    • Method Detail

      • acceptClient

        public T acceptClient()
                       throws IOException
        Deprecated.
        Accepts the next client that appears on this listener.

        An implementation of this method is expected to block the calling thread and not return until either a client appears or an exception occurs.

        Specified by:
        acceptClient in interface ServerListener<T extends Client>
        Returns:
        client object
        Throws:
        IOException
      • close

        public void close()
        Deprecated.
        Closes any underlying Closeable resources associated with this listener.

        Note that (as described in Doug Lea's discussion about interrupting I/O operations in "Concurrent Programming in Java" (Addison-Wesley Professional, 2nd edition, 1999) this method is used to interrupt any blocked I/O operation in the client when the server is shutting down. The client implementation must anticipate this potential, and gracefully exit when the blocked I/O operation throws the relevant IOException subclass.

        Note also, that unlike Closeable.close() this method is not permitted to propagate any IOException that occurs when closing the underlying resource(s).
