Method Detail

• getContainer

  WebSocketContainer getContainer()

  Return the container that this session is part of.

  Returns:

  the container.

• addMessageHandler

  void addMessageHandler(MessageHandler handler)
                  throws java.lang.IllegalStateException

  Register to handle to incoming messages in this conversation. A maximum of one message handler per native websocket message type (text, binary, pong) may be added to each Session. I.e. a maximum of one message handler to handle incoming text messages a maximum of one message handler for handling incoming binary messages, and a maximum of one for handling incoming pong messages. For further details of which message handlers handle which of the native websocket message types please see MessageHandler.Whole and MessageHandler.Partial. Adding more than one of any one type will result in a runtime exception.

  This method is not safe to use unless you are providing an anonymous class derived directly from MessageHandler.Whole or MessageHandler.Partial. In all other cases (Lambda Expressions, more complex inheritance or generic type arrangements), one of the following methods have to be used: addMessageHandler(Class, jakarta.websocket.MessageHandler.Whole) or addMessageHandler(Class, jakarta.websocket.MessageHandler.Partial).

  Once the container has identified a MessageHandler for a message, the MessageHandler is used for the entirety of the message irrespective of any subsequent changes to the MessageHandlers configured for the Session.

  Parameters:

  handler - the MessageHandler to be added.

  Throws:

  java.lang.IllegalStateException - if there is already a MessageHandler registered for the same native websocket message type as this handler.

For further details of which message handlers handle which of the native websocket message types please see MessageHandler.Whole and MessageHandler.Partial.

  Return true if and only if the underlying socket is open.

  Returns:

  whether the session is active.

• getMaxIdleTimeout

  long getMaxIdleTimeout()

  Return the number of milliseconds before this session will be closed by the container if it is inactive, i.e. no messages are either sent or received in that time. A value that is zero or negative indicates that this timeout will not be used.

  Sets the maximum length of incoming binary messages that this Session can buffer.

  Parameters:

  length - the maximum length.

• getMaxBinaryMessageBufferSize

  int getMaxBinaryMessageBufferSize()

  The maximum length of incoming binary messages that this Session can buffer. If the implementation receives a binary message that it cannot buffer because it is too large, it must close the session with a close code of CloseReason.CloseCodes.TOO_BIG.

  Returns:

  the maximum binary message size that can be buffered.

• setMaxTextMessageBufferSize

  void setMaxTextMessageBufferSize(int length)

  Sets the maximum length of incoming text messages that this Session can buffer.

  Returns:

  the maximum text message size that can be buffered.

• getAsyncRemote

  RemoteEndpoint.Async getAsyncRemote()

  the remote endpoint.

• getBasicRemote

  RemoteEndpoint.Basic getBasicRemote()

  Return a reference a RemoteEndpoint object representing the peer of this conversation that is able to send messages synchronously to the peer.

  Returns:

  the remote endpoint.

• getId

  java.lang.String getId()

  Returns a string containing the unique identifier assigned to this session. The identifier is assigned by the web socket implementation and is implementation dependent.

  Returns:

  the unique identifier for this session instance.

• close

  void close()
      throws java.io.IOException

  Close the current conversation with a normal status code and no reason phrase.

  Specified by:

  close in interface java.lang.AutoCloseable

  Specified by:

  close in interface java.io.Closeable

  Throws:

  java.io.IOException - if there was a connection error closing the connection.

• close

  void close(CloseReason closeReason)
      throws java.io.IOException

  Close the current conversation, giving a reason for the closure. The close call causes the implementation to attempt notify the client of the close as soon as it can. This may cause the sending of unsent messages immediately prior to the close notification. After the close notification has been sent the implementation notifies the endpoint's onClose method. Note the websocket specification defines the acceptable uses of status codes and reason phrases. If the application cannot determine a suitable close code to use for the closeReason, it is recommended to use CloseReason.CloseCodes.NO_STATUS_CODE.

  Parameters:

  closeReason - the reason for the closure.

  Throws:

  java.io.IOException - if there was a connection error closing the connection

• getRequestURI

  java.net.URI getRequestURI()

  Return the complete URI under which this session was opened, from protocol to query string (if present). The URI should be identical to the complete URI used for the HTTP request that was upgraded to WebSocket apart from the protocol which should be changed to ws or wss as appropriate. It is the URI associated with the HTTP request that received the 101 Switching Protocols response that is used as the basis for this value - not an earlier, redirected request - if any.

  Returns:

  the request URI.

• getRequestParameterMap

  java.util.Map<java.lang.String,java.util.List<java.lang.String>> getRequestParameterMap()

  Return the request parameters associated with the request this session was opened under. The request parameters will have been part of the HTTP upgrade request which is limited by RFC 6455 to only use the HTTP GET method. Therefore, the parameters in the returned Map will be a representation of the parameters contained in the query string.

  Returns:

  the unmodifiable map of the request parameters.

• getQueryString

  java.lang.String getQueryString()

  Return the query string associated with the request this session was opened under.

  Returns:

  the query string

• getPathParameters

  java.util.Map<java.lang.String,java.lang.String> getPathParameters()

  Return a map of the path parameter names and values used associated with the request this session was opened under.

  Returns:

  the unmodifiable map of path parameters. The key of the map is the parameter name, the values in the map are the parameter values.

• getUserProperties

  java.util.Map<java.lang.String,java.lang.Object> getUserProperties()

  While the session is open, this method returns a Map that the developer may use to store application specific information relating to this session instance. The developer may retrieve information from this Map at any time between the opening of the session and during the onClose() method. But outside that time, any information stored using this Map may no longer be kept by the container. Web socket applications running on distributed implementations of the web container should make any application specific objects stored here java.io.Serializable, or the object may not be recreated after a failover.

  For server sessions, the initial contents of this Map must be a shallow copy of the user properties map returned from jakarta.websocket.server.ServerEndpointConfig#getUserProperties() at the point the jakarta.websocket.server.ServerEndpointConfig.Configurator#modifyHandshake() method exits.

  For client sessions, the initial contents of this Map must be a shallow copy of the user properties map returned from EndpointConfig.getUserProperties() for the ClientEndpointConfig passed to WebSocketContainer.connectToServer(Class, ClientEndpointConfig, URI) or WebSocketContainer.connectToServer(Endpoint, ClientEndpointConfig, URI).

  Returns:

  an editable Map of application data.

• getUserPrincipal

  java.security.Principal getUserPrincipal()

  Return the authenticated user for this Session or null if no user is authenticated for this session.

  Returns:

  the user principal.

• getOpenSessions

  java.util.Set<Session> getOpenSessions()

  Return a copy of the Set of all the open web socket sessions that represent connections to the same endpoint to which this session represents a connection. The Set includes the session this method is called on. These sessions may not still be open at any point after the return of this method. For example, iterating over the set at a later time may yield one or more closed sessions. Developers should use session.isOpen() to check.

  Returns:

  the set of sessions, open at the time of return.
