public interface Decoder
Decode AMQP types from a byte stream read from a ProtonBuffer instance.

  • Method Details

    • newDecoderState

      DecoderState newDecoderState()
      Creates a new DecoderState instance that can be used when interacting with the Decoder. For decoding that occurs on more than one thread while sharing a single Decoder instance a different state object per thread is required as the DecoderState object can retain some state information during the decode process that could be corrupted if more than one thread were to share a single instance. For single threaded decoding work the Decoder offers a utility cached DecoderState API that will return the same instance on each call which can reduce allocation overhead and make using the Decoder simpler.
      Returns:
      a newly constructed EncoderState instance.

    • getCachedDecoderState

      DecoderState getCachedDecoderState()
      Return a singleton DecoderState instance that is meant to be shared within single threaded decoder interactions. If more than one thread makes use of this cached DecoderState the results of any decoding done using this state object is not guaranteed to be correct. The returned instance will have its reset method called to ensure that any previously stored state data is cleared before the next use.
      Returns:
      a cached DecoderState linked to this Decoder instance that has been reset.

    • readBoolean

      Reads from the given ProtonBuffer instance and returns a TypeDecoder that can read the next encoded AMQP type from the buffer's bytes. If an error occurs attempting to read and determine the next type decoder an DecodeException is thrown.
      Parameters:
      buffer - The buffer to read from to determine the next TypeDecoder needed.
      state - The DecoderState value that can be used for intermediate decoding tasks.
      Returns:
      a TypeDecoder instance that can read the next type in the buffer.

      Peeks ahead in the given ProtonBuffer instance and returns a TypeDecoder that can read the next encoded AMQP type from the buffer's bytes. If an error occurs attempting to read and determine the next type decoder an DecodeException is thrown. The underlying buffer is not modified as a result of the peek operation and the returned TypeDecoder will fail to properly read the type until the encoding bytes are read.
      Parameters:
      buffer - The buffer to read from to determine the next TypeDecoder needed.
      state - The DecoderState value that can be used for intermediate decoding tasks.
      Returns:
      a TypeDecoder instance that can provide insight into the next type in the buffer.
      Throws:
      DecodeException - if an error occurs while peeking ahead for the next type decoder.
