort() Returns the port number of the sender of the current XDR data.
int	xdrDecodeInt() Decodes (aka "deserializes") a "XDR int" value received from a XDR stream.
void	xdrDecodeOpaque(byte[] opaque, int offset, int length) Decodes (aka "deserializes") a XDR opaque value, which is represented by a vector of byte values, and starts at offset with a length of length.
byte[]	xdrDecodeOpaque(int length) Decodes (aka "deserializes") an opaque value, which is nothing more than a series of octets (or 8 bits wide bytes).

Constructor Detail

XdrTcpDecodingStream

public XdrTcpDecodingStream(java.net.Socket streamingSocket,
                            int bufferSize)
                     throws java.io.IOException

Construct a new XdrTcpDecodingStream object and associate it with the given streamingSocket for TCP/IP-based communication.

Parameters:

streamingSocket - Socket from which XDR data is received.

bufferSize - Size of packet buffer for storing received XDR data.

Throws:

java.io.IOException

Method Detail

getSenderAddress

public java.net.InetAddress getSenderAddress()

Returns the Internet address of the sender of the current XDR data. This method should only be called after beginDecoding(), otherwise it might return stale information.

Specified by:

getSenderAddress in class XdrDecodingStream

Returns:

InetAddress of the sender of the current XDR data.

getSenderPort

public int getSenderPort()

Returns the port number of the sender of the current XDR data. This method should only be called after beginDecoding(), otherwise it might return stale information.

Specified by:

getSenderPort in class XdrDecodingStream

Returns:

Port number of the sender of the current XDR data.

beginDecoding

public void beginDecoding()
                   throws OncRpcException,
                          java.io.IOException

Initiates decoding of the next XDR record. For TCP-based XDR decoding streams this reads in the next chunk of data from the network socket (a chunk of data is not necessary the same as a fragment, just enough to fill the internal buffer or receive the remaining part of a fragment).

Read in the next bunch of bytes. This can be either a complete fragment, or if the fragments sent by the communication partner are too large for our buffer, only parts of fragments. In every case, this method ensures that there will be more data available in the buffer (or else an exception thrown).

Specified by:

beginDecoding in class XdrDecodingStream

Throws:

OncRpcException - if an ONC/RPC error occurs.

java.io.IOException - if an I/O error occurs.

endDecoding

public void endDecoding()
                 throws OncRpcException,
                        java.io.IOException

End decoding of the current XDR record. The general contract of endDecoding is that calling it is an indication that the current record is no more interesting to the caller and any allocated data for this record can be freed.

This method overrides XdrDecodingStream.endDecoding(). It reads in and throws away fragments until it reaches the last fragment.

Overrides:

endDecoding in class XdrDecodingStream

Throws:

OncRpcException - if an ONC/RPC error occurs.

java.io.IOException - if an I/O error occurs.

close

public void close()
           throws OncRpcException,
                  java.io.IOException

Closes this decoding XDR stream and releases any system resources associated with this stream. A closed XDR stream cannot perform decoding operations and cannot be reopened.

This implementation frees the allocated buffer but does not close the associated datagram socket. It only throws away the reference to this socket.

Overrides:

close in class XdrDecodingStream

Throws:

OncRpcException - if an ONC/RPC error occurs.

java.io.IOException - if an I/O error occurs.

xdrDecodeInt

public int xdrDecodeInt()
                 throws OncRpcException,
                        java.io.IOException

Decodes (aka "deserializes") a "XDR int" value received from a XDR stream. A XDR int is 32 bits wide -- the same width Java's "int" data type has.

Specified by:

xdrDecodeInt in class XdrDecodingStream

Returns:

The decoded int value.

Throws:

OncRpcException - if an ONC/RPC error occurs.

java.io.IOException - if an I/O error occurs.

xdrDecodeOpaque

public byte[] xdrDecodeOpaque(int length)
                       throws OncRpcException,
                              java.io.IOException

Decodes (aka "deserializes") an opaque value, which is nothing more than a series of octets (or 8 bits wide bytes). Because the length of the opaque value is given, we don't need to retrieve it from the XDR stream. This is different from xdrDecodeOpaque(byte[], int, int) where first the length of the opaque value is retrieved from the XDR stream.

Specified by:

xdrDecodeOpaque in class XdrDecodingStream

Parameters:

length - Length of opaque data to decode.

Returns:

Opaque data as a byte vector.

Throws:

OncRpcException - if an ONC/RPC error occurs.

java.io.IOException - if an I/O error occurs.

xdrDecodeOpaque

public void xdrDecodeOpaque(byte[] opaque,
                            int offset,
                            int length)
                     throws OncRpcException,
                            java.io.IOException

Decodes (aka "deserializes") a XDR opaque value, which is represented by a vector of byte values, and starts at offset with a length of length. Only the opaque value is decoded, so the caller has to know how long the opaque value will be. The decoded data is always padded to be a multiple of four (because that's what the sender does).

Specified by:

xdrDecodeOpaque in class XdrDecodingStream

Parameters:

opaque - Byte vector which will receive the decoded opaque value.

offset - Start offset in the byte vector.

length - the number of bytes to decode.

Throws:

OncRpcException - if an ONC/RPC error occurs.

java.io.IOException - if an I/O error occurs.
