public interface ChannelGroupFuture extends java.lang.Iterable<ChannelFuture>
ChannelGroup
operation.
ChannelGroupFuture
is composed of ChannelFuture
s which
represent the outcome of the individual I/O operations that affect the
Channel
s in the ChannelGroup
.
All I/O operations in ChannelGroup
are asynchronous. It means any
I/O calls will return immediately with no guarantee that the requested I/O
operations have been completed at the end of the call. Instead, you will be
returned with a ChannelGroupFuture
instance which tells you when the
requested I/O operations have succeeded, failed, or cancelled.
Various methods are provided to let you check if the I/O operations has been
completed, wait for the completion, and retrieve the result of the I/O
operation. It also allows you to add more than one
ChannelGroupFutureListener
so you can get notified when the I/O
operation have been completed.
addListener(ChannelGroupFutureListener)
to await()
addListener(ChannelGroupFutureListener)
to
await()
wherever possible to get notified when I/O operations are
done and to do any follow-up tasks.
addListener(ChannelGroupFutureListener)
is non-blocking. It simply
adds the specified ChannelGroupFutureListener
to the
ChannelGroupFuture
, and I/O thread will notify the listeners when
the I/O operations associated with the future is done.
ChannelGroupFutureListener
yields the best performance and resource
utilization because it does not block at all, but it could be tricky to
implement a sequential logic if you are not used to event-driven programming.
By contrast, await()
is a blocking operation. Once called, the
caller thread blocks until all I/O operations are done. It is easier to
implement a sequential logic with await()
, but the caller thread
blocks unnecessarily until all I/O operations are done and there's relatively
expensive cost of inter-thread notification. Moreover, there's a chance of
dead lock in a particular circumstance, which is described below.
await()
inside ChannelHandler
The event handler methods in ChannelHandler
is often called by
an I/O thread unless an ExecutionHandler
is in the
ChannelPipeline
. If await()
is called by an event handler
method, which is called by the I/O thread, the I/O operation it is waiting
for might never be complete because await()
can block the I/O
operation it is waiting for, which is a dead lock.
// BAD - NEVER DO THIS@Override
public void messageReceived(ChannelHandlerContext
ctx,MessageEvent
e) { if (e.getMessage() instanceof ShutdownMessage) {ChannelGroup
allChannels = MyServer.getAllChannels();ChannelGroupFuture
future = allChannels.close(); future.awaitUninterruptibly(); // Perform post-shutdown operation // ... } } // GOOD@Override
public void messageReceived(ChannelHandlerContext ctx, MessageEvent e) { if (e.getMessage() instanceof ShutdownMessage) {ChannelGroup
allChannels = MyServer.getAllChannels();ChannelGroupFuture
future = allChannels.close(); future.addListener(newChannelGroupFutureListener
() { public void operationComplete(ChannelGroupFuture
future) { // Perform post-closure operation // ... } }); } }
In spite of the disadvantages mentioned above, there are certainly the cases
where it is more convenient to call await()
. In such a case, please
make sure you do not call await()
in an I/O thread. Otherwise,
IllegalStateException
will be raised to prevent a dead lock.
