Package org.apache.ignite.spi.communication

Interface CommunicationSpi<T extends Serializable>

All Superinterfaces:

IgniteSpi

All Known Implementing Classes:

org.apache.ignite.spi.communication.tcp.internal.TcpCommunicationConfigInitializer, TcpCommunicationSpi

public interface CommunicationSpi<T extends Serializable>
extends IgniteSpi

Communication SPI is responsible for data exchange between nodes.

Communication SPI is one of the most important SPI in Ignite. It is used heavily throughout the system and provides means for all data exchanges between nodes, such as internal implementation details and user driven messages.

Functionality to this SPI is exposed directly in Ignite interface:

• IgniteMessaging.send(Object, Object)
• IgniteMessaging.send(Object, Collection)

Ignite comes with built-in communication SPI implementations:

• TcpCommunicationSpi

NOTE: this SPI (i.e. methods in this interface) should never be used directly. SPIs provide internal view on the subsystem and is used internally by Ignite kernal. In rare use cases when access to a specific implementation of this SPI is required - an instance of this SPI can be obtained via Ignite.configuration() method to check its configuration properties or call other non-SPI methods. Note again that calling methods from this interface on the obtained instance can lead to undefined behavior and explicitly not supported.

Method Detail

sendMessage

void sendMessage(ClusterNode destNode,
                 T msg)
          throws IgniteSpiException

Sends given message to destination node. Note that characteristics of the exchange such as durability, guaranteed delivery or error notification is dependant on SPI implementation.

Parameters:

destNode - Destination node.

msg - Message to send.

Throws:

IgniteSpiException - Thrown in case of any error during sending the message. Note that this is not guaranteed that failed communication will result in thrown exception as this is dependant on SPI implementation.

getSentMessagesCount

int getSentMessagesCount()

Gets sent messages count.

Returns:

Sent messages count.

getSentBytesCount

long getSentBytesCount()

Gets sent bytes count.

Returns:

Sent bytes count.

getReceivedMessagesCount

int getReceivedMessagesCount()

Gets received messages count.

Returns:

Received messages count.

getReceivedBytesCount

long getReceivedBytesCount()

Gets received bytes count.

Returns:

Received bytes count.

getOutboundMessagesQueueSize

int getOutboundMessagesQueueSize()

Gets outbound messages queue size.

Returns:

Outbound messages queue size.

resetMetrics

void resetMetrics()

Resets metrics for this SPI instance.

setListener

void setListener(@Nullable
                 @Nullable CommunicationListener<T> lsnr)

Set communication listener.

Parameters:

lsnr - Listener to set or null to unset the listener.
