Interface MobyRequestEventHandler

All Known Implementing Classes:

MobyContentClipboard, MobyContentGUI, MobyContentHelpPane, MobyContentPane, MobyShimmer

public interface MobyRequestEventHandler

This interface is used for callbacks when MobyRequest is acting as a server or client. Similar to how a MouseListener will get mousePressed() callbacks for GUI components it is registered with (via component.addMouseListener()), processEvent() will be called in the implementing class when MOBYRequest receives a connection from a client [server mode], or receives a response from a server [client mode]. This of course requires that you've registered the listener using MobyRequest.addEventHandler().

Method Summary

void	processEvent(MobyRequestEvent mre)
void	start(MobyRequestEvent request) If a client, denotes that a service request has been sent (and the contents is exactly what is being sent to the service).
void	stop(MobyRequest request, int requestID) If a client, denotes the end of a service request.

Method Detail

start

void start(MobyRequestEvent request)

If a client, denotes that a service request has been sent (and the contents is exactly what is being sent to the service). If a server, denotes that you should be ready to start receiving events (an init of sorts)

processEvent

void processEvent(MobyRequestEvent mre)

stop

void stop(MobyRequest request,
          int requestID)

If a client, denotes the end of a service request. If a server, denotes that the server is shutting down/this event handler should terminate.
