      com.sun.squawk.io.j2me.multicastoutput.Protocol

All Implemented Interfaces:

Connection, OutputConnection

public class Protocol
extends ConnectionBase
implements OutputConnection

GCF connection that multicasts to a number of configured output streams. The connection can be established without specifying any delegate streams and have the delegate streams added as a separate operation as shown below:

     MulticastOutputStream mos = (MulticastOutputStream)Connector.openOutputStream("multicastoutput:");
     OutputStream fos = Connector.openOutputStream("file://out.txt;append=true");
     OutputStream sos = Connector.openOutputStream("socket://host.domain.com:9999");
     DataOutputStream dos = new DataOutputStream(mos);
     mos.add(fos);
     mos.add(sos);

     dos.writeUTF("Hello World");
 

Or the connection can be established and have one or more initial delegate streams opened as shown below:

     MulticastOutputStream mos = (MulticastOutputStream)Connector.openOutputStream("multicastoutput:file://out.txt\;append=true;socket://host.domain.com:9999");
     DataOutputStream dos = new DataOutputStream(mos);

     dos.writeUTF("Hello World");
 

As indicated above, the URLs for any initial delegates are separated by ; and as such must have any embedded ;s escaped with a backslash.

Method Detail

open

public Connection open(String protocol,
                       String name,
                       int mode,
                       boolean timeouts)
                throws IOException

Opens the connection.

Specified by:

open in class ConnectionBase

Parameters:

protocol - The URL protocol

name - The URL for the connection

mode - The access mode

timeouts - A flag to indicate that the caller wants timeout exceptions

Returns:

A new Connection object

Throws:

ConnectionNotFoundException - If the connection cannot be found.

IOException - If some other kind of I/O error occurs.

openOutputStream

public OutputStream openOutputStream()
                              throws IOException

Opens and returns an output stream for this connection. The returned output stream will be a MulticastOutputStream instance.

Specified by:

openOutputStream in interface OutputConnection

Overrides:

openOutputStream in class ConnectionBase

Returns:

a MulticastOutputStream instance

Throws:

IOException - if an I/O error occurs
