Class XdrBytes

java.lang.Object

org.acplt.oncrpc.XdrBytes

All Implemented Interfaces:

XdrAble

public class XdrBytes
extends Object
implements XdrAble

Instances of the class XdrBytes represent (de-)serializeable bytes values, which are especially useful in cases where a result with only a single bytes value is expected from a remote function call or only a single bytes value 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.

Parameters:

value - bytes vector

XdrBytes

public XdrBytes()

Constructs and initializes a new XdrBytes object.

Method Detail

bytesValue

public byte[] bytesValue()

Returns the value of this XdrBytes object as a byte vector.

Returns:

The primitive byte[] value of this object.

xdrEncode

public void xdrEncode(XdrEncodingStream xdr)
               throws OncRpcException,
                      IOException

Encodes -- that is: serializes -- a XDR bytes value 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.

IOException - if an I/O error occurs.

xdrDecode

public void xdrDecode(XdrDecodingStream xdr)
               throws OncRpcException,
                      IOException

Decodes -- that is: deserializes -- a XDR bytes value 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.

IOException - if an I/O error occurs.
