    • Method Detail

      • process

        public Packet process​(Packet p)
        "Dual stack" compatibility mechanism. Allows Tube to be invoked from a Pipe.
        Specified by:
        process in interface Pipe
        Parameters:
        p - The packet that represents a request message. Must not be null. If the packet has a non-null message, it must be a valid unconsumed Message. This message represents the SOAP message to be sent as a request.

        The packet is also allowed to carry no message, which indicates that this is an output-only request. (that's called "solicit", right? - KK)

        Returns:
        The packet that represents a response message. Must not be null. If the packet has a non-null message, it must be a valid unconsumed Message. This message represents a response to the request message passed as a parameter.

        The packet is also allowed to carry no message, which indicates that there was no response. This is used for things like one-way message and/or one-way transports.

      • copy

        public final AbstractTubeImpl copy​(PipeCloner cloner)
        Needs to be implemented by the derived class, but we can't make it abstract without upsetting javac.
        Specified by:
        copy in interface Pipe
        Parameters:
        cloner - Use this object (in particular its PipeCloner.copy(Pipe) method to clone other pipe references you have in your pipe. See PipeCloner for more discussion about why.
        Returns:
        always non-null Pipe.
      • copy

        public abstract AbstractTubeImpl copy​(TubeCloner cloner)
        Description copied from interface: Tube
        Creates an identical clone of this Tube.

        This method creates an identical pipeline that can be used concurrently with this pipeline. When the caller of a pipeline is multi-threaded and need concurrent use of the same pipeline, it can do so by creating copies through this method.

        Implementation Note

        It is the implementation's responsibility to call TubeCloner.add(Tube,Tube) to register the copied pipe with the original. This is required before you start copying the other Tube references you have, or else there's a risk of infinite recursion.

        For most Tube implementations that delegate to another Tube, this method requires that you also copy the Tube that you delegate to.

        For limited number of Tubes that do not maintain any thread unsafe resource, it is allowed to simply return this from this method (notice that even if you are stateless, if you got a delegating Tube and that one isn't stateless, you still have to copy yourself.)

        Note that this method might be invoked by one thread while another thread is executing the other process method. See the Codec.copy() for more discussion about this.

        Specified by:
        copy in interface Tube
        Parameters:
        cloner - Use this object (in particular its TubeCloner.copy(Tube) method to clone other pipe references you have in your pipe. See TubeCloner for more discussion about why.
        Returns:
        always non-null Tube.
