Class XdrByte

java.lang.Object
  org.acplt.oncrpc.XdrByte

All Implemented Interfaces:

XdrAble

public class XdrByte
extends java.lang.Object
implements XdrAble

Instances of the class XdrByte represent (de-)serializeable bytes, which are especially useful in cases where a result with only a single byte is expected from a remote function call or only a single byte parameter needs to be supplied.

Please note that this class is somewhat modelled after Java's primitive data type wrappers. As for these classes, the XDR data type wrapper classes follow the concept of values with no identity, so you are not allowed to change the value after you've created a value object.

Field Summary

private byte

value The encapsulated byte value itself.

Constructor Summary

XdrByte()
Constructs and initializes a new XdrByte object.

XdrByte(byte value)
Constructs and initializes a new XdrByte object.

Method Summary

byte	byteValue() Returns the value of this XdrByte object as a byte primitive.
void	xdrDecode(XdrDecodingStream xdr) Decodes -- that is: deserializes -- a XDR byte from a XDR stream in compliance to RFC 1832.
void	xdrEncode(XdrEncodingStream xdr) Encodes -- that is: serializes -- a XDR byte into a XDR stream in compliance to RFC 1832.

XdrByte

public XdrByte()

Constructs and initializes a new XdrByte object.

Method Detail

byteValue

public byte byteValue()

Returns the value of this XdrByte object as a byte primitive.

Returns:

The primitive byte value of this object.

xdrEncode

public void xdrEncode(XdrEncodingStream xdr)
               throws OncRpcException,
                      java.io.IOException

Encodes -- that is: serializes -- a XDR byte into a XDR stream in compliance to RFC 1832.

Specified by:

xdrEncode in interface XdrAble

Parameters:

xdr - XDR stream to which information is sent for encoding.

Throws:

OncRpcException - if an ONC/RPC error occurs.

java.io.IOException - if an I/O error occurs.

xdrDecode

public void xdrDecode(XdrDecodingStream xdr)
               throws OncRpcException,
                      java.io.IOException

Decodes -- that is: deserializes -- a XDR byte from a XDR stream in compliance to RFC 1832.

Specified by:

xdrDecode in interface XdrAble

Parameters:

xdr - XDR stream from which decoded information is retrieved.

Throws:

OncRpcException - if an ONC/RPC error occurs.

java.io.IOException - if an I/O error occurs.
