Method Detail

init

public void init()
          throws java.io.IOException

initializes the endpoint

Throws:

java.io.IOException

getEndpointURI

public java.net.URI getEndpointURI()

Returns:

the address of this endpoint

getSendURI

public java.net.URI getSendURI()

Returns:

the address being sent to by this endpoint (if known)

isInputEndpoint

public boolean isInputEndpoint()

Returns:

true if this endpoint is input enabled

isOutputEndpoint

public boolean isOutputEndpoint()

Returns:

true if this endpoint is output enabled

addEndpointMessageListener

public void addEndpointMessageListener(EndpointMessageListener listener)

Adds a listener to receive data from this endpoint

removeEndpointMessageListener

public void removeEndpointMessageListener(EndpointMessageListener listener)

Removes a listener from this endpoint

send

public void send(byte[] message)
          throws java.io.IOException

Sends a message from the endpoint to the address the endpoint is bound to, with no sendid.

Throws:

java.io.IOException

send

public void send(java.lang.String sendid,
                 byte[] message)
          throws java.io.IOException

Sends a message from the endpoint to the address the endpoint is bound to, along with the send id for this message.

Throws:

java.io.IOException

close

public void close()
           throws java.io.IOException

Closes the endpoint. Note that the endpoint is not guaranteed closed until isClosed returns true.

Throws:

java.io.IOException

isClosed

public boolean isClosed()

Returns:

true if the endpoint is closed
