Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
default void	flush() Flush the acceptor (required by some implementations - default is a no-operation).
R	getResult() Get the result of the acceptor.
boolean	isClosed() Return true if the pipeline is closed.
default boolean	isComplete() Return true if all sequences in the input are complete, that is, the input is not in the middle of a sequence requiring more data.

close

Method Detail

isClosed

boolean isClosed()

Return true if the pipeline is closed.

Returns:

true if the pipeline is closed

getResult

R getResult()

Get the result of the acceptor.

Returns:

the result

isComplete

default boolean isComplete()

Return true if all sequences in the input are complete, that is, the input is not in the middle of a sequence requiring more data. This should be overridden by acceptors that process complex sequences of input.

Returns:

true if the input is in the "complete" state

flush

default void flush()

Flush the acceptor (required by some implementations - default is a no-operation).
