Interface InitializableFiber

All Superinterfaces:

Fiber

All Known Subinterfaces:

EventReceiver

All Known Implementing Classes:

TcpEventReceiver, UdpEventReceiver

public interface InitializableFiber

extends Fiber

This class is used to extend the Fiber interface so that is has a concept of a life cycle. Prior to starting the fiber the init method will be invoked. Likewise, prior to garbage collection the destroy method should be invoked.

Method Detail

init

public void init()

This method is used to start the initilization process of the Fiber, which should eventually transition to a RUNNING status.
