Class PktFactory.PktType

java.lang.Object

com.neeve.pkt.PktFactory.PktType

Enclosing class:

PktFactory

public static final class PktFactory.PktType
extends Object

Stores packet type information.

This class stores packet type information for use by the factory when instantiating packets. This class is only of interest to the user if the user is registering packet types programatically using PktFactory.registerPacketType(com.neeve.pkt.PktFactory.PktType, boolean).

Method Detail

create

public static final PktFactory.PktType create(int id,
                                              String name,
                                              String bodyClassName,
                                              boolean shouldPool,
                                              Properties props)

Create a new packet type object.

Parameters:

id - Each packet type in the system is uniquely identified using a packet id. This contains the unique identifier of the packet type being created.

name - A name used to describe the packet type. It is a fatal error to specify a name already in use by another packet type.

bodyClassName - The name of the class to be instantiated for the packet body when instantiating a packet of the specified type.

shouldPool - Indicates whether packets of this type should be pooled. Pooled packets are passed through a recycler to avoid garbage collection.

props - A set of properties to be associated with the packet type. Packet type properties are passed unchanged to the packet constructor when creating packets of that type.

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - Thrown in case any of the supplied arguments are invalid.

                                              Properties props)

Create a new packet type object.

Parameters:

id - Each packet type in the system is uniquely identified using a packet id. This contains the unique identifier of the packet type being created.

name - A name used to describe the packet type. It is a fatal error to specify a name already in use by another packet type.

bodyClassName - The name of the class to be instantiated for the packet body when instantiating a packet of the specified type.

shouldPool - Indicates whether packets of this type should be pooled. Pooled packets are passed through a recycler to avoid garbage collection.

poolParams - pool parameters that serve as the default values if shouldPool is true.

props - A set of properties to be associated with the packet type. Packet type properties are passed unchanged to the packet constructor when creating packets of that type.

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - Thrown in case any of the supplied arguments are invalid.
