Hi All,
Thanks for such a great product in MINA. I have been working extensively with
0.8 and I am very close to finishing a server with a semi-complex protocol.
This server is destined for production and I am releived that I have
encountered very few problems (really none) regarding MINA. A good
understanding of the MINA code base is necessary when working with some of the
more advanced features.
My problem:
I am using both DemuxingProtocolCodecFactory and DemuxingProtocolHandler to
good effect (thank you!). What I would like to do is to define a default
decoder for inbound messages, to handle inappropriate message types, allowing
processig of these types to fit nicely into the design (maybe I am just missing
it). I am currently extending DemuxingProtocolCodecFactory and registering my
codecs there, I have a decoder and handler for each 'valid' inbound msg type
which I want to handle. Any suggestions for registering a default msg type
decoder. I looked into overriding
public class DemuxingProtocolCodecFactory implements ProtocolCodecFactory
{
private class ProtocolDecoderImpl extends CumulativeProtocolDecoder
{
protected boolean doDecode( ProtocolSession session, ByteBuffer in,
ProtocolDecoderOutput out) throws
ProtocolViolationException
{}
}
}
...but, ProtocolDecoderImpl is private, and this seems to the wrong way to
accomplish the task.
Although I have gotten my feet pretty wet, I am still a newbie with MINA. I
would appreciate any suggestions for my problem.
Having a great time working with MINA (except for my deadline, which would have
been impossible to make without MINA).
Regards.
Colin
