  Modifier and Type	Interface and Description
  static interface	Encoder.Binary<T> This interface defines how to provide a way to convert a custom object into a binary message.
  static interface	Encoder.BinaryStream<T> This interface may be implemented by encoding algorithms that want to write the encoded object to a binary stream.
  static interface	Encoder.Text<T> This interface defines how to provide a way to convert a custom object into a text message.
  static interface	Encoder.TextStream<T> This interface may be implemented by encoding algorithms that want to write the encoded object to a character stream.

  All Methods

  Modifier and Type	Method and Description
  void	destroy () This method is called when the encoder is about to be removed from service in order that any resources the encoder used may be closed gracefully.
  void	init (EndpointConfig config) This method is called with the endpoint configuration object of the endpoint this encoder is intended for when it is about to be brought into service.

• Method Detail

  • init

    void init(EndpointConfig config)

    This method is called with the endpoint configuration object of the endpoint this encoder is intended for when it is about to be brought into service.

    Parameters:

    config - the endpoint configuration object when being brought into service

  • destroy

    void destroy()

    This method is called when the encoder is about to be removed from service in order that any resources the encoder used may be closed gracefully.
