Class HTOTAL

java.lang.Object
org.jgroups.stack.Protocol
org.jgroups.protocols.HTOTAL

public class HTOTAL extends Protocol
Implementation of UTO-TCP as designed by EPFL. Implements chaining algorithm: each sender sends the message to a coordinator who then forwards it to its neighbor on the right, who then forwards it to its neighbor to the right etc.

This protocol has not yet been completed and is experimental at best !

  • Method Details

    • getName

      public final String getName()
      Specified by:
      getName in class Protocol
    • setProperties

      public boolean setProperties(Properties props)
      Description copied from class: Protocol
      Configures the protocol initially. A configuration string consists of name=value items, separated by a ';' (semicolon), e.g.:
       "loopback=false;unicast_inport=4444"
       
      Overrides:
      setProperties in class Protocol
    • down

      public Object down(Event evt)
      Description copied from class: Protocol
      An event is to be sent down the stack. The layer may want to examine its type and perform some action on it, depending on the event's type. If the event is a message MSG, then the layer may need to add a header to it (or do nothing at all) before sending it down the stack using down_prot.down(). In case of a GET_ADDRESS event (which tries to retrieve the stack's address from one of the bottom layers), the layer may need to send a new response event back up the stack using up_prot.up().
      Overrides:
      down in class Protocol
    • up

      public Object up(Event evt)
      Description copied from class: Protocol
      An event was received from the layer below. Usually the current layer will want to examine the event type and - depending on its type - perform some computation (e.g. removing headers from a MSG event type, or updating the internal membership list when receiving a VIEW_CHANGE event). Finally the event is either a) discarded, or b) an event is sent down the stack using down_prot.down() or c) the event (or another event) is sent up the stack using up_prot.up().
      Overrides:
      up in class Protocol
