Non blocking IO in jdk1.2??

hi All,
I would like to know what all non blocking IO operations are available to me in jdk1.2.2 which I can use in URLConnection. Would really appreciate help from all you people :)
Thanks in advance,
Rishi

Fluffy is correct but there are work arounds.
There are two methods available() for InputStream and ready() for Reader
The first one returns you an integer - if 0, then there are no bytes to read.
The second returns a boolean - if false, there is nothing to read.

Non blocking sockets

Hi All,
Anybody have some idea about how to implement non blocking sockets using two threads/Can u help me with some sites where i can get more information in this topic.
Regards
Priya

hi,
you could have a look at the nonblocking io (nio) api's present in jdk1.4, that should do the trick. this link ought to get u started i suppose..

hope this helps.

Non-Blocking Multicast Sockets in JDK 1.4?

Hi,
I've been trying to create non-blocking multicast sockets in JDK1.4, which essentially seems (at this stage) to boil down to the simpler problem of creating a DatagramChannel that uses MulticastSockets, or at least DatagramSockets that can join a Multicast group. Not having found any obvious way to do it, I created this extraordinary hack:
package java.net; // Wicked, wicked!
import java.io.*;
public class MyDatagramSocket {
public static void join(java.net.DatagramSocket socket, InetAddress addr)
throws IOExceptio DatagramSocket ds = new DatagramSocket(port);
ds.setReuseAddress(true);
MyDatagramSocket.join(ds, InetAddress.getByName("224.0.0.104"));
DatagramPacket dp = new DatagramPacket(array, 5000);
ds.receive(dp);          /* READS FINE */
n
socket.impl.join(addr); // Uses knowledge of DatagramSocket culled from examining source to access DatagramSocketImpl
Now I compile this, and drop the class file into my rt.jar files (in the JDK and the JRE), so that I can use MyDatagramSocket.join (DatagramSocket, InetAddress), which looks like it should work from code like this:
try {
int port = 58501;
DatagramChannel dc = DatagramChannel.open();
dc.socket().setReuseAddress(true);
dc.socket().bind(new InetSocketAddress(port));
MyDatagramSocket.join(dc.socket(), InetAddress.getByName("224.0.0.104"));
byte [] array = new byte[5000];
ByteBuffer bb = ByteBuffer.wrap(array);
dc.receive(bb);
System.out.println("Read from dc");
} catch (Exception x) {
x.printStackTrace();
But it doesn't work - it just doesn't read. A simpler example is this:
DatagramSocket ds = new DatagramSocket(port);
ds.setReuseAddress(true);
MyDatagramSocket.join(ds, InetAddress.getByName("224.0.0.104"));
DatagramPacket dp = new DatagramPacket(array, 5000);
ds.receive(dp);          /* READS FINE */
So I know that my hack is working, but this fails:
DatagramChannel dc = DatagramChannel.open();
dc.socket().bind(new InetSocketAddress(port));
dc.socket().setReuseAddress(true);
MyDatagramSocket.join(dc.socket(), InetAddress.getByName("224.0.0.104"));
DatagramPacket dp = new DatagramPacket(array, 5000);
dc.socket().receive(dp);     /* NEVER READS */
I've reduced the problem to one of the difference between a java.net.DatagramSocket - the standard DatagramSocket, and a sun.nio.ch.DatagramSocketAdaptor, which is what DatagramChannels seem to use.
My questions are:
a) Is there a proper way to do this, without my adding my own classes to java.net?
b) If NO is the answer to a), any ideas what I'm doing wrong in my code?
Many thanks for any assistance,
Craig

I've encountered the same problem in my code. The datagramChannel never receives incoming data. Doesn't matter the rate at which you send it or anything else. I don't see any way around this problem at the moment. If i find something i'll post it. Interesting enough, my friend who programs with C++ got non-blocking I/O with datagrams to work in windows. So this might just be java.

NIO Non-Blocking Server not Reading from Key

I have created a NIO non blocking server (below) and it will not pick up any input from the client.... My log doesnt even show that it enters the readKey() method, so it must be something before. Any help would be appreciated.

From my own expierence with the NIO (Under Windows XP/ jdk1.4.1_01); you can't seem to set READ and WRITE at the same time.
The program flow I usually end up with for a echo server is:
When the selector.isAcceptable(): accept a connection; register for READs
In the read event; write the incoming characters to a buffer; register for a WRITE and add the buffer as an attachment.
In the write event; write the data to the socket If all the data was written; register for a READ; otherwise register for another WRITE so that you can write the rest.
Not sure if that the "proper" way; but it works well for me.

Non-blocking socket concurrent limitation?

I have 2 socket program,one is server side used nio package with JDK1.4.1,the other is client used traditional socket,the client will initialize about 50
threads trying to connect with server when starting,but only about 15
can be accepted,these 2 program are runnning in the same computer which
OS is win2000 professional PC.

I have found the reason!!!
because of system resource limitation,windows can't afford to maintain
so many concurrent stream-IO,so some socket will be closed.
I modified the client side code,adding thes segments to client instantialize
such as :
public Client( String host, int port, int numThreads ) {
for(int i =0;i<1000;i++){
new Thread(this).start();
try {
Thread.currentThread().sleep(100);//give system some idle
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
/* ignore */
then the server can accept more than 1000 client request concurrently.

JDK 1.4 nio non-blocking connects don't finish

I am working with the Linux version of JDK1.4, doing some testing of the
non-blocking capability. The few tests that I have done have shown some
strange results:
- When opening a non-blocking connection to a server which has an
announcement banner, say such as POP which gives something like:
+OK pop3 server ready
then connection seems to be OK and proceed through to completion.
- When opening a non-blocking connection to a server which is silent, and
expects me to start the conversation, such as contacting an HTTP server,
then the Selector.select() never returns to allow me to finish the
connection.
Below is a test program which illustrates the problem for me.
It attempts to open a non-blocking connection to www.yahoo.com on port 80.
It then drops into a Selector.select() where I am waiting for the chance to
catch the SelectionKey.OP_CONNECT event and finish connecting, and then send
a simple HTTP GET request down the wire. That OP_CONNECT event
never seems to arrive though, and I remain stuck in the select().
'netstat -na' shows that I am in a connection established state.
Any insight appreciated,

Just for the benefit of anyone who might be seeing the same problem, it looks like bug 4457776 accurately describes the problem that I was having above.
I am downloading j2sdk-1_4_0-beta2-linux-i386-rpm.bin to see if that fixed it.

SQL Developer blocking vs non-blocking

Hi,
Is there a way in SQL Developer 3.0 to have a non-blocking SQL call? In Oracle Forms we can choose between blocking and non-blocking SQL Net connections to the database. Does SQL Developer have the same capability? If so where exactly are those options hidden in the preferences menus?
Annoyed,
ScottK
Edited by: ScottK on Jun 1, 2011 11:20 AM

Hi ScottK,
SQLDeveloper locks access to individual connections when they are in use, if you want to simulate
some aspects of non blocking behaviour you can use other connections.
The following features might help:
Use a different connection name back to the same schema in your database - it will be treated as an independent connection and 'blocking' on this connection will not affect your other connections.
This can be achieved temporarily in the worksheet by:
ctrl shift n
which creates a worksheet with new connection independent of your existing worksheet connection
though connected to the same schema and database.

ORA-03118 two-task error while doing a non blocking OCI call

Hi,
I have an application that runs on Linux and uses OCI API (version 8.1.6).
If I do the following in non blocking mode after polling about
70 times I get the error:
ORA-03118: two-task coroutine has invalid state
do {
call_cnt++;
rtc = OCIStmtFetch(stmtptr->stmt, oracle_err, 1, OCI_FETCH_NEXT,
OCI_DEFAULT);
} while (rtc == OCI_STILL_EXECUTING);
This doesn't happen all the time but it happens most often on big selects.
Does anyone have any idea what is happening here?
I have searched for related information but have come up dry. If anyone
knows anything or maybe a better place to ask this question please tell me.
Thanks,

What is the difference between non-blocking and 1:1 oversubscribed?

Could someone tell me what the difference is between a non-blocked port and one with 1:1 oversubscription?

"non-blocking port" and "1:1 oversubscription" are the same. It's also the same when you are saying "line rate".

Implementing non-blocking read

Hi all
I have some doubts about implementing non-blocking io in my application.
I am using Jsch library (an ssh implementation) to open an ssh connection with a host. The API only provides me with methods to open a connection and retreive the input & output streams. I want to make my read on inputstream non-blocking.In such a case is it possible to use nio for the purpose?
If it's not possible then I am planning to use threading to make read() non-blocking. Here also i need some clarifications. I am planning to use a ThreadPoolExecutor to create a thread pool for reading data. SO whenever i have a read i'll assign this task to the pool which will use one of the free threads to execute the inputStresm.read().
Now the question is if one of the threads in this pool blocks forever during a read since it didn't get any response from the other side, is there a way to stop that read and make that thread free again to execute more tasks? or will the thread block forever till the application is closed?
In my case i cannot afford to have too many such blocked threads, since this application will not be restarted very often. Once it is started it can go on for may be days or months.
Please suggest what would be best in my case taking into account performance as most important factor.
Thanks in advance.

First of all, let me state that I agree with the others in saying that I don't fully agree with your premises.
That said, I believe that this does a non-blocking read based on the contract of InputStream.available() and .read(byte[], int, int):
private int nonBlockingRead(InputStream in, byte[] buffer) throws IOException {
return in.read(buffer, 0, Math.min(in.available(), buffer.length));
If the InputStream is obtained from a JSSE socket then it is my understanding that available() always returns zero. This is allowed under the InputStream.available() contract as defined in the Javadoc - http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/io/InputStream.html#available() . If I am right then your code will never read anything from a JSSE socket InputStream and I would suspect that Jsch is using JSSE sockets.

Application Builder: Can you create non-blocking, return-immediately functions in a dll?

I need to include a procedure in a dll that is non-blocking, i.e. it should return immediately after the procedure has been called, and not return after its processes are completed.
The procedure is a LabView 7.0 VI, and the dll is being created using the Application Builder. Currently the procedure completes its desired task and then returns, but I would like the function to return immediately. Thanks for your help!

Rischaard,
I don't know if that will work in a dll, however as an idea:
use the vi-server functions:
Your dll-procedure opens a OwnTreat.vi(wich will do the work) with vi-server, and run it without waiting for completion.
First thing OwnTreat.vi should do is opening (with vi-server) a reference to itself (So your caller dll can close without stopping the OwnTreat.vi)
Then OwnTreat.vi con do what YOU want. When finished close the self-reference
Maybe you need a short wait or a feedback to make sure that OwnTreat has opened his own reverence before your dll stops.

Non-blocking and terminating processes

Using OCIBindDynamic with non-blocking connections

I need to use an OCI array interface for execute statements more than once per one request to server.
When I have called stored procedure or function in the non-blocking connection context using OCIBindDynamic for parameter binding, application have been crashed at random time.
I don't have any problems using default (blocking) mode.
Environment:
Oracle 8.1.7 release 3 for Windows
MS Visual C++ 6.0 compiler
Could anybody help me ?

It's always possible in any read that the number of bytes read is less than the number of bytes requested. You need to keep reading until you have got everything you expected, and cope with every possible error condition on each iteration.

NIO: Strange problem when using ByteBuffer with non-blocking SocketChannel

Hi,
I have a server that uses multiplexed, non-blocking I/O with java.nio. When a client connects, the server waits for the message: <system cmd="knock"/>, returns a message and disconnects the client. The clients are shortly serviced in less than a second.
But the server newer receive anything from about 20% of the clients - even though it is sent. Or with other words: it is received and the data is contained in the ByteBuffer - SocketChannel.read(ByteBuffer) - but a call to ByteBuffer.remaing() returns 0 !!
ByteBuffer receiveBuf = ByteBuffer.allocate(65536);
receiveBuf.clear(); // the code is elsewhere used for longer living clients
int readBytes = channel.read(receiveBuf);
receiveBuf.flip();
StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer();
System.out.println(" * Remaining: "+receiveBuf.remaining()); // writes: ' * Remaining: 0'
System.out.println(" * Received: "+new String(receiveBuf.array())); // writes: ' * Received: <system cmd="knock"/>'
while(receiveBuf.remaining() >= 2) {
byte b = receiveBuf.get();
sb.append((char)b);
System.out.println(" * sb content: "+sb.toString()); // writes: ' * sb content: 'The ByteBuffer clearly receives the correct data, but the ByteBuffer.remaining() returns 0 and therefore the StringBuffer will never have any content.
The problem seems to occur randomly and for about 20% of the clients (simulated from the same computer and therefore has the same bandwidth and so on).
Anyone knows what is going on, and how to solve the problem !?

SELECT of OCILobLocator in Non Blocking mode

Hi all.
I have problem:
I try select BLOB field into OCILobLocator* buffer in Non Blocking mode, and receive 'ORA-03106: fatal two-task communication protocol error' sometimes.
Details:
Application contains two threads : 1. select blob field, 2. update it.
I tried separate update and select to different apps (and run its in one time) - problem reproduced.
problem reproduced for OCIStmtFetch and OCIStmtFetch2.
If disable non blocking mode - problem disappear.
if error appear - record level error code contains 1405. Need wait few minutes for error message appearing (~1 minute in my case).
Using of OCI_DEFAULT in OCIDefineByPos instead OCI_DYNAMIC_FETCH don't solve problem.
I use oracle server and client library with version 10.2.0.4
Output sample:
execute_select(): can't make OCIStmtFetch2: status = -1, message = 'ORA-03106: fatal two-task communication protocol error
', error code = 3106, row errors: #877: 1405
execute_select(): can't make OCIStmtFetch2: status = -1, message = 'ORA-03106: fatal two-task communication protocol error
', error code = 3106, row errors: #54: 1405
execute_select(): can't make OCIStmtFetch2: status = -1, message = 'ORA-03106: fatal two-task communication protocol error

Hi all.
I have problem:
I try select BLOB field into OCILobLocator* buffer in Non Blocking mode, and receive 'ORA-03106: fatal two-task communication protocol error' sometimes.
Details:
Application contains two threads : 1. select blob field, 2. update it.
I tried separate update and select to different apps (and run its in one time) - problem reproduced.
problem reproduced for OCIStmtFetch and OCIStmtFetch2.
If disable non blocking mode - problem disappear.
if error appear - record level error code contains 1405. Need wait few minutes for error message appearing (~1 minute in my case).
Using of OCI_DEFAULT in OCIDefineByPos instead OCI_DYNAMIC_FETCH don't solve problem.
I use oracle server and client library with version 10.2.0.4
Output sample:
execute_select(): can't make OCIStmtFetch2: status = -1, message = 'ORA-03106: fatal two-task communication protocol error
', error code = 3106, row errors: #877: 1405
execute_select(): can't make OCIStmtFetch2: status = -1, message = 'ORA-03106: fatal two-task communication protocol error
', error code = 3106, row errors: #54: 1405
execute_select(): can't make OCIStmtFetch2: status = -1, message = 'ORA-03106: fatal two-task communication protocol error
', error code = 3106, row errors: #877: 1405
execute_select(): can't make OCIStmtFetch2: status = -1, message = 'ORA-03106: fatal two-task communication protocol error
', error code = 3106, row errors: #54: 1405
Can anybody help me ?
m.b. exists workaround ?
