/**
 * An injectable JAX-RS asynchronous response that provides means for asynchronous server side
 * response processing.
 * 

* A new instance of {@code AsyncResponse} may be injected into a * {@link javax.ws.rs.HttpMethod resource or sub-resource method} parameter using * the {@link Suspended @Suspend} annotation. *

* Each asynchronous response instance is bound to the running request and can be used to * asynchronously provide the request processing result or otherwise manipulate the suspended * client connection. The available operations include: *
    *
  • updating suspended state data (time-out value, response ...)
  • *
  • resuming the suspended request processing
  • *
  • canceling the suspended request processing
  • *
*

*

* Following example demonstrates the use of the {@code AsyncResponse} for asynchronous * HTTP request processing: *

*
 * @Path("/messages/next")
 * public class MessagingResource {
 *     private static final BlockingQueue<AsyncResponse> suspended =
 *             new ArrayBlockingQueue<AsyncResponse>(5);
 *
 *     @GET
 *     public void readMessage(@Suspended AsyncResponse ar) throws InterruptedException {
 *         suspended.put(ar);
 *     }
 *
 *     @POST
 *     public String postMessage(final String message) throws InterruptedException {
 *         final AsyncResponse ar = suspended.take();
 *         ar.resume(message); // resumes the processing of one GET request
 *         return "Message sent";
 *     }
 * }
 * 
*

* If the asynchronous response was suspended with a positive timeout value, and has * not been explicitly resumed before the timeout has expired, the processing * will be resumed once the specified timeout threshold is reached, provided a positive * timeout value was set on the response. *

*

* By default a timed-out asynchronous response is resumed with a {@link javax.ws.rs.WebApplicationException} * that has {@link javax.ws.rs.core.Response.Status#SERVICE_UNAVAILABLE HTTP 503 (Service unavailable)} * error response status code set. This default behavior may be overridden by * {@link AsyncResponse#setTimeoutHandler(TimeoutHandler) setting} a custom {@link TimeoutHandler time-out handler}. *

* * @author Marek Potociar * @since 2.0 */ public interface AsyncResponse { /** * Constant specifying no suspend timeout value. */ public static final long NO_TIMEOUT = 0; /** * Resume the suspended request processing using the provided response data. * * The provided response data can be of any Java type that can be * returned from a {@link javax.ws.rs.HttpMethod JAX-RS resource method}. *
