public interface HttpContent
extends HttpObject, ByteBufHolder

An HTTP chunk which is used for HTTP chunked transfer-encoding. HttpObjectDecoder generates HttpContent after HttpMessage when the content is large or the encoding of the content is 'chunked. If you prefer not to receive HttpContent in your handler, place HttpObjectAggregator after HttpObjectDecoder in the ChannelPipeline.

Method Detail

copy

HttpContent copy()

Description copied from interface: ByteBufHolder

Creates a deep copy of this ByteBufHolder.

Specified by:

copy in interface ByteBufHolder

duplicate

HttpContent duplicate()

Description copied from interface: ByteBufHolder

Duplicates this ByteBufHolder. Be aware that this will not automatically call ByteBufHolder.retain().

Specified by:

duplicate in interface ByteBufHolder

retainedDuplicate

HttpContent retainedDuplicate()

Description copied from interface: ByteBufHolder

Duplicates this ByteBufHolder. This method returns a retained duplicate unlike ByteBufHolder.duplicate().

Specified by:

retainedDuplicate in interface ByteBufHolder

touch

HttpContent touch()

Description copied from interface: ReferenceCounted

Records the current access location of this object for debugging purposes. If this object is determined to be leaked, the information recorded by this operation will be provided to you via ResourceLeakDetector. This method is a shortcut to touch(null).
