Enclosing interface:

Session

public abstract static class Session.InputCallback
extends java.lang.Object

The internal class to managing asynchronous user input. This class supports three types of input: open text (PROMPT), one-letter options (CHOOSE), and Y/N (CONFIRM).

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
abstract void	callBack()	This method is called if the user hits ENTER, and their input data is valid (one of the choices for CHOOSE or CONFIRM), or anything else for PROMPT.
boolean	isTimedOut()	Returns true if a timeout was given, and this class has been active longer than that amount of time.
Session.InputCallback	reset()	This method allows reuse of a given InputCallback.
void	setInput(java.lang.String input)	Forces user-input into this class, potentially changing its user input waiting state.
abstract void	showPrompt()	This method is called by InputCallback before user input is requested.
abstract void	timedOut()	This method is call by InputCallback if a timeout value greater than 0 is given and that amount of time has been exceeded.
boolean	waitForInput()	Returns true if this class is currently waiting for user input.

Constructor Detail

InputCallback

public InputCallback(Session.InputCallback.Type type,
                     java.lang.String defaultInput,
                     java.lang.String choicesStr,
                     long timeoutMs)

Full constructor. Receives the Type of processing, a default input for when the user just hits ENTER, a list of one-character choices (if CHOOSE Type is used) and an amount of time, in ms, for the user to be given before timeout and the timedOut() method is called.

Parameters:

type - the type of processing

defaultInput - default input value

choicesStr - list of one-character options (if CHOOSE Type)

timeoutMs - time, in ms, before the user is kicked

InputCallback

public InputCallback(Session.InputCallback.Type type,
                     java.lang.String defaultInput,
                     long timeoutMs)

Constructor. Receives the Type of processing, a default input for when the user just hits ENTER, and an amount of time, in ms, for the user to be given before timeout and the timedOut() method is called.

Parameters:

type - the type of processing

defaultInput - default input value

timeoutMs - time, in ms, before the user is kicked

InputCallback

public InputCallback(Session.InputCallback.Type type,
                     long timeoutMs)

Constructor. Receives the Type of processing, and an amount of time, in ms, for the user to be given before timeout and the timedOut() method is called.

Parameters:

type - the type of processing

timeoutMs - time, in ms, before the user is kicked

InputCallback

public InputCallback(Session.InputCallback.Type type)

Constructor. Receives the Type of processing.

Parameters:

type - the type of processing

InputCallback

public InputCallback(Session.InputCallback.Type type,
                     java.lang.String defaultInput)

Constructor. Receives the Type of processing, a default input for when the user just hits ENTER.

Parameters:

type - the type of processing

defaultInput - default input value

Method Detail

isTimedOut

public boolean isTimedOut()

Returns true if a timeout was given, and this class has been active longer than that amount of time.

Returns:

true if timed out, false otherwise.

setInput

public void setInput(java.lang.String input)

Forces user-input into this class, potentially changing its user input waiting state. If the input is invalid for CONFIRM or CHOOSE, then this will call ShowPrompt and go back to waiting. Otherwise, waiting is set to false and it becomes very likely that callBack() will be called.

Parameters:

input - the user input to force

waitForInput

public boolean waitForInput()

Returns true if this class is currently waiting for user input.

Returns:

true if waiting, false if waiting is over.

reset

public Session.InputCallback reset()

This method allows reuse of a given InputCallback. It will re-start the timeout period, and flag the callback for requiring more input.

Returns:

this

showPrompt

public abstract void showPrompt()

This method is called by InputCallback before user input is requested. If a CHOOSE or CONFIRM type is used, and the user enters something unrecognized, then this method is called again before more input.

timedOut

public abstract void timedOut()

This method is call by InputCallback if a timeout value greater than 0 is given and that amount of time has been exceeded.

callBack

public abstract void callBack()

This method is called if the user hits ENTER, and their input data is valid (one of the choices for CHOOSE or CONFIRM), or anything else for PROMPT. If the user has entered nothing, and a default value has been given, the default value is returned. The user entry is available to this method in this.input variable.
