Method Detail

setTimeout

void setTimeout(Long timeout)

Set the time required for concurrent handling to complete. This property should not be set when concurrent handling is in progress, i.e. when isAsyncStarted() is true.

Parameters:

timeout - amount of time in milliseconds; null means no timeout, i.e. rely on the default timeout of the container.

addTimeoutHandler

void addTimeoutHandler(Runnable runnable)

Add a handler to invoke when concurrent handling has timed out.

addCompletionHandler

void addCompletionHandler(Runnable runnable)

Add a handle to invoke when request processing completes.

startAsync

void startAsync()

Mark the start of asynchronous request processing so that when the main processing thread exits, the response remains open for further processing in another thread.

Throws:

IllegalStateException - if async processing has completed or is not supported

isAsyncStarted

boolean isAsyncStarted()

Whether the request is in async mode following a call to startAsync(). Returns "false" if asynchronous processing never started, has completed, or the request was dispatched for further processing.

dispatch

void dispatch()

Dispatch the request to the container in order to resume processing after concurrent execution in an application thread.

isAsyncComplete

boolean isAsyncComplete()

Whether asynchronous processing has completed.
