Class ProtocolStack

  • Direct Known Subclasses:
    ForkProtocolStack

    public class ProtocolStack
    extends Protocol
    A ProtocolStack manages a number of protocols layered above each other. It creates all protocol classes, initializes them and, when ready, starts all of them, beginning with the bottom most protocol. It also dispatches messages received from the stack to registered objects (e.g. channel, GMP) and sends messages sent by those objects down the stack.

    The ProtocolStack makes use of the Configurator to setup and initialize stacks, and to destroy them again when not needed anymore

        Inserts an already created (and initialized) protocol into the protocol list. Sets the links to the protocols above and below correctly and adjusts the linked list of protocols accordingly. Note that this method may change the value of top_prot or bottom_prot.
        Parameters:
        prot - The protocol to be inserted. Before insertion, a sanity check will ensure that none of the existing protocols have the same name as the new protocol.
        position - Where to place the protocol with respect to the neighbor_prot (ABOVE, BELOW)
        neighbor_prot - The name of the neighbor protocol. An exception will be thrown if this name is not found
        Throws:
        java.lang.Exception - Will be thrown when the new protocol cannot be created, or inserted.

      • up

        public java.lang.Object up​(Event evt)
        Description copied from class: Protocol
        An event was received from the protocol below. Usually the current protocol will want to examine the event type and - depending on its type - perform some computation (e.g. removing headers from a MSG event type, or updating the internal membership list when receiving a VIEW_CHANGE event). Finally the event is either a) discarded, or b) an event is sent down the stack using down_prot.down() or c) the event (or another event) is sent up the stack using up_prot.up().
        Overrides:
        up in class Protocol
      • up

        public java.lang.Object up​(Message msg)
        Description copied from class: Protocol
        A single message was received. Protocols may examine the message and do something (e.g. add a header) with it before passing it up.
        Overrides:
        up in class Protocol
      • up

        public void up​(MessageBatch batch)
        Description copied from class: Protocol
        Sends up a multiple messages in a MessageBatch. The sender of the batch is always the same, and so is the destination (null == multicast messages). Messages in a batch can be OOB messages, regular messages, or mixed messages, although the transport itself will create initial MessageBatches that contain only either OOB or regular messages.

        The default processing below sends messages up the stack individually, based on a matching criteria (calling Protocol.accept(org.jgroups.Message)), and - if true - calls Protocol.up(org.jgroups.Event) for that message and removes the message. If the batch is not empty, it is passed up, or else it is dropped.

        Subclasses should check if there are any messages destined for them (e.g. using MessageBatch.getMatchingMessages(short,boolean)), then possibly remove and process them and finally pass the batch up to the next protocol. Protocols can also modify messages in place, e.g. ENCRYPT could decrypt all encrypted messages in the batch, not remove them, and pass the batch up when done.

        Overrides:
        up in class Protocol
        Parameters:
        batch - The message batch
      • down

        public java.lang.Object down​(Event evt)
        Description copied from class: Protocol
        An event is to be sent down the stack. A protocol may want to examine its type and perform some action on it, depending on the event's type. If the event is a message MSG, then the protocol may need to add a header to it (or do nothing at all) before sending it down the stack using down_prot.down().
        Overrides:
        down in class Protocol
      • down

        public java.lang.Object down​(Message msg)
        Description copied from class: Protocol
        A message is sent down the stack. Protocols may examine the message and do something (e.g. add a header) with it before passing it down.
        Overrides:
        down in class Protocol
