Class Udp

  • public class Udp
extends java.lang.Object
    UDP Extension for Akka’s IO layer.

    This extension implements the connectionless UDP protocol without calling connect on the underlying sockets, i.e. without restricting from whom data can be received. For “connected” UDP mode see UdpConnected.

    For a full description of the design and philosophy behind this IO implementation please refer to the Akka online documentation.

    The Java API for generating UDP commands is available at UdpMessage.

    • Nested Class Summary

      Nested Classes 
      Modifier and Type Class Description
      static class  Udp.Bind
      Send this message to the UdpExt.manager() in order to bind to the given local port (or an automatically assigned one if the port number is zero).
      static class  Udp.Bind$  
      static class  Udp.Bound
      This message is sent by the listener actor in response to a Udp.Bind command.
      static class  Udp.Bound$  
      static interface  Udp.Command
      The common type of all commands supported by the UDP implementation.
      static class  Udp.CommandFailed
      When a command fails it will be replied to with this message type, wrapping the failing command object.
      static class  Udp.CommandFailed$  
      static interface  Udp.Event
      The common type of all events emitted by the UDP implementation.
      static interface  Udp.Message
      The common interface for Udp.Command and Udp.Event.
      static class  Udp.NoAck
      Each Udp.Send can optionally request a positive acknowledgment to be sent to the commanding actor.
      static class  Udp.NoAck$
      Default Udp.NoAck instance which is used when no acknowledgment information is explicitly provided.
      static class  Udp.Received
      When a listener actor receives a datagram from its socket it will send it to the handler designated in the Udp.Bind message using this message type.
      static class  Udp.Received$  
      static class  Udp.ResumeReading$
      This message must be sent to the listener actor to re-enable reading from the socket after a SuspendReading command.
      static class  Udp.Send
      This message is understood by the “simple sender” which can be obtained by sending the Udp.SimpleSender query to the UdpExt.manager() as well as by the listener actors which are created in response to Udp.Bind.
      static class  Udp.Send$  
      static class  Udp.SimpleSender
      Retrieve a reference to a “simple sender” actor of the UDP extension.
      static class  Udp.SimpleSender$  
      static interface  Udp.SimpleSenderReady
      The “simple sender” sends this message type in response to a Udp.SimpleSender query.
      static class  Udp.SimpleSenderReady$  
      static class  Udp.SO$
      Scala API: This object provides access to all socket options applicable to UDP sockets.
      static class  Udp.SuspendReading$
      Send this message to a listener actor (which sent a Udp.Bound message) to have it stop reading datagrams from the network.
      static class  Udp.Unbind$
      Send this message to the listener actor that previously sent a Udp.Bound message in order to close the listening socket.
      static interface  Udp.Unbound
      This message is sent by the listener actor in response to an Unbind command after the socket has been closed.
      static class  Udp.Unbound$
