/**
 * {@link ChannelInboundHandlerAdapter} which decodes bytes in a stream-like fashion from one {@link ByteBuf} to an
 * other Message type.
 *
 * For example here is an implementation which reads all readable bytes from
 * the input {@link ByteBuf} and create a new {@link ByteBuf}.
 *
 * 
 *     public class SquareDecoder extends {@link ByteToMessageDecoder} {
 *         {@code @Override}
 *         public void decode({@link ChannelHandlerContext} ctx, {@link ByteBuf} in, List<Object> out)
 *                 throws {@link Exception} {
 *             out.add(in.readBytes(in.readableBytes()));
 *         }
 *     }
 * 
* *

Frame detection

*

* Generally frame detection should be handled earlier in the pipeline by adding a * {@link DelimiterBasedFrameDecoder}, {@link FixedLengthFrameDecoder}, {@link LengthFieldBasedFrameDecoder}, * or {@link LineBasedFrameDecoder}. *

* If a custom frame decoder is required, then one needs to be careful when implementing * one with {@link ByteToMessageDecoder}. Ensure there are enough bytes in the buffer for a * complete frame by checking {@link ByteBuf#readableBytes()}. If there are not enough bytes * for a complete frame, return without modifying the reader index to allow more bytes to arrive. *

* To check for complete frames without modifying the reader index, use methods like {@link ByteBuf#getInt(int)}. * One MUST use the reader index when using methods like {@link ByteBuf#getInt(int)}. * For example calling in.getInt(0) is assuming the frame starts at the beginning of the buffer, which * is not always the case. Use in.getInt(in.readerIndex()) instead. *

Pitfalls

*

* Be aware that sub-classes of {@link ByteToMessageDecoder} MUST NOT * annotated with {@link @Sharable}. *

* Some methods such as {@link ByteBuf#readBytes(int)} will cause a memory leak if the returned buffer * is not released or added to the out {@link List}. Use derived buffers like {@link ByteBuf#readSlice(int)} * to avoid leaking memory. */ public abstract class ByteToMessageDecoder extends ChannelInboundHandlerAdapter { /** * Cumulate {@link ByteBuf}s by merge them into one {@link ByteBuf}'s, using memory copies. */ public static final Cumulator MERGE_CUMULATOR = new Cumulator() { @Override public ByteBuf cumulate(ByteBufAllocator alloc, ByteBuf cumulation, ByteBuf in) { try { final ByteBuf buffer; if (cumulation.writerIndex() > cumulation.maxCapacity() - in.readableBytes() || cumulation.refCnt() > 1 || cumulation.isReadOnly()) { // Expand cumulation (by replace it) when either there is not more room in the buffer // or if the refCnt is greater then 1 which may happen when the user use slice().retain() or // duplicate().retain() or if its read-only. // // See: // - https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/2327 // - https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/1764 buffer = expandCumulation(alloc, cumulation, in.readableBytes()); } else { buffer = cumulation; } buffer.writeBytes(in); return buffer; } finally { // We must release in in all cases as otherwise it may produce a leak if writeBytes(...) throw // for whatever release (for example because of OutOfMemoryError) in.release(); } } }; /** * Cumulate {@link ByteBuf}s by add them to a {@link CompositeByteBuf} and so do no memory copy whenever possible. * Be aware that {@link CompositeByteBuf} use a more complex indexing implementation so depending on your use-case * and the decoder implementation this may be slower then just use the {@link #MERGE_CUMULATOR}. */ public static final Cumulator COMPOSITE_CUMULATOR = new Cumulator() { @Override public ByteBuf cumulate(ByteBufAllocator alloc, ByteBuf cumulation, ByteBuf in) { ByteBuf buffer; try { if (cumulation.refCnt() > 1) { // Expand cumulation (by replace it) when the refCnt is greater then 1 which may happen when the // user use slice().retain() or duplicate().retain(). // // See: // - https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/2327 // - https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/1764 buffer = expandCumulation(alloc, cumulation, in.readableBytes()); buffer.writeBytes(in); } else { CompositeByteBuf composite; if (cumulation instanceof CompositeByteBuf) { composite = (CompositeByteBuf) cumulation; } else { composite = alloc.compositeBuffer(Integer.MAX_VALUE); composite.addComponent(true, cumulation); } composite.addComponent(true, in); in = null; buffer = composite; } return buffer; } finally { if (in != null) { // We must release if the ownership was not transferred as otherwise it may produce a leak if // writeBytes(...) throw for whatever release (for example because of OutOfMemoryError). in.release(); } } } }; private static final byte STATE_INIT = 0; private static final byte STATE_CALLING_CHILD_DECODE = 1; private static final byte STATE_HANDLER_REMOVED_PENDING = 2; ByteBuf cumulation; private Cumulator cumulator = MERGE_CUMULATOR; private boolean singleDecode; private boolean first; /** * This flag is used to determine if we need to call {@link ChannelHandlerContext#read()} to consume more data * when {@link ChannelConfig#isAutoRead()} is {@code false}. */ private boolean firedChannelRead; /** * A bitmask where the bits are defined as *
