Interface EventExecutor

All Superinterfaces:

EventExecutorGroup, Executor, ExecutorService, Iterable<EventExecutor>, ScheduledExecutorService

All Known Subinterfaces:

EventLoop, OrderedEventExecutor

All Known Implementing Classes:

AbstractEventExecutor, AbstractEventLoop, AbstractScheduledEventExecutor, DefaultEventExecutor, DefaultEventLoop, GlobalEventExecutor, ImmediateEventExecutor, NioEventLoop, SingleThreadEventExecutor, SingleThreadEventLoop, ThreadPerChannelEventLoop, UnorderedThreadPoolEventExecutor

public interface EventExecutor
extends EventExecutorGroup

The EventExecutor is a special EventExecutorGroup which comes with some handy methods to see if a Thread is executed in a event loop. Besides this, it also extends the EventExecutorGroup to allow for a generic way to access methods.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
boolean	inEventLoop() Calls inEventLoop(Thread) with Thread.currentThread() as argument
boolean	inEventLoop(Thread thread) Return true if the given Thread is executed in the event loop, false otherwise.
<V> Future<V>	newFailedFuture(Throwable cause) Create a new Future which is marked as failed already.
<V> ProgressivePromise<V>	newProgressivePromise() Create a new ProgressivePromise.
<V> Promise<V>	newPromise() Return a new Promise.
<V> Future<V>	newSucceededFuture(V result) Create a new Future which is marked as succeeded already.
EventExecutor	next() Returns a reference to itself.
EventExecutorGroup	parent() Return the EventExecutorGroup which is the parent of this EventExecutor,

Method Detail

next

EventExecutor next()

Returns a reference to itself.

Specified by:

next in interface EventExecutorGroup

parent

EventExecutorGroup parent()

Return the EventExecutorGroup which is the parent of this EventExecutor,

inEventLoop

boolean inEventLoop()

Calls inEventLoop(Thread) with Thread.currentThread() as argument

inEventLoop

boolean inEventLoop(Thread thread)

Return true if the given Thread is executed in the event loop, false otherwise.

newPromise

<V> Promise<V> newPromise()

Return a new Promise.

newProgressivePromise

<V> ProgressivePromise<V> newProgressivePromise()

Create a new ProgressivePromise.

newSucceededFuture

<V> Future<V> newSucceededFuture(V result)

Create a new Future which is marked as succeeded already. So Future.isSuccess() will return true. All FutureListener added to it will be notified directly. Also every call of blocking methods will just return without blocking.

newFailedFuture

<V> Future<V> newFailedFuture(Throwable cause)

Create a new Future which is marked as failed already. So Future.isSuccess() will return false. All FutureListener added to it will be notified directly. Also every call of blocking methods will just return without blocking.
