Method Detail

createConnector

Connector createConnector(Map<String,Object> configuration,
                          BufferHandler handler,
                          ConnectionLifeCycleListener listener,
                          Executor closeExecutor,
                          Executor threadPool,
                          ScheduledExecutorService scheduledThreadPool)

creates a new instance of a connector.

Parameters:

configuration - the configuration

handler - the handler

listener - the listener

closeExecutor - the close executor

threadPool - the thread pool

scheduledThreadPool - the scheduled thread pool

Returns:

a new connector

getAllowableProperties

Set<String> getAllowableProperties()

Returns the allowable properties for this connector.

This will differ between different connector implementations.

Returns:

the allowable properties.

isReliable

boolean isReliable()

Indicates if connectors from this factory are reliable or not. If a connector is reliable then connection monitoring (i.e. pings/pongs) will be disabled.

Returns:

whether or not connectors from this factory are reliable
