If create a new Client instance and attempt to - remove the callback listeners, a new session id will be passed to the - server invoker, who will not recognize the callback listener to be - removed.</para> + <section> + <title>Simple invocation</title> - <para>See test case - <code>org.jboss.test.remoting.callback.push.MultipleCallbackServersTestCase</code> - .</para> - </chapter> \ No newline at end of file + <para>The simple invocation sample (found in the + org.jboss.remoting.samples.simple package), has two classes; SimpleClient + and SimpleServer. It demonstrates making a simple invocation from a + remoting client to a remoting server. The SimpleClient class will create + an InvokerLocator object from a simple url-like string that identifies the + remoting server to call upon (which will be socket://localhost:5400 by + default). Then the SimpleClient will create a remoting Client class, + passing the newly created InvokerLocator. Next the Client will be called + to make an invocation on the remoting server, passing the request payload + object (which is a String with the value of "Do something"). The server + will return a response from this call which is printed to standard + output.</para> + + <para>Within the SimpleServer, a remoting server is created and started. + This is done by first creating an InvokerLocator, just like was done in + the SimpleClient. Then constructing a Connector, passing the + InvokerLocator. Next, need to call create() on the Connector to initialize + all the resources, such as the remoting server invoker. Once created, need + to create the invocation handler. The invocation handler is the class that + the remoting server will pass client requests on to. The invocation + handler in this sample simply returns the simple String "This is the + return to SampleInvocationHandler invocation". Once created, the handler + is added to the Connector. Finally, the Connector is started and will + start listening for incoming client requests.</para> + + <para>To run this example, can compile both the SimpleClient and + SimpleServer class, then first run the SimpleServer and then the + SimpleClient. Or can go to the examples directory and run the ant target + 'run-simple-server' and then in another console window run the ant target + 'run-simple-client'.

The other mode, which is demonstrated in the second call to + invokeOneway, allows for the calling thread to return immediately and a + worker thread on the client side will make the actual invocation on the + server.

However, in this example, instead of explicitly specifying the + invoker locator to use for the target remoting server, it is discovered + dynamically during runtime. This example is composed of two classes; + SimpleDetectorClient and SimpleDetectorServer.</para> + + <para>The SimpleDetectorClient starts off by setting up the remoting + detector. Detection on the client side requires a few components; a JMX + MBeanServer, one or more Detectors, and a NetworkRegistry. The Detectors + will listen for detection messages from remoting servers and then add the + information for the detected servers to the NetworkRegistry. They use JMX + to lookup and call on the NetworkRegistry. The NetworkRegistry uses JMX + Notifications to emit changes in network topology (remoting servers being + added or removed).</para> + + <para>In this particular example, the SimpleDetectorClient is registered + with the NetworkRegistry as a notification listener. When it receives + notifications from the NetworkRegistry (via the handleNotification() + method), it will check to see if the notification is for adding or + removing a remoting server. If it is for adding a remoting server, the + SimpleDetectorClient will get the array of InvokerLocators from the + NetworkNotification and make a remote call for each. If the notification + is for removing a remoting server, the SimpleDetectorClient will simply + print out a message saying which server has been removed.</para> + + <para>The biggest change between the SimpleDetectorServer and the + SimpleServer from the first sample is that have added a method, + setupDetector(), to create and start a remoting Detector. On the server + side, only two components are needed for detection; the Detector and a JMX + MBeanServer. As for the setup of the Connector, it is exactly the same as + before. Notice that even though we have added a Detector on the server + side, the Connector is not directly aware of either Detector or the + MBeanServer, so no code changes for the Connector setup is + required.</para> + + <para>To run this example, can compile both the SimpleDetectorClient and + SimpleDetectorServer class, then run the SimpleDetectorServer and then the + SimpleDetectorClient.

This example is + composed of two classes; CallbackClient and CallbackServer.</para> + + <para>Within remoting, there are two approaches in which a callback can be + received. The first is to actively ask for callback messages from the + remoting server, which is called a pull callback (since are pulling the + callbacks from the server). The second is to have the server send the + callbacks to the client as they are generated, which is called a push + callback. This sample demonstrates how to do both pull and push + callbacks.</para> + + <para>Looking at the CallbackClient class, will see that the first thing + done is to create a remoting Client, which is done in the same manner as + previous examples. Next, we'll perform a pull callback, which requires the + creation of a CallbackHandler. The CallbackHandler, which implements the + InvokerCallbackHandler interface, is what is called upon with a Callback + object when a callback is received. The Callback object contains + information such as the callback message (in Object form), the server + locator from where the callback originally came from, and a handle object + which can help to identify callback context (similar to the handle object + within a JMX Notification). Once created, the CallbackHandler is then + registered as a listener within the Client. This will cause the client to + make a call to the server to notify the server it has a callback listener + (more on this below in the server section). Although the CallbackHandler + is not called upon directly when doing pull callbacks, it is needed as an + identifier for the callbacks.</para> + + <para>Then the client will wait a few seconds, make a simple invocation on + the server, and then call on the remoting Client instance to get any + callbacks that may be available for our CallbackHandler. This will return + a list of callbacks, if any exist. The list will be iterated and each + callback will be printed to standard output. Finally, the callback handler + will be removed as a listener from the remoting Client (which in turns + removes it from the remoting server).</para> + + <para>After performing a pull callback, will perform a push callback. This + is a little more involved as requires creating a callback server to which + the remoting target server can callback on when it generates a callback + message. To do this, will need to create a remoting Connector, just as + have seen in previous examples. For this particular example, we use the + same locator url as our target remoting server, but increment the port to + listen on by one. Will also notice that use the SampleInvocationHandler + hander from the CallbackServer (more in this in a minute). After creating + our callback server, a CallbackHandler and callback handle object is + created. Next, remoting Client is called to add our callback listener. + Here we pass not only the CallbackHandler, but the InvokerLocator for the + callback server (so the target server will know where to deliver callback + messages to), and the callback handle object (which will be included in + all the callback messages delivered for this particular callback + listener).</para> + + <para>Then the client will wait a few seconds, to allow the target server + time to generate and deliver callback messages. After that, we remove the + callback listener and clean up our callback server.</para> + + <para>The CallbackServer is pretty much the same as the previous samples + in setting up the remoting server, via the Connector. The biggest change + resides in the ServerInvocationHandler implementation, + SampleInvocationHandler (which is an inner class to CallbackServer). The + first thing to notice is now have a variable called listeners, which is a + List to hold any callback listeners that get registered. Also, in the + constructor of the SampleInvocationHandler, we set up a new thread to run + in the background. This thread, executing the run() method in + SampleInvocationHandler, will continually loop looking to see if the + shouldGenerateCallbacks has been set. If it has been, will create a + Callback object and loop through its list of listeners and tell each + listener to handle the newly created callback. Have also added + implementation to the addListener() and removeListener() methods where + will either add or remove specified callback listener from the internal + callback listener list and set the shouldGenerateCallbacks flag + accordingly. The invoke() method remains the same as in previous + samples.</para> + + <para>To run this example, can compile both the CallbackClient and + CallbackServer class, then run the CallbackServer and then the + CallbackClient. Or can go to the examples directory and run the ant target + 'run-callback-server' and then in another window run the ant target + 'run-callback-client.

This is handled within remoting automatically. + Also notice when the callback server was created within the client, no + special coding was required to register the callback handler with it, both + were simply passed to the remoting Client instance when registering the + callback listener and was handled internally.</para> + </section> + + <section> + <title>Streaming</title> + + <para>The streaning sample (found in the org.jboss.remoting.samples.stream + package) illustrates how a java.io.InputStream can be sent from a client + and read on demand from a server. This example is composed of two classes: + StreamingClient and StreamingServer.</para> + + <para>Unlike the previous examples that sent plain old java objects as the + payload, this example will be sending a java.io.FileInputStream as the + payload to the server. This is a special case because streams can not be + serialized. One approach to this might be to write out the contents of a + stream to a byte buffer and send the whole data content to the server. + However, this approach can be dangerous because if the data content of the + stream is large, such as an 800MB file, would run the risk of causing an + out of memory error (since are loading all 800MB into memory). Another + approach, which is used by JBossRemoting, is to create a proxy to the + original stream. This proxy can then be called upon for reading, same as + the original stream. When this happens, the proxy will call back the + original stream for the requested data.</para> + + <para>Looking at the StreamingClient, the remoting Client is created as in + previous samples. Next, will create a java.io.FileInputStream to the + sample.txt file on disk (which is in the same directory as the test + classes). Finally, will call the remoting Client to do its invocation, + passing the new FileInputStream and the name of the file. The second + parameter could be of any Object type and is meant to supply some + meaningful context to the server in regards to the stream being passed, + such as the file name to use when writing to disk on the server side. The + response from the server, in this example, is the size of the file it + wrote to disk.</para> + + <para>The StreamingServer sets up the remoting server as was done in + previous examples. However, instead of using an implementation of the + ServerInvocationHandler class as the server handler, an implementation of + the StreamInvocationHandler (which extends the ServerInvocationHandler) is + used. The StreamInvocationHandler includes an extra method called + handleStream() especially for processing requests with a stream as the + payload. In this example, the class implementing the + StreamInvocationHandler is the TestStreamInvocationHandler class, which is + an inner class to the StreamingServer. The handleStream() method within + the TestStreamInvocationHandler will use the stream passed to it to write + out its contents to a file on disk, as specified by the second parameter + passed to the handleStream() method. Upon writing out the file to disk, + the handleStream() method will return to the client caller the size of the + file.</para> + + <para>To run this example, can compile both the StreamingClient and + StreamingServer class, then run the StreamingServer and then the + StreamingClient.

JBoss Remoting transporters + provide the same behavior via a simple API without the need for any of + the newer technologies.</para> + + <para>When boiled down, transporters take a plain old java object (POJO) + and expose a remote proxy to it via JBoss Remoting. Dynamic proxies and + reflection are used to make the typed method calls on that target POJO. + Since JBoss Remoting is used, can select from a number of different + network transports (i.e. rmi, http, socket, multiplex, etc.), including + support for SSL. Even clustering features can be included.</para> + + <bridgehead>How it works</bridgehead> + + <para>In this section will discuss how remoting transporters can be + used, some requirments for usage, and a little detail on the + implementation. For greater breath on usage, please review the + transporter samples as most use cases are covered there.</para> + + <para>To start, will need to have a plain old java object that + implements one or more interfaces that want to expose for remote method + invocation. Then will need to create a + <code>org.jboss.remoting.transporter.TransporterServer</code> to wrap + around it, so that can be exposed remotely. This can be done in one of + two basic ways. The first is to use a static + <code>createTransporterServer()</code> method of the TransporterServer + class. There are many of these create methods, but all basically do that + same thing in that they take a remoting locator and target pojo and will + return a TransporterServer instance that has been started and ready to + receive remote invocations (see javadoc for TransporterServer for all + the different static createTransporterServer() methods). The other way + to create a TransporterServer for the target pojo is to construct an + instance of it. This provides a little more flexibility as are able to + control more aspects of the TransporterServer, such as when it will be + started.</para> + + <para>When a TransporterServer is created, it will create a remoting + Connector using the locator provided. It will generate a server + invocation handler that wraps the target pojo provided and use + reflection to make the calls on it based on the invocations it receives + from clients. By default, the subsystem underwhich the server invocation + handler is registered is the interface class name for which the target + pojo is exposing. If the target implements multiple interfaces, and a + specific one to use is not specified, all the interfaces will be + registered as subsystems for the same server invocation handler. + Whenever no long want the target pojo to receive remote method + invocations, will need to call the <code>stop()</code> method on the + TransporterServer for the target pojo (this is very important, as + otherwise will never be released from memory and will continue to + consume network and memory resources).</para> + + <para>On the client side, in order to be able to call on the target pojo + remotely, will need to use the + <code>org.jboss.remoting.transporter.TransporterClient</code>. Unlike + the TransporterServer, can only use the static create methods of the + TransporterClient (this is because the return to the static create + method is a typed dynamic proxy). The static method to call on the + TransportClient is <code>createTransporterClient()</code>, where will + pass the locator to find the target pojo (same as one used when creating + the TransporterServer) and the interface for the target pojo that want + to make remote method invocations on. The return from this create call + will be a dynamic proxy which you can cast to to same interface type + supplied. At that point, can make typed method invocations on the + returned object, which will then make the remote invocations under the + covers. Note that can have multiple transporter clients to the same + target pojo, each using different interface types for making + calls.</para> + + <para>When no longer need to make invocations on the target pojo, the + resources associated with the remoting client will need to be cleaned + up. This is done by calling the <code>destroyTransporterClient()</code> + method of the TransporterClient. This is important to remember to do, as + will otherwise leave network resources active even though not in + use.</para> + + <para>One of the features of using remoting transporters is location + transparency. By this mean that client proxies returned by the + TransporterClient can be passed over the network. For example, can have + a target pojo that returns from a method call a client proxy (that it + created using the TransporterClient) in which the client can call on + directly as well. See the transporter proxy sample code to see how this + can be done.</para> + + <para>Another nice feature when using transporters is the ability to + cluster. To be more specific, can create multiple target pojos using the + TransporterServer in clustered mode and then use the TransporterClient + in clustered mode to create a client proxy that will discover the + location of the target pojos are wanting to call on. Will also provide + automatic, seemless failover of remote method invocations in the case + that a particular target pojo instance fails. However, note that only + provide invocation failover and does not take into account state + transfer between target pojos (would need addition of JBoss Cache or + some other state synchronization tool).</para> + </section> + + <para>The transporter sample spans several examples showing different ways + to use the transporter. Each specific example is within its own package + under the org.jboss.remoting.samples.transporter package. Since each of + the transporter examples includes common objects, as well as client and + server classes, the common objects will be found under the main + transporter sub-package and the client and server classes in their + respective sub-packages (named client and server).</para> + + <section> + <title>Transporters sample - simple</title> + + <para>The simple transporter example (found in + org.jboss.remoting.samples.transporter.simple package) demonstrates a + very simple example of how to use the transporters to expose a plain old + java object for remote method invocations.</para> + + <para>In this simple transporter example, will be taking a class that + formats a java.util.Date into a simple String representation and + exposing it so can call on the remotely.

The TransporterServer returned from the + createTransporterServer call is live and ready to receive incoming + method invocation requests. Will then wait 10 seconds for a request, + then stop the server.</para> + + <para>Next need to have client to make the remote invocation. This can + be found within + org.jboss.remoting.samples.transporter.simple.Client.</para> + + <programlisting>public class Client +{ + public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception + { + DateProcessor dateProcessor = (DateProcessor) TransporterClient.createTransporterClient("socket://localhost:5400", DateProcessor.class); + String formattedDate = dateProcessor.formatDate(new Date()); + System.out.println("Current date: " + formattedDate); + } +}</programlisting> + + <para>In the Client class, create a TransporterClient which can be cast + to the desired type, which is DataProcessor in this case.

Briefly, the difference - between the two virtual server socket classes is that a - <classname>MasterServerSocket</classname> is derived from - <classname>java.net.ServerSocket</classname> and its - <methodname>accept()</methodname> method is implemented by way of the - inherited method <methodname>super.accept()</methodname>. A - <classname>MasterServerSocket</classname> can accept connect requests - from multiple machines.

That is, a - master <classname>MultiplexServerInvoker</classname> can accept - requests from any host, while a virtual - <classname>MultiplexServerInvoker</classname> can accept requests only - from the particular host to which it has a multiplex connection. Since - a multiplex connection begins with a connection request to a - <classname>MasterServerSocket</classname>, it follows that the use of - the multiplex invoker must begin with a connection request from the - client (made by either a <classname>MultiplexClientInvoker</classname> - or a virtual <classname>MultiplexServerInvoker</classname>: see below) - to a master <classname>MultiplexServerInvoker</classname> on the - server.

Note, - the client's lease will be renewed on the server with any and every - invocation made on the server from the client, whether it be a normal - invocation or a ping from the client internally.</para> - - <para>The actual lease window established on the server side is dynamic - based the rate at which the client updates its lease. In particular, the - lease window will always be set to lease period * 2 for any lease that does - not have a lease update duration that is longer than 75% of the lease window - (meaning if set lease period to 10 seconds and always update that lease in - less then 7.5 seconds, the lease period will always remain 10 seconds). If the - update duration is greater than 75% of the lease window, the lease window will - be reset to the lease duration X 2 (meaning if set lease period to 10 seconds - and update that lease in 8 seconds, the new lease window will be set to 16 - seconds). Also, the lease will not immediately expire on the first lease - timeout (meaning did not get an update within the lease window). It takes two - consecutive timeouts before a lease will expire and a notification for client - connection failure is fired.

This - means if want to allow client to do leasing, will need to either set invoker - locator parameter of 'leasing' to true or include configuration entry with key - of 'enableLease' and value of true to the map passed when creating a Client - instance. This does not mean that client will lease for sure, but will - indicate the client should call on the server to see if the server has - activated leasing and get the leasing period desired by the server. If leasing - turned on within the client can also override the lease period it - will use, ignoring the one sent by the server, by setting 'lease_period' - parameter in the invoker locator parameters to millisecond value.

Also, the lease will not immediately expire on the + first lease timeout (meaning did not get an update within the lease window). + It takes two consecutive timeouts before a lease will expire and a + notification for client connection failure is fired.

It is possible to override the suggested lease + period by setting the parameter + <code>org.jboss.remoting.InvokerLocator.CLIENT_LEASE_PERIOD</code> (actual + value "lease_period") to a value greater than 0 and less than the value + suggested by the server. <emphasis role="bold">Note. </emphasis>If the + client and server are local, meaning running within the JVM, leasing (and + thus connection notification) will not be activated, even if is configured + to do so.</para> + + <para>If leasing is turned on within the client side, there is no API or + configuration changes needed, unless want to override as mentioned + previously.

Therefore, it is <emphasis + role="bold">IMPORTANT</emphasis> that disconnect is called on the client + when done using it.
