All Superinterfaces:

Flushable

Enclosing class:

BufferPipeOutputStream

public static interface BufferPipeOutputStream.BufferWriter
extends Flushable

A buffer writer for an BufferPipeOutputStream.

Method Summary

void	accept(Pooled<ByteBuffer> pooledBuffer, boolean eof) Accept a buffer.
void	flush() Flushes this stream by writing any buffered output to the underlying stream.
Pooled<ByteBuffer>	getBuffer(boolean firstBuffer) Get a new buffer to be filled.

Method Detail

getBuffer

Pooled<ByteBuffer> getBuffer(boolean firstBuffer)
                             throws IOException

Get a new buffer to be filled. The new buffer may, for example, include a prepended header. This method may block until a buffer is available or until some other condition, such as flow control, is met.

Parameters:

firstBuffer - true if this is the first buffer in the stream, false otherwise

Returns:

the new buffer

Throws:

IOException - if an I/O error occurs

accept

void accept(Pooled<ByteBuffer> pooledBuffer,
            boolean eof)
            throws IOException

Accept a buffer. If this is the last buffer that will be sent, the eof flag will be set to true. This method should block until the entire buffer is consumed, or an error occurs. This method may also block until some other condition, such as flow control, is met.

Parameters:

pooledBuffer - the buffer to send

eof - true if this is the last buffer which will be sent

Throws:

IOException - if an I/O error occurs

flush

void flush()
           throws IOException

Flushes this stream by writing any buffered output to the underlying stream. This method should block until the data is fully flushed. This method may also block until some other condition, such as flow control, is met.

Throws:

IOException - If an I/O error occurs
