Class BlockingCallback

java.lang.Object

org.eclipse.jetty.util.BlockingCallback

All Implemented Interfaces:

Callback

public class BlockingCallback
extends Object
implements Callback

A Callback for simple reusable conversion of an asynchronous API to blocking.

To avoid late redundant calls to succeeded() or failed(Throwable) from interfering with later reuses of this class, the callback context is used to hold pass a phase indicated and only a single callback per phase is allowed.

A typical usage pattern is:

 public class MyClass
 {
     BlockingCallback cb = new BlockingCallback();
     
     public void blockingMethod(Object args) throws Exception
     {
         asyncMethod(args,cb);
         cb.block();
     }
     
     public void asyncMethod(Object args, Callback callback)
     {
         ...
     }
  }

Method Detail

succeeded

public void succeeded()

Description copied from interface: Callback

Callback invoked when the operation completes.

Specified by:

succeeded in interface Callback

See Also:

Callback.failed(Throwable)

failed

public void failed(Throwable cause)

Description copied from interface: Callback

Callback invoked when the operation fails.

Specified by:

failed in interface Callback

Parameters:

cause - the reason for the operation failure

block

public void block()
           throws IOException

Block until the FutureCallback is done or cancelled and after the return leave in the state as if a #reset() had been done. This is useful for code that wants to repeatable use a FutureCallback to convert an asynchronous API to a blocking API.

Throws:

IOException

toString

public String toString()
