Interface MJCTransport

All Superinterfaces:

MJCConfigureable, MJCReadable, MJCWriteable, java.lang.Runnable

All Known Implementing Classes:

MJCTCPTransport

public interface MJCTransport

extends MJCWriteable, MJCReadable, MJCConfigureable, java.lang.Runnable

Bottom level layer in the MJC layer hierarchy responsible for the basic connection between the client and server side. This layer has to ensure the transfer of the streams between the two sides.

Method Detail

getTransportName

public java.lang.String getTransportName()

Returns the MJC name of the MJCTransport.

Returns:

String: the MJC name of the MJCTransport

getTransportVersion

public java.lang.String getTransportVersion()

Returns the MJC version of the MJCTransport.

Returns:

String: the MJC version of the MJCTransport

initAsServer

public void initAsServer(int port)
                  throws java.io.IOException

Initializes the MJCTransport as the server side. Clients can connect to the specified port.

Parameters:

int - port: the port where the clients can connect

Throws:

IOException: - if the server could not be started

initAsClient

public void initAsClient(java.lang.String host,

Generates a checksum for a String.

Parameters:

String: - the String for which a checksum is needed

Returns:

String: the checksum

setServerManager

public void setServerManager(MJCServerManager serverManager)

Sets the MJCServerManager which will be notified if a client connects.

Parameters:

MJCServerManager - serverManager: the MJCServerManager that has to be notified if a client connects

getServerManager

public MJCServerManager getServerManager()

Returns the MJCServerManager which will be notified if a client connects.
