public interface Http2FlowController

Base interface for all HTTP/2 flow controllers.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
void	channelHandlerContext(ChannelHandlerContext ctx)	Set the ChannelHandlerContext for which to apply flow control on.
void	incrementWindowSize(Http2Stream stream, int delta)	Increments the size of the stream's flow control window by the given delta.
int	initialWindowSize()	Gets the connection-wide initial flow control window size that is used as the basis for new stream flow control windows.
void	initialWindowSize(int newWindowSize)	Sets the connection-wide initial flow control window and updates all stream windows (but not the connection stream window) by the delta.
int	windowSize(Http2Stream stream)	Get the portion of the flow control window for the given stream that is currently available for sending/receiving frames which are subject to flow control.

Method Detail

channelHandlerContext

void channelHandlerContext(ChannelHandlerContext ctx)
                    throws Http2Exception

Set the ChannelHandlerContext for which to apply flow control on.

This must be called to properly initialize the Http2FlowController. Not calling this is considered a programming error.

Parameters:

ctx - The ChannelHandlerContext for which to apply flow control on.

Throws:

Http2Exception - if any protocol-related error occurred.

initialWindowSize

void initialWindowSize(int newWindowSize)
                throws Http2Exception

Sets the connection-wide initial flow control window and updates all stream windows (but not the connection stream window) by the delta.

Represents the value for SETTINGS_INITIAL_WINDOW_SIZE. This method should only be called by Netty (not users) as a result of a receiving a SETTINGS frame.

Parameters:

newWindowSize - the new initial window size.

Throws:

Http2Exception - thrown if any protocol-related error occurred.

initialWindowSize

int initialWindowSize()

Gets the connection-wide initial flow control window size that is used as the basis for new stream flow control windows.

Represents the value for SETTINGS_INITIAL_WINDOW_SIZE. The initial value returned by this method must be Http2CodecUtil.DEFAULT_WINDOW_SIZE.

windowSize

int windowSize(Http2Stream stream)

Get the portion of the flow control window for the given stream that is currently available for sending/receiving frames which are subject to flow control. This quantity is measured in number of bytes.

incrementWindowSize

void incrementWindowSize(Http2Stream stream,
                         int delta)
                  throws Http2Exception

Increments the size of the stream's flow control window by the given delta.

In the case of a Http2RemoteFlowController this is called upon receipt of a WINDOW_UPDATE frame from the remote endpoint to mirror the changes to the window size.

For a Http2LocalFlowController this can be called to request the expansion of the window size published by this endpoint. It is up to the implementation, however, as to when a WINDOW_UPDATE is actually sent.

Parameters:

stream - The subject stream. Use Http2Connection.connectionStream() for requesting the size of the connection window.

delta - the change in size of the flow control window.

Throws:

Http2Exception - thrown if a protocol-related error occurred.
