Method Detail

handleRequest

void handleRequest(P requestPacket,
                   C connection,
                   RequestPacketResponse<R> response)

Handles the RequestPacket which was send by a specific RemoteConnection. A proper response Packet should be answered with.

Throwing a ChannelException during the execution of this handler will automatically be applied to the RequestPacketResponse.

Every handled request should apply the proper response to RequestPacketResponse. Responding doesn't have to be instantly and can be from a concurrent context, but it shouldn't take minutes.

Parameters:

requestPacket - The received request packet

connection - The connection that sent the packet

response - The response which should be completed
