Class Response

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    Cloneable, RoResponse

    public final class Response
    extends Object
    implements RoResponse, Cloneable
    This class represents an intermediate response. It's used internally by the modules. When all modules have handled the response then the HTTPResponse fills in its fields with the data from this class.

        public Response​(String version,
                        int status,
                        String reason,
                        NVPair[] headers,
                        byte[] data,
                        InputStream is,
                        int cont_len)
        Create a new response with the given info. This is used when creating a response in a requestHandler().

        If data is not null then that is used; else if the is is not null that is used; else the entity is empty. If the input stream is used then cont_len specifies the length of the data that can be read from it, or -1 if unknown.

        Parameters:
        version - the response version (such as "HTTP/1.1")
        status - the status code
        reason - the reason line
        headers - the response headers
        data - the response entity
        is - the response entity as an InputStream
        cont_len - the length of the data in the InputStream

                              String value)
        Set a header field in the list of headers. If the header already exists it will be overwritten; otherwise the header will be added to the list. This is used by some modules when they process the header so that higher level stuff doesn't get confused when the headers and data don't match.
        Parameters:
        header - The name of header field to set.
        value - The value to set the field to.
      • deleteHeader

        Parameters:
        header - The name of header field to remove.

        public void setTrailer​(String trailer,
                               String value)
        Set a trailer field in the list of trailers. If the trailer already exists it will be overwritten; otherwise the trailer will be added to the list. This is used by some modules when they process the trailer so that higher level stuff doesn't get confused when the trailer and data don't match.

        Removes a trailer field from the list of trailers. This is used by some modules when they process the trailer so that higher level stuff doesn't get confused when the trailers and data don't match.
        Parameters:
        trailer - The name of trailer field to remove.
      • getData

        public byte[] getData()
                       throws IOException
        Reads all the response data into a byte array. Note that this method won't return until all the data has been received (so for instance don't invoke this method if the server is doing a server push). If getInputStream() had been previously called then this method only returns any unread data remaining on the stream and then closes it.
        Specified by:
        getData in interface RoResponse
        Returns:
        an array containing the data (body) returned. If no data was returned then it's set to a zero-length array.
        Throws:
        IOException - If any io exception occured while reading the data
        See Also:
        getInputStream()
      • getInputStream

        public InputStream getInputStream()
                                   throws IOException
        Gets an input stream from which the returned data can be read. Note that if getData() had been previously called it will actually return a ByteArrayInputStream created from that data.
        Specified by:
        getInputStream in interface RoResponse
        Returns:
        the InputStream.
        Throws:
        IOException - If any exception occurs on the socket.
        See Also:
        getData()
      • hasEntity

        public boolean hasEntity()
                          throws IOException
        Some responses such as those from a HEAD or with certain status codes don't have an entity. This is detected by the client and can be queried here. Note that this won't try to do a read() on the input stream (it will however cause the headers to be read and parsed if not already done).
        Returns:
        true if the response has an entity, false otherwise
        Throws:
        IOException
        Since:
        V0.3-1
      • setRetryRequest

        public void setRetryRequest​(boolean flag)
        Should the request be retried by the application? This can be used by modules to signal to the application that it should retry the request. It's used when the request used an HttpOutputStream and the module is therefore not able to retry the request itself. This flag is false by default.

        If a module sets this flag then it must also reset() the the HttpOutputStream so it may be reused by the application. It should then also use this HttpOutputStream to recognize the retried request in the requestHandler().

        Parameters:
        flag - indicates whether the application should retry the request.
      • retryRequest

        public boolean retryRequest()
        Returns:
        true if the request should be retried.
      • clone

        public Object clone()
        Overrides:
        clone in class Object
        Returns:
        a clone of this request object
