expressInterest

public long expressInterest(Interest interest,
                   OnData onData,
                   OnTimeout onTimeout,
                   OnNetworkNack onNetworkNack,
                   WireFormat wireFormat)
                     throws IOException

Send the Interest through the transport, read the entire response and call onData, onTimeout or onNetworkNack as described below.

Parameters:

interest - The Interest to send. This copies the Interest.

onData - When a matching data packet is received, this calls onData.onData(interest, data) where interest is the interest given to expressInterest and data is the received Data object. NOTE: You must not change the interest object - if you need to change it then make a copy. NOTE: The library will log any exceptions thrown by this callback, but for better error handling the callback should catch and properly handle any exceptions.

onTimeout - If the interest times out according to the interest lifetime, this calls onTimeout.onTimeout(interest) where interest is the interest given to expressInterest. If onTimeout is null, this does not use it. NOTE: The library will log any exceptions thrown by this callback, but for better error handling the callback should catch and properly handle any exceptions.

onNetworkNack - When a network Nack packet for the interest is received and onNetworkNack is not null, this calls onNetworkNack.onNetworkNack(interest, networkNack) and does not call onTimeout. However, if a network Nack is received and onNetworkNack is null, do nothing and wait for the interest to time out. (Therefore, an application which does not yet process a network Nack reason treats a Nack the same as a timeout.) NOTE: The library will log any exceptions thrown by this callback, but for better error handling the callback should catch and properly handle any exceptions.

wireFormat - A WireFormat object used to encode the message.

Returns:

The pending interest ID which can be used with removePendingInterest.

Throws:

IOException - For I/O error in sending the interest.

Error - If the encoded interest size exceeds getMaxNdnPacketSize().

NOTE: The library will log any exceptions thrown by this callback, but for better error handling the callback should catch and properly handle any exceptions.

onNetworkNack - When a network Nack packet for the interest is received and onNetworkNack is not null, this calls onNetworkNack.onNetworkNack(interest, networkNack) and does not call onTimeout. However, if a network Nack is received and onNetworkNack is null, do nothing and wait for the interest to time out. (Therefore, an application which does not yet process a network Nack reason treats a Nack the same as a timeout.)

                   WireFormat wireFormat)
                     throws IOException

Encode name as an Interest. If interestTemplate is not null, use its interest selectors. Send the Interest through the transport, read the entire response and call onData as described below. Ignore if the interest times out.

Parameters:

name - A Name for the interest. This copies the Name.

interestTemplate - If not null, copy interest selectors from the template. This does not keep a pointer to the Interest object.

onData - When a matching data packet is received, this calls onData.onData(interest, data) where interest is the interest given to expressInterest and data is the received Data object. NOTE: You must not change the interest object - if you need to change it then make a copy. NOTE: The library will log any exceptions thrown by this callback, but for better error handling the callback should catch and properly handle any exceptions.

wireFormat - A WireFormat object used to encode the message.

Returns:

The pending interest ID which can be used with removePendingInterest.

Throws:

IOException - For I/O error in sending the interest.

Error - If the encoded interest size exceeds getMaxNdnPacketSize().

This method only modifies the library's local callback table and does not register the prefix with the forwarder. It will always succeed. To register a prefix with the forwarder, use registerPrefix.

Parameters:

filter - The InterestFilter with a prefix and optional regex filter used to match the name of an incoming Interest. This makes a copy of filter.

onInterest - When an Interest is received which matches the filter, this calls onInterest.onInterest(prefix, interest, face, interestFilterId, filter). NOTE: The library will log any exceptions thrown by this callback, but for better error handling the callback should catch and properly handle any exceptions.

Returns:

The interest filter ID which can be used with unsetInterestFilter.

setInterestFilter

public long setInterestFilter(Name prefix,
                     OnInterestCallback onInterest)

Add an entry to the local interest filter table to call the onInterest callback for a matching incoming Interest. This method only modifies the library's local callback table and does not register the prefix with the forwarder. It will always succeed. To register a prefix with the forwarder, use registerPrefix.

Parameters:

prefix - The Name prefix used to match the name of an incoming Interest.

onInterest - This creates an interest filter from prefix so that when an Interest is received which matches the filter, this calls onInterest.onInterest(prefix, interest, face, interestFilterId, filter). NOTE: The library will log any exceptions thrown by this callback, but for better error handling the callback should catch and properly handle any exceptions.

Returns:

The interest filter ID which can be used with unsetInterestFilter.

unsetInterestFilter

public void unsetInterestFilter(long interestFilterId)

Remove the interest filter entry which has the interestFilterId from the interest filter table. This does not affect another interest filter with a different interestFilterId, even if it has the same prefix name. If there is no entry with the interestFilterId, do nothing.

Parameters:

interestFilterId - The ID returned from setInterestFilter.

putData

public void putData(Data data,
           WireFormat wireFormat)
             throws IOException

The OnInterestCallback calls this to put a Data packet which satisfies an Interest.

Parameters:

data - The Data packet which satisfies the interest.

wireFormat - A WireFormat object used to encode the Data packet.

Throws:

Error - If the encoded Data packet size exceeds getMaxNdnPacketSize().

IOException

putData

public void putData(Data data)
             throws IOException

The OnInterestCallback calls this to put a Data packet which satisfies an Interest. This uses the default WireFormat.getDefaultWireFormat() to encode data.

Parameters:

data - The Data packet which satisfies the interest.

Throws:

Error - If the encoded Data packet size exceeds getMaxNdnPacketSize().

IOException

send

public void send(Blob encoding)
          throws IOException

Send the encoded packet out through the face.

Parameters:

encoding - The blob with the the encoded packet to send.

Throws:

Error - If the encoded packet size exceeds getMaxNdnPacketSize().

IOException

send

public void send(ByteBuffer encoding)
          throws IOException

Send the encoded packet out through the face.

Parameters:

encoding - The array of bytes for the encoded packet to send. This reads from position() to limit(), but does not change the position.

Throws:

Error - If the encoded packet size exceeds getMaxNdnPacketSize().

IOException

processEvents

public void processEvents()
                   throws IOException,
                          EncodingException

Process any packets to receive and call callbacks such as onData, onInterest or onTimeout. This returns immediately if there is no data to receive. This blocks while calling the callbacks. You should repeatedly call this from an event loop, with calls to sleep as needed so that the loop doesn’t use 100% of the CPU. Since processEvents modifies the pending interest table, your application should make sure that it calls processEvents in the same thread as expressInterest (which also modifies the pending interest table). This may throw an exception for reading data or in the callback for processing the data. If you call this from an main event loop, you may want to catch and log/disregard all exceptions.

Throws:

IOException

EncodingException

isLocal

public boolean isLocal()
                throws IOException

Check if the face is local based on the current connection through the Transport; some Transport may cause network IO (e.g. an IP host name lookup).

Returns:

True if the face is local, false if not.

Throws:

IOException

Note:

This is an experimental feature. This API may change in the future.

shutdown

public void shutdown()

Shut down and disconnect this Face.

getMaxNdnPacketSize

public static int getMaxNdnPacketSize()

Get the practical limit of the size of a network-layer packet. If a packet is larger than this, the library or application MAY drop it.

Returns:

The maximum NDN packet size.

callLater

public void callLater(double delayMilliseconds,
             Runnable callback)

Call callback.run() after the given delay. Even though this is public, it is not part of the public API of Face. This default implementation just calls Node.callLater, but a subclass can override.

Parameters:

delayMilliseconds - The delay in milliseconds.

callback - This calls callback.run() after the delay.

getInterestCopy

protected static Interest getInterestCopy(Name name,
                       Interest interestTemplate)

Do the work of expressInterest to make an Interest based on name and interestTemplate.

Parameters:

name - A Name for the interest. This copies the Name.

interestTemplate - if not null, copy interest selectors from the template. This does not keep a pointer to the Interest object.

Returns:

The Interest, suitable for Node.expressInterest.
