Method Detail

close

void close()
           throws IOException
Close any backing stream associated with the buffer

Throws:
IOException

fill

int fill(Buffer buffer)
         throws IOException
Fill the buffer from the current putIndex to it's capacity from whatever byte source is backing the buffer. The putIndex is increased if bytes filled. The buffer may chose to do a compact before filling.

Returns:
an int value indicating the number of bytes filled or -1 if EOF is reached.
Throws:
IOException

flush

int flush(Buffer buffer)
          throws IOException
Flush the buffer from the current getIndex to it's putIndex using whatever byte sink is backing the buffer. The getIndex is updated with the number of bytes flushed. Any mark set is cleared. If the entire contents of the buffer are flushed, then an implicit empty() is done.

Parameters:
buffer - The buffer to flush. This buffers getIndex is updated.
Returns:
the number of bytes written
Throws:
IOException

flush

int flush(Buffer header,
          Buffer buffer,
          Buffer trailer)
          throws IOException
Flush the buffer from the current getIndex to it's putIndex using whatever byte sink is backing the buffer. The getIndex is updated with the number of bytes flushed. Any mark set is cleared. If the entire contents of the buffer are flushed, then an implicit empty() is done. The passed header/trailer buffers are written before/after the contents of this buffer. This may be done either as gather writes, as a poke into this buffer or as several writes. The implementation is free to select the optimal mechanism.

Parameters:
header - A buffer to write before flushing this buffer. This buffers getIndex is updated.
buffer - The buffer to flush. This buffers getIndex is updated.
trailer - A buffer to write after flushing this buffer. This buffers getIndex is updated.
Returns:
the total number of bytes written.
Throws:
IOException

getLocalAddr

String getLocalAddr()
Returns:
The local IP address to which this EndPoint is bound, or null if this EndPoint does not represent a network connection.

getLocalHost

String getLocalHost()
Returns:
The local host name to which this EndPoint is bound, or null if this EndPoint does not represent a network connection.

getLocalPort

int getLocalPort()
Returns:
The local port number on which this EndPoint is listening, or 0 if this EndPoint does not represent a network connection.

getRemoteAddr

String getRemoteAddr()
Returns:
The remote IP address to which this EndPoint is connected, or null if this EndPoint does not represent a network connection.

getRemoteHost

String getRemoteHost()
Returns:
The host name of the remote machine to which this EndPoint is connected, or null if this EndPoint does not represent a network connection.

getRemotePort

int getRemotePort()
Returns:
The remote port number to which this EndPoint is connected, or 0 if this EndPoint does not represent a network connection.

isBlocking

boolean isBlocking()

isBufferred

boolean isBufferred()

blockReadable

boolean blockReadable(long millisecs)
                      throws IOException
Throws:
IOException

blockWritable

boolean blockWritable(long millisecs)
                      throws IOException
Throws:
IOException

isOpen

boolean isOpen()

getTransport

Object getTransport()
Returns:
The underlying transport object (socket, channel, etc.)

isBufferingInput

boolean isBufferingInput()
Returns:
True if the endpoint has some buffered input data

isBufferingOutput

boolean isBufferingOutput()
Returns:
True if the endpoint has some buffered output data

flush

void flush()
           throws IOException
Flush any buffered output. May fail to write all data if endpoint is non-blocking

Throws:
IOException
