Class SctpChannel
- All Implemented Interfaces:
- Closeable,- AutoCloseable,- Channel,- InterruptibleChannel
 An SCTP channel can only control one SCTP association.
 An SCTPChannel is created by invoking one of the
 open methods of this class. A newly-created channel is open but
 not yet connected, that is, there is no association setup with a remote peer.
 An attempt to invoke an I/O operation upon an unconnected
 channel will cause a NotYetConnectedException to be
 thrown. An association can be setup by connecting the channel using one of
 its connect methods. Once connected, the channel remains
 connected until it is closed. Whether or not a channel is connected may be
 determined by invoking getRemoteAddresses.
 
 SCTP channels support non-blocking connection: A
 channel may be created and the process of establishing the link to
 the remote socket may be initiated via the connect method
 for later completion by the finishConnect method.
 Whether or not a connection operation is in progress may be determined by
 invoking the isConnectionPending method.
 
 Socket options are configured using the
 setOption method. An SCTP
 channel support the following options:
 
Additional (implementation specific) options may also be supported. The list of options supported is obtained by invoking the
Option Name Description SCTP_DISABLE_FRAGMENTSEnables or disables message fragmentation SCTP_EXPLICIT_COMPLETEEnables or disables explicit message completion SCTP_FRAGMENT_INTERLEAVEControls how the presentation of messages occur for the message receiver SCTP_INIT_MAXSTREAMSThe maximum number of streams requested by the local endpoint during association initialization SCTP_NODELAYEnables or disable a Nagle-like algorithm SCTP_PRIMARY_ADDRRequests that the local SCTP stack use the given peer address as the association primary SCTP_SET_PEER_PRIMARY_ADDRRequests that the peer mark the enclosed address as the association primary SO_SNDBUFThe size of the socket send buffer SO_RCVBUFThe size of the socket receive buffer SO_LINGERLinger on close if data is present (when configured in blocking mode only) 
supportedOptions  method.
  SCTP channels are safe for use by multiple concurrent threads.
 They support concurrent reading and writing, though at most one thread may be
 reading and at most one thread may be writing at any given time. The
 connect and finishConnect methods are mutually synchronized against each other, and
 an attempt to initiate a send or receive operation while an invocation of one
 of these methods is in progress will block until that invocation is complete.

Method Details- 
openOpens an SCTP channel.The new channel is unbound and unconnected. - Returns:
- A new SCTP channel
- Throws:
- UnsupportedOperationException- If the SCTP protocol is not supported
- IOException- If an I/O error occurs
 
- 
openpublic static SctpChannel open(SocketAddress remote, int maxOutStreams, int maxInStreams) throws IOException Opens an SCTP channel and connects it to a remote address.This is a convenience method and is equivalent to evaluating the following expression: open().connect(remote, maxOutStreams, maxInStreams); - Parameters:
- remote- The remote address to which the new channel is to be connected
- maxOutStreams- The number of streams that the application wishes to be able to send to. Must be non negative and no larger than- 65536.- 0to use the endpoints default value.
- maxInStreams- The maximum number of inbound streams the application is prepared to support. Must be non negative and no larger than- 65536.- 0to use the endpoints default value.
- Returns:
- A new SCTP channel connected to the given address
- Throws:
- AsynchronousCloseException- If another thread closes this channel while the connect operation is in progress
- ClosedByInterruptException- If another thread interrupts the current thread while the connect operation is in progress, thereby closing the channel and setting the current thread's interrupt status
- UnresolvedAddressException- If the given remote address is not fully resolved
- UnsupportedAddressTypeException- If the type of the given remote address is not supported
- UnsupportedOperationException- If the SCTP protocol is not supported
- IOException- If some other I/O error occurs
 
- 
associationReturns the association on this channel's socket.- Returns:
- the association, or nullif the channel's socket is not connected.
- Throws:
- ClosedChannelException- If the channel is closed
- IOException- If some other I/O error occurs
 
- 
bindBinds the channel's socket to a local address.This method is used to establish a relationship between the socket and the local addresses. Once a relationship is established then the socket remains bound until the channel is closed. This relationship may not necesssarily be with the address localas it may be removed byunbindAddress, but there will always be at least one local address bound to the channel's socket once an invocation of this method successfully completes.Once the channel's socket has been successfully bound to a specific address, that is not automatically assigned, more addresses may be bound to it using bindAddress, or removed usingunbindAddress.- Parameters:
- local- The local address to bind the socket, or- nullto bind the socket to an automatically assigned socket address
- Returns:
- This channel
- Throws:
- AlreadyConnectedException- If this channel is already connected
- ClosedChannelException- If this channel is closed
- ConnectionPendingException- If a non-blocking connection operation is already in progress on this channel
- AlreadyBoundException- If this channel is already bound
- UnsupportedAddressTypeException- If the type of the given address is not supported
- IOException- If some other I/O error occurs
 
- 
bindAddressAdds the given address to the bound addresses for the channel's socket.The given address must not be the wildcardaddress. The channel must be first bound usingbindbefore invoking this method, otherwiseNotYetBoundExceptionis thrown. Thebindmethod takes aSocketAddressas its argument which typically contains a port number as well as an address. Addresses subquently bound using this method are simply addresses as the SCTP port number remains the same for the lifetime of the channel.Adding addresses to a connected association is optional functionality. If the endpoint supports dynamic address reconfiguration then it may send the appropriate message to the peer to change the peers address lists. - Parameters:
- address- The address to add to the bound addresses for the socket
- Returns:
- This channel
- Throws:
- ClosedChannelException- If this channel is closed
- ConnectionPendingException- If a non-blocking connection operation is already in progress on this channel
- NotYetBoundException- If this channel is not yet bound
- AlreadyBoundException- If this channel is already bound to the given address
- IllegalArgumentException- If address is- nullor the- wildcardaddress
- IOException- If some other I/O error occurs
 
- 
unbindAddressRemoves the given address from the bound addresses for the channel's socket.The given address must not be the wildcardaddress. The channel must be first bound usingbindbefore invoking this method, otherwiseNotYetBoundExceptionis thrown. If this method is invoked on a channel that does not haveaddressas one of its bound addresses or that has only one local address bound to it, then this method throwsIllegalUnbindException. The initial address that the channel's socket is bound to usingbindmay be removed from the bound addresses for the channel's socket.Removing addresses from a connected association is optional functionality. If the endpoint supports dynamic address reconfiguration then it may send the appropriate message to the peer to change the peers address lists. - Parameters:
- address- The address to remove from the bound addresses for the socket
- Returns:
- This channel
- Throws:
- ClosedChannelException- If this channel is closed
- ConnectionPendingException- If a non-blocking connection operation is already in progress on this channel
- NotYetBoundException- If this channel is not yet bound
- IllegalArgumentException- If address is- nullor the- wildcardaddress
- IllegalUnbindException- If- addressis not bound to the channel's socket. or the channel has only one address bound to it
- IOException- If some other I/O error occurs
 
- 
connectConnects this channel's socket.If this channel is in non-blocking mode then an invocation of this method initiates a non-blocking connection operation. If the connection is established immediately, as can happen with a local connection, then this method returns true. Otherwise this method returnsfalseand the connection operation must later be completed by invoking thefinishConnectmethod.If this channel is in blocking mode then an invocation of this method will block until the connection is established or an I/O error occurs. This method may be invoked at any time. If a sendorreceiveoperation upon this channel is invoked while an invocation of this method is in progress then that operation will first block until this invocation is complete. If a connection attempt is initiated but fails, that is, if an invocation of this method throws a checked exception, then the channel will be closed.- Parameters:

- trueif a connection was established,- falseif this channel is in non-blocking mode and the connection operation is in progress
- Throws:
- AlreadyConnectedException- If this channel is already connected

- ClosedChannelException- If this channel is closed
- AsynchronousCloseException- If another thread closes this channel while the connect operation is in progress
- ClosedByInterruptException- If another thread interrupts the current thread while the connect operation is in progress, thereby closing the channel and setting the current thread's interrupt status
- UnresolvedAddressException- If the given remote address is not fully resolved
- UnsupportedAddressTypeException- If the type of the given remote address is not supported
- IOException- If some other I/O error occurs
 
- 
connectpublic abstract boolean connect(SocketAddress remote, int maxOutStreams, int maxInStreams) throws IOException Connects this channel's socket.This is a convience method and is equivalent to evaluating the following expression: setOption(SctpStandardSocketOptions.SCTP_INIT_MAXSTREAMS, SctpStandardSocketOption.InitMaxStreams.create(maxInStreams, maxOutStreams)) .connect(remote); The maxOutStreamsandmaxInStreamsparameters represent the maximum number of streams that the application wishes to be able to send to and receive from. They are negotiated with the remote peer and may be limited by the operating system.- Parameters:

- Throws:
- AlreadyConnectedException- If this channel is already connected
- ConnectionPendingException- If a non-blocking connection operation is already in progress on this channel
- ClosedChannelException- If this channel is closed

- 
isConnectionPendingpublic abstract boolean isConnectionPending()Tells whether or not a connection operation is in progress on this channel.- Returns:
- trueif, and only if, a connection operation has been initiated on this channel but not yet completed by invoking the- finishConnect()method
 
- 
finishConnectFinishes the process of connecting an SCTP channel.A non-blocking connection operation is initiated by placing a socket channel in non-blocking mode and then invoking one of its connectmethods. Once the connection is established, or the attempt has failed, the channel will become connectable and this method may be invoked to complete the connection sequence. If the connection operation failed then invoking this method will cause an appropriateIOExceptionto be thrown.If this channel is already connected then this method will not block and will immediately return true. If this channel is in non-blocking mode then this method will returnfalseif the connection process is not yet complete. If this channel is in blocking mode then this method will block until the connection either completes or fails, and will always either returntrueor throw a checked exception describing the failure.This method may be invoked at any time. If a sendorreceiveoperation upon this channel is invoked while an invocation of this method is in progress then that operation will first block until this invocation is complete. If a connection attempt fails, that is, if an invocation of this method throws a checked exception, then the channel will be closed.- Returns:
- trueif, and only if, this channel's socket is now connected
- Throws:
- NoConnectionPendingException- If this channel is not connected and a connection operation has not been initiated
- ClosedChannelException- If this channel is closed
- AsynchronousCloseException- If another thread closes this channel while the connect operation is in progress
- ClosedByInterruptException- If another thread interrupts the current thread while the connect operation is in progress, thereby closing the channel and setting the current thread's interrupt status
- IOException- If some other I/O error occurs
 
- 
getAllLocalAddressesReturns all of the socket addresses to which this channel's socket is bound.- Returns:
- All the socket addresses that this channel's socket is
          bound to, or an empty Setif the channel's socket is not bound
- Throws:
- ClosedChannelException- If the channel is closed
- IOException- If an I/O error occurs
 
- 
getRemoteAddressesReturns all of the remote addresses to which this channel's socket is connected.If the channel is connected to a remote peer that is bound to multiple addresses then it is these addresses that the channel's socket is connected. - Returns:
- All of the remote addresses to which this channel's socket
          is connected, or an empty Setif the channel's socket is not connected
- Throws:
- ClosedChannelException- If the channel is closed
- IOException- If an I/O error occurs
 
- 
shutdownShutdown a connection without closing the channel.Sends a shutdown command to the remote peer, effectively preventing any new data from being written to the socket by either peer. Further sends will throw ClosedChannelException. The channel remains open to allow the for any data (and notifications) to be received that may have been sent by the peer before it received the shutdown command. If the channel is already shutdown then invoking this method has no effect.- Returns:
- This channel
- Throws:
- NotYetConnectedException- If this channel is not yet connected
- ClosedChannelException- If this channel is closed
- IOException- If some other I/O error occurs
 
-

- See Also:
 
- 
setOptionSets the value of a socket option.- Type Parameters:
- T- The type of the socket option value

- A set of the socket options supported by this channel
 
- 
validOpspublic final int validOps()Returns an operation set identifying this channel's supported operations.SCTP channels support connecting, reading, and writing, so this method returns (SelectionKey.OP_CONNECT|SelectionKey.OP_READ|SelectionKey.OP_WRITE).- Specified by:
- validOpsin class- SelectableChannel
- Returns:
- The valid-operation set
 
- 
receivepublic abstract <T> MessageInfo receive(ByteBuffer dst, T attachment, NotificationHandler<T> handler) throws IOException Receives a message into the given buffer and/or handles a notification.If a message or notification is immediately available, or if this channel is in blocking mode and one eventually becomes available, then the message or notification is returned or handled, respectively. If this channel is in non-blocking mode and a message or notification is not immediately available then this method immediately returns null.If this method receives a message it is copied into the given byte buffer. The message is transferred into the given byte buffer starting at its current position and the buffers position is incremented by the number of bytes read. If there are fewer bytes remaining in the buffer than are required to hold the message, or the underlying input buffer does not contain the complete message, then an invocation of isCompleteon the returnedMessageInfowill returnfalse, and more invocations of this method will be necessary to completely consume the messgae. Only one message at a time will be partially delivered in any stream. The socket optionSCTP_FRAGMENT_INTERLEAVEcontrols various aspects of what interlacing of messages occurs.If this method receives a notification then the appropriate method of the given handler, if there is one, is invoked. If the handler returns CONTINUEthen this method will try to receive another message/notification, otherwise, ifRETURNis returned this method will returnnull. If an uncaught exception is thrown by the handler it will be propagated up the stack through this method.This method may be invoked at any time. If another thread has already initiated a receive operation upon this channel, then an invocation of this method will block until the first operation is complete. The given handler is invoked without holding any locks used to enforce the above synchronization policy, that way handlers will not stall other threads from receiving. A handler should not invoke the receivemethod of this channel, if it does anIllegalReceiveExceptionwill be thrown.- Type Parameters:
- T- The type of the attachment
- Parameters:
- dst- The buffer into which message bytes are to be transferred
- attachment- The object to attach to the receive operation; can be- null
- handler- A handler to handle notifications from the SCTP stack, or- nullto ignore any notifications.
- Returns:
- The MessageInfo,nullif this channel is in non-blocking mode and no messages are immediately available or the notification handler returnsRETURNafter handling a notification
- Throws:
- ClosedChannelException- If this channel is closed
- AsynchronousCloseException- If another thread closes this channel while the read operation is in progress
- ClosedByInterruptException- If another thread interrupts the current thread while the read operation is in progress, thereby closing the channel and setting the current thread's interrupt status
- NotYetConnectedException- If this channel is not yet connected
- IllegalReceiveException- If the given handler invokes the- receivemethod of this channel
- IOException- If some other I/O error occurs
 
- 
sendSends a message via this channel.If this channel is in non-blocking mode and there is sufficient room in the underlying output buffer, or if this channel is in blocking mode and sufficient room becomes available, then the remaining bytes in the given byte buffer are transmitted as a single message. Sending a message is atomic unless explicit message completion SCTP_EXPLICIT_COMPLETEsocket option is enabled on this channel's socket.The message is transferred from the byte buffer as if by a regular writeoperation.The bytes will be written to the stream number that is specified by streamNumberin the givenmessageInfo.This method may be invoked at any time. If another thread has already initiated a send operation upon this channel, then an invocation of this method will block until the first operation is complete. - Parameters:
- src- The buffer containing the message to be sent
- messageInfo- Ancillary data about the message to be sent
- Returns:
- The number of bytes sent, which will be either the number of bytes that were remaining in the messages buffer when this method was invoked or, if this channel is non-blocking, may be zero if there was insufficient room for the message in the underlying output buffer
- Throws:
- InvalidStreamException- If- streamNumneris negative or greater than or equal to the maximum number of outgoing streams
- ClosedChannelException- If this channel is closed
- AsynchronousCloseException- If another thread closes this channel while the read operation is in progress
- ClosedByInterruptException- If another thread interrupts the current thread while the read operation is in progress, thereby closing the channel and setting the current thread's interrupt status
- NotYetConnectedException- If this channel is not yet connected
- IOException- If some other I/O error occurs
