  • Method Details

    • addCredit

      Receiver addCredit(int credits) throws ClientException
      Adds credit to the Receiver link for use when there receiver has not been configured with a credit window. When credit window is configured credit replenishment is automatic and calling this method will result in an exception indicating that the operation is invalid.

      If the Receiver is draining and this method is called an exception will be thrown to indicate that credit cannot be replenished until the remote has drained the existing link credit.

      Parameters:
      credits - The number of credits to add to the Receiver link.
      Returns:
      this Receiver instance.
      Throws:
      ClientException - if an error occurs while attempting to add new Receiver link credit.

    • receive

      Delivery receive() throws ClientException
      Blocking receive method that waits forever for the remote to provide a Delivery for consumption.

      Receive calls will only grant credit on their own if a credit window is configured in the ReceiverOptions which is done by default. If the client application has configured no credit window than this method will not grant any credit when it enters the wait for new incoming messages.

      Returns:
      a new Delivery received from the remote.
      Throws:
      ClientException - if the Receiver or its parent is closed when the call to receive is made.

    • receive

      Delivery receive(long timeout, TimeUnit unit) throws ClientException
      Blocking receive method that waits the given time interval for the remote to provide a Delivery for consumption. The amount of time this method blocks is based on the timeout value. If the timeout is less than zero then it blocks until a Delivery is received. If the timeout is equal to zero then it will not block and simply return a Delivery if one is available locally. If the timeout value is greater than zero then it blocks up to timeout amount of time.

      Receive calls will only grant credit on their own if a credit window is configured in the ReceiverOptions which is done by default. If the client application has not configured a credit window or granted credit manually this method will not automatically grant any credit when it enters the wait for a new incoming Delivery.

      Parameters:
      timeout - The timeout value used to control how long the receive method waits for a new Delivery.
      unit - The unit of time that the given timeout represents.
      Returns:
      a new Delivery received from the remote.
      Throws:
      ClientException - if the Receiver or its parent is closed when the call to receive is made.

    • tryReceive

      Delivery tryReceive() throws ClientException
      Non-blocking receive method that either returns a message is one is immediately available or returns null if none is currently at hand.
      Returns:
      a new Delivery received from the remote or null if no pending deliveries are available.
      Throws:
      ClientException - if the Receiver or its parent is closed when the call to try to receive is made.

    • drain

      Future<Receiver> drain() throws ClientException
      Requests the remote to drain previously granted credit for this Receiver link.
      Returns:
      a Future that will be completed when the remote drains this Receiver link.
      Throws:
      ClientException - if an error occurs while attempting to drain the link credit.

    • queuedDeliveries

      long queuedDeliveries() throws ClientException
      Returns the number of Deliveries that are currently held in the Receiver delivery queue. This number is likely to change immediately following the call as more deliveries arrive but can be used to determine if any pending Delivery work is ready.
      Returns:
      the number of deliveries that are currently buffered locally.
      Throws:
      ClientException - if an error occurs while attempting to fetch the queue count.
