Method Detail

listen

ListenerEndpoint listen(java.net.SocketAddress address)

Opens a new listener endpoint with the given socket address. Once the endpoint is fully initialized it starts accepting incoming connections and propagates I/O activity notifications to the I/O event dispatcher.

ListenerEndpoint.waitFor() can be used to wait for the listener to be come ready to accept incoming connections.

ListenerEndpoint.close() can be used to shut down the listener even before it is fully initialized.

Parameters:

address - the socket address to listen on.

Returns:

listener endpoint.

pause

void pause()
    throws java.io.IOException

Suspends the I/O reactor preventing it from accepting new connections on all active endpoints.

Throws:

java.io.IOException - in case of an I/O error.

resume

void resume()
     throws java.io.IOException

Resumes the I/O reactor restoring its ability to accept incoming connections on all active endpoints.

Throws:

java.io.IOException - in case of an I/O error.

getEndpoints

java.util.Set<ListenerEndpoint> getEndpoints()

Returns a set of endpoints for this I/O reactor.

Returns:

set of endpoints.
