LoopbackPeer

public LoopbackPeer()

Method Detail

toPeerToken

public PeerToken toPeerToken()

Return a copy of this object translated to a client side token.

Specified by:

toPeerToken in interface PBPeer

Returns:

a PI PeerToken

fromPeerToken

public PBPeer fromPeerToken(PeerToken token)

Return a reference to a peer implementation, translated from a client side token. This must return an identical instance to the one that created the token; this implies a registry of peers and some sort of reference counting, or at least a way to reconstruct the peer from the token.

Specified by:

fromPeerToken in interface PBPeer

Returns:

a PI PeerToken

compareTo

public int compareTo(java.lang.Object other)

Returns zero if the other network is the same as this network.

Specified by:

compareTo in interface java.lang.Comparable

Parameters:

other - network to compare

Returns:

a positive or negative integer, or zero

equals

public boolean equals(java.lang.Object other)

Indicates whether some other object is "equal to" this peer.

Overrides:

equals in class java.lang.Object

Parameters:

other - object to compare

Returns:

true if equal

createNewPeer

protected static LoopbackPeer createNewPeer()

Create a new peer.

Returns:

the new peer

isLocal

protected boolean isLocal()

Return the peer id.

Returns:

peer id

getPeerId

protected java.lang.String getPeerId()

Return the peer id.

Returns:

peer id

setPeerId

protected void setPeerId(java.lang.String id)

Set the id for this peer.

Parameters:

id - the peer id

getNextPeerId

protected static java.lang.String getNextPeerId()

Return an Id for the next created peer.

Returns:

The Instance value
