Class AsynchronousServerSocketChannel

java.lang.Object

java.nio.channels.AsynchronousServerSocketChannel

All Implemented Interfaces:

Closeable, AutoCloseable, AsynchronousChannel, Channel, NetworkChannel

public abstract class AsynchronousServerSocketChannel
extends Object
implements AsynchronousChannel, NetworkChannel

An asynchronous channel for stream-oriented listening sockets.

An asynchronous server-socket channel is created by invoking the open method of this class. A newly-created asynchronous server-socket channel is open but not yet bound. It can be bound to a local address and configured to listen for connections by invoking the bind method. Once bound, the accept method is used to initiate the accepting of connections to the channel's socket. An attempt to invoke the accept method on an unbound channel will cause a NotYetBoundException to be thrown.

Channels of this type are safe for use by multiple concurrent threads though at most one accept operation can be outstanding at any time. If a thread initiates an accept operation before a previous accept operation has completed then an AcceptPendingException will be thrown.

Socket options are configured using the setOption method. Channels of this type support the following options:

Option Name	Description
SO_RCVBUF	The size of the socket receive buffer
SO_REUSEADDR	Re-use address

Additional (implementation specific) options may also be supported.

Usage Example:

  final AsynchronousServerSocketChannel listener =
      AsynchronousServerSocketChannel.open().bind(new InetSocketAddress(5000));

  listener.accept(null, new CompletionHandler<AsynchronousSocketChannel,Void>() {
      public void completed(AsynchronousSocketChannel ch, Void att) {
          // accept the next connection
          listener.accept(null, this);

          // handle this connection
          handle(ch);
      }
      public void failed(Throwable exc, Void att) {
          ...
      }
  });

Constructor Detail

AsynchronousServerSocketChannel

protected AsynchronousServerSocketChannel(AsynchronousChannelProvider provider)

Initializes a new instance of this class.

Parameters:

provider - The provider that created this channel

Method Detail

provider

public final AsynchronousChannelProvider provider()

Returns the provider that created this channel.

Returns:

The provider that created this channel

open

public static AsynchronousServerSocketChannel open(AsynchronousChannelGroup group)
                                            throws IOException

Opens an asynchronous server-socket channel.

The new channel is created by invoking the openAsynchronousServerSocketChannel method on the AsynchronousChannelProvider object that created the given group. If the group parameter is null then the resulting channel is created by the system-wide default provider, and bound to the default group.

Parameters:

group - The group to which the newly constructed channel should be bound, or null for the default group

Returns:

A new asynchronous server socket channel

Throws:

ShutdownChannelGroupException - If the channel group is shutdown

IOException - If an I/O error occurs

open

public static AsynchronousServerSocketChannel open()
                                            throws IOException

Opens an asynchronous server-socket channel.

This method returns an asynchronous server socket channel that is bound to the default group. This method is equivalent to evaluating the expression:

 open((AsynchronousChannelGroup)null);
 

Returns:

A new asynchronous server socket channel

Throws:

IOException - If an I/O error occurs

bind

public final AsynchronousServerSocketChannel bind(SocketAddress local)
                                           throws IOException

Binds the channel's socket to a local address and configures the socket to listen for connections.

An invocation of this method is equivalent to the following:

 bind(local, 0);
 

Specified by:

bind in interface NetworkChannel

Parameters:

local - The local address to bind the socket, or null to bind to an automatically assigned socket address

Returns:

This channel

Throws:

AlreadyBoundException - If the socket is already bound

UnsupportedAddressTypeException - If the type of the given address is not supported

SecurityException - If a security manager is installed and it denies an unspecified permission. An implementation of this interface should specify any required permissions.

ClosedChannelException - If the channel is closed

IOException - If some other I/O error occurs

NetworkChannel.getLocalAddress()

bind

public abstract AsynchronousServerSocketChannel bind(SocketAddress local,
                                                     int backlog)
                                              throws IOException

Binds the channel's socket to a local address and configures the socket to listen for connections.

This method is used to establish an association between the socket and a local address. Once an association is established then the socket remains bound until the associated channel is closed.

The backlog parameter is the maximum number of pending connections on the socket. Its exact semantics are implementation specific. In particular, an implementation may impose a maximum length or may choose to ignore the parameter altogther. If the backlog parameter has the value 0, or a negative value, then an implementation specific default is used.

Parameters:

local - The local address to bind the socket, or null to bind to an automatically assigned socket address

backlog - The maximum number of pending connections

Returns:

This channel

Throws:

AlreadyBoundException - If the socket is already bound

UnsupportedAddressTypeException - If the type of the given address is not supported

SecurityException - If a security manager has been installed and its checkListen method denies the operation

ClosedChannelException - If the channel is closed

IOException - If some other I/O error occurs

setOption

public abstract <T> AsynchronousServerSocketChannel setOption(SocketOption<T> name,
                                                              T value)
                                                       throws IOException

Description copied from interface: NetworkChannel

Sets the value of a socket option.

Specified by:

setOption in interface NetworkChannel

Type Parameters:

T - The type of the socket option value

Parameters:

name - The socket option

value - The value of the socket option. A value of null may be a valid value for some socket options.

Returns:

This channel

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - If the value is not a valid value for this socket option

ClosedChannelException - If this channel is closed

IOException - If an I/O error occurs

accept

public abstract <A> void accept(A attachment,
                                CompletionHandler<AsynchronousSocketChannel,? super A> handler)

Accepts a connection.

This method initiates an asynchronous operation to accept a connection made to this channel's socket. The handler parameter is a completion handler that is invoked when a connection is accepted (or the operation fails). The result passed to the completion handler is the AsynchronousSocketChannel to the new connection.

When a new connection is accepted then the resulting AsynchronousSocketChannel will be bound to the same AsynchronousChannelGroup as this channel. If the group is shutdown and a connection is accepted, then the connection is closed, and the operation completes with an IOException and cause ShutdownChannelGroupException.

To allow for concurrent handling of new connections, the completion handler is not invoked directly by the initiating thread when a new connection is accepted immediately (see Threading).

If a security manager has been installed then it verifies that the address and port number of the connection's remote endpoint are permitted by the security manager's checkAccept method. The permission check is performed with privileges that are restricted by the calling context of this method. If the permission check fails then the connection is closed and the operation completes with a SecurityException.

Type Parameters:

A - The type of the attachment

Parameters:

attachment - The object to attach to the I/O operation; can be null

handler - The handler for consuming the result

Throws:

AcceptPendingException - If an accept operation is already in progress on this channel

NotYetBoundException - If this channel's socket has not yet been bound

ShutdownChannelGroupException - If the channel group has terminated

accept

public abstract Future<AsynchronousSocketChannel> accept()

Accepts a connection.

This method initiates an asynchronous operation to accept a connection made to this channel's socket. The method behaves in exactly the same manner as the accept(Object, CompletionHandler) method except that instead of specifying a completion handler, this method returns a Future representing the pending result. The Future's get method returns the AsynchronousSocketChannel to the new connection on successful completion.

Returns:

a Future object representing the pending result

Throws:

AcceptPendingException - If an accept operation is already in progress on this channel

NotYetBoundException - If this channel's socket has not yet been bound

getLocalAddress

public abstract SocketAddress getLocalAddress()
                                       throws IOException

Returns the socket address that this channel's socket is bound to.

Where the channel is bound to an Internet Protocol socket address then the return value from this method is of type InetSocketAddress.

If there is a security manager set, its checkConnect method is called with the local address and -1 as its arguments to see if the operation is allowed. If the operation is not allowed, a SocketAddress representing the loopback address and the local port of the channel's socket is returned.

Specified by:

getLocalAddress in interface NetworkChannel

Returns:

The SocketAddress that the socket is bound to, or the SocketAddress representing the loopback address if denied by the security manager, or null if the channel's socket is not bound

Throws:

ClosedChannelException - If the channel is closed

IOException - If an I/O error occurs
