Constructor Detail

MarshallingDecoder

public MarshallingDecoder(UnmarshallerProvider provider)

Creates a new decoder whose maximum object size is 1048576 bytes. If the size of the received object is greater than 1048576 bytes, a StreamCorruptedException will be raised.

MarshallingDecoder

public MarshallingDecoder(UnmarshallerProvider provider,
                  int maxObjectSize)

Creates a new decoder with the specified maximum object size.

Parameters:

maxObjectSize - the maximum byte length of the serialized object. if the length of the received object is greater than this value, TooLongFrameException will be raised.

Method Detail

decode

protected Object decode(ChannelHandlerContext ctx,
            ByteBuf in)
                 throws Exception

Description copied from class: LengthFieldBasedFrameDecoder

Create a frame out of the ByteBuf and return it.

Overrides:

decode in class LengthFieldBasedFrameDecoder

Parameters:

ctx - the ChannelHandlerContext which this ByteToMessageDecoder belongs to

in - the ByteBuf from which to read data

Returns:

frame the ByteBuf which represent the frame or null if no frame could be created.

Throws:

Exception

extractFrame

protected ByteBuf extractFrame(ChannelHandlerContext ctx,
                   ByteBuf buffer,
                   int index,
                   int length)

Description copied from class: LengthFieldBasedFrameDecoder

Extract the sub-region of the specified buffer.

If you are sure that the frame and its content are not accessed after the current LengthFieldBasedFrameDecoder.decode(ChannelHandlerContext, ByteBuf) call returns, you can even avoid memory copy by returning the sliced sub-region (i.e. return buffer.slice(index, length)). It's often useful when you convert the extracted frame into an object. Refer to the source code of ObjectDecoder to see how this method is overridden to avoid memory copy.

Overrides:

extractFrame in class LengthFieldBasedFrameDecoder
