Member Function Documentation

getClientConnector()

ClientConnector getClientConnector

(

)

Retrieve client connector.

Returns

client connector instance.

getConnectionState()

ClientConnector.State getConnectionState

(

)

Returns the current connection state.

Returns

connection state enumeration value

getLogging()

boolean getLogging

(

)

Retrieve state of logging.

Returns

true if logging is enabled.

getUIThreadIntegrator()

UIThreadIntegrator getUIThreadIntegrator

(

)

Retrieve Android UI Thread integration functionality.

Returns

Instance of UI thread integration functionality.

initialize() [1/2]

boolean initialize

(

StringMap

connectionAttributes

)

Initialize the Connect context.

After successfull call it is possible to start the connector.

Parameters

connectionAttributes

connection information, specifies the server to connect

Returns

true if initialization started.

initialize() [2/2]

boolean initialize	(	StringMap	connectionAttributes,
		AbstractService	service )

Initialize the Connect context to run a remote service.

Parameters

connectionAttributes	connection information, specifies the server to connect
service	the service to run. can be null.

Returns

true if initialization started.

isConnected()

boolean isConnected

(

)

Returns the current connection status whether connection has been established.

For more detailed state information and receiving state change callbacks see ClientConnector class returned by getClientConnector() method.

Returns

true if currently connected.

setClientConnector()

void setClientConnector

(

ClientConnector

connector

)

Changes the client connector.

Parameters

connector

connector

setLogging()

void setLogging

(

boolean

enable

)

Enable/Disable logging.

By default logging is enabled.

Parameters

enable

new state for logging.

setUIThreadIntegrator()

void setUIThreadIntegrator

(

UIThreadIntegrator

integrator

)

Changes the UI thread integrator at runtime for example when new one is created.

Parameters

integrator

new integrator.

start()

boolean start

(

)

Starts connector operation.

Connector tries to maintain connection towards the configured server.

Should be called only from android applications UI thread.

Returns

true if successfully started.

stop()

void stop

(

)

Stops the connector operation, will cause possible connection to get disconnected.

Should be called only from android applications UI thread.

uninitialize()

void uninitialize

(

)

Cleanup the connector, will disconnect possible existing connections.

After calling this new initialization is required before it is possible to start again.
