/**

* A handler for consuming notifications from the SCTP stack.
|
|
29 |
*
|
|
30 |
* <P> The SCTP channels defined in this package allow a notification handler to
|
|
31 |
* be specified to consume notifications from the SCTP stack. When a
|
|
32 |
* notification is received the {@linkplain #handleNotification
|
|
33 |
* handleNotification} method of the handler is invoked to handle that
|
|
34 |
* notification.
|
|
35 |
*
|
|
36 |
* <P> Additionally, an attachment object can be attached to the {@code receive}
|
|
37 |
* operation to provide context when consuming the notification. The
|
|
38 |
* attachment is important for cases where a <i>state-less</i> {@code
|
|
39 |
* NotificationHandler} is used to consume the result of many {@code receive}
|
|
40 |
* operations.
|
|
41 |
*
|
|
42 |
* <P> Handler implementations are encouraged to extend the {@link
|
|
43 |
* AbstractNotificationHandler} class which implements this interface and
|
|
44 |
* provide notification specific methods. However, an API should generally use
|
|
45 |
* this handler interface as the type for parameters, return type, etc. rather
|
|
46 |
* than the abstract class.
|
|
47 |
*
|
|
48 |
* @param T The type of the object attached to the receive operation
|
|
49 |
*
|
