TcpConnectionHandler

public interface TcpConnectionHandler
This interface will be implemented by any object that uses TcpConnections. It is supported by the pool tcp connection manager and should be supported by future managers. The goal is to decouple the connection handler from the thread, socket and pooling complexity.

Fields Summary
Constructors Summary
Methods Summary
public java.lang.Object[]init()
Called before the call to processConnection. If the thread is reused, init() should be called once per thread. It may look strange, but it's a _very_ good way to avoid synchronized methods and keep per thread data. Assert: the object returned from init() will be passed to all processConnection() methods happening in the same thread.

public voidprocessConnection(TcpConnection connection, java.lang.Object[] thData)
Assert: connection!=null Assert: connection.getSocket() != null Assert: thData != null and is the result of calling init() Assert: thData is preserved per Thread.

public voidsetAttribute(java.lang.String name, java.lang.Object value)
Used to pass config informations to the handler

deprecated.
This has nothing to do with Tcp, was used as a workaround

public voidsetServer(java.lang.Object manager)
Add informations about the a "controler" object specific to the server. In tomcat it will be a ContextManager.
