I am learning Java nio selector. In my understanding, I thought the steps using selector is to firstly I register the my interest operations and then I can check the ready set and finally I can do the operations corresponding my interest operations. I don't know why in this code the writing process can happen in the block of if (key.isReadable()){...}
but not if (key.isWritable){...}
and why writing operation is not registered?
Iterator keys = sel.selectedKeys().iterator();
while (keys.hasNext()) {
SelectionKey key = (SelectionKey)keys.next();
if (!key.isValid())
continue;
if (key.isAcceptable()) {
// increase the counter
connection++;
// remove accept request
keys.remove();
// ACCEPT: get the server channel
ServerSocketChannel ssc =
(ServerSocketChannel) key.channel();
// init a socket for a client
SocketChannel nsc = ssc.accept();
nsc.configureBlocking(false);
// register the socket for READ
nsc.register(sel, SelectionKey.OP_READ);
}
}
while (count < COUNT_MAX + NUM_CHILD - 1) {
sel.select();
// Get all pending events and iterate
Iterator keys = sel.selectedKeys().iterator();
while ( keys.hasNext() ) {
SelectionKey key = (SelectionKey)keys.next();
keys.remove();
if (!key.isValid())
continue;
if (key.isReadable()) {
// READ: get the channel
SocketChannel nsc = (SocketChannel) key.channel();
// clear buffer for reading
readBuffer.clear();
int nBytes = nsc.read(readBuffer);
if (nBytes == -1) {// Check if the client closed the socket
key.channel().close();
key.cancel();
continue;
}
// Read a message
DataInputStream ist = new DataInputStream (
new ByteArrayInputStream(readBuffer.array()));
String msg = ist.readUTF();
System.out.print(msg + "\n");
// Clear the write buffer
writeBuffer.clear();
// Write the counter value on the buffer
count++;
if (count < COUNT_MAX)
writeBuffer.putInt(count);
else
writeBuffer.putInt(-1);
// flip the buffer and write on the channel
writeBuffer.flip();
// Reply to a client
nsc.write(writeBuffer);
}
} // while (key)
You don't need to register interest in OP_WRITE
because usually the channel is ready for writing. However a WritableChannel , if in non blocking mode, might not succeed in writing all content of the given ByteBuffer
. See here in its java docs:
Some types of channels, depending upon their state, may write only some of the bytes or possibly none at all. A socket channel in non-blocking mode, for example, cannot write any more bytes than are free in the socket's output buffer.
In this case you need to register the interest for OP_WRITE
on the selector to be notified when the channel is once again ready for writing, so you can finish writing your ByteBuffer
.
