- Method Detail
  - receive
```
default void receive(Message msg)
```
    Called when a message is received.
    
    Parameters:
    
    msg - The message
  - receive
```
default void receive(MessageBatch batch)
```
    Called when a batch of messages is received
    
    Parameters:
    
    batch - The message batch
  - viewAccepted
```
default void viewAccepted(View new_view)
```
    Called when a change in membership has occurred. No long running actions, sending of messages or anything that could block should be done in this callback. If some long running action needs to be performed, it should be done in a separate thread.
    Note that on reception of the first view (a new member just joined), the channel will not yet be in the connected state. This only happens when JChannel.connect(String) returns.
  - getState
```
default void getState(java.io.OutputStream out)
               throws java.lang.Exception
```
    Allows an application to write the state to an OutputStream. After the state has been written, the OutputStream doesn't need to be closed as stream closing is automatically done when a calling thread returns from this callback.
    
    Parameters:
    
    out - The OutputStream
    
    Throws:
    
    java.lang.Exception - If the streaming fails, any exceptions should be thrown so that the state requester can re-throw them and let the caller know what happened
  - setState
```
default void setState(java.io.InputStream in)
               throws java.lang.Exception
```
    Allows an application to read the state from an InputStream. After the state has been read, the InputStream doesn't need to be closed as stream closing is automatically done when a calling thread returns from this callback.
    
    Parameters:
    
    in - The InputStream
    
    Throws:
    
    java.lang.Exception - If the streaming fails, any exceptions should be thrown so that the state requester can catch them and thus know what happened
