public class JMSStreamMessage extends JMSMessage implements jakarta.jms.StreamMessage

A StreamMessage is used to send a stream of Java primitives. It is filled and read sequentially. It inherits from JMSMessage and adds a stream message body. Its methods are based largely on those found in java.io.DataInputStream and java.io.DataOutputStream.

The primitive types can be read or written explicitly using methods for each type. They can also be read or written generically as objects. For example, a call to StreamMessage.writeInt(6) is equivalent to StreamMessage.writeObject(new Integer(6)). Both forms are provided because the explicit form is convenient for static programming and the object form is needed when types are not known at compile time.

When the message is first created, and when clearBody() is called, the body of the message is in write-only mode. After the first call to the reset() method has been made, the message body is in read-only mode. When a message has been sent, the provider always calls the reset() method to read its content. Likewise, when a message has been received, the provider calls reset() so that the message body is in read-only mode for the client.

If clearBody() is called on a message in read-only mode, the message body is cleared and the message body is in write-only mode.

If a client attempts to read a message in write-only mode, a MessageNotReadableException is thrown.

If a client attempts to write a message in read-only mode, a MessageNotWriteableException is thrown.

Stream messages support the following conversion table. The marked cases are supported and the unmarked cases throw a JMSException. The String to primitive conversions throw a runtime exception if the primitives valueOf() method does not accept it as a valid String representation of the primitive.

A value written as the row type can be read as the column type.

boolean byte short char int long float double String byte[]
boolean X X
byte X X X X X
short X X X X
char X X
int X X X
long X X
float X X X
double X X
String X X X X X X X X
byte[] X

Attempting to read a null value as a Java primitive type is treated as calling the primitive's corresponding valueOf(String) conversion method with a null value. Because char does not support a String conversion, attempting to read a null value as a char throws a NullPointerException.

To create a stream message please call Session.createStreamMessage(). Do not call the default constructor.

  • Method Details

    • readBoolean

      public boolean readBoolean() throws jakarta.jms.JMSException
      Reads a boolean from the stream message.
      Specified by:
      readBoolean in interface jakarta.jms.StreamMessage
      Returns:
      the boolean value read
      Throws:
      jakarta.jms.JMSException - if JMS fails to read the message due to an internal JMS error
      jakarta.jms.MessageEOFException - if an end of message stream
      jakarta.jms.MessageFormatException - if this type conversion is not valid
      jakarta.jms.MessageNotReadableException - if the message is in write-only mode
    • readByte

      public byte readByte() throws jakarta.jms.JMSException
      Reads a byte value from the stream message.
      Specified by:
      readByte in interface jakarta.jms.StreamMessage
      Returns:
      the next byte from the stream message as a 8-bit byte
      Throws:
      jakarta.jms.JMSException - if JMS fails to read the message due to an internal JMS error
      jakarta.jms.MessageEOFException - if an end of message stream
      jakarta.jms.MessageFormatException - if this type conversion is not valid
      jakarta.jms.MessageNotReadableException - if the message is in write-only mode
    • readBytes

      public int readBytes(byte[] value) throws jakarta.jms.JMSException
      Reads a byte array field from the stream message into the specified byte[] object (the read buffer).

      To read the field value, readBytes() should be successively called until it returns a value less than the length of the read buffer. The values of the bytes in the buffer following the last byte read are undefined.

      If readBytes() returns a value equal to the length of the buffer, a subsequent readBytes() call must be made. If there are no more bytes to be read this call will return -1.

      If the bytes array field value is null, readBytes() returns -1.

      If the bytes array field value is empty, readBytes() returns 0.

      After the first readBytes() call on a byte[] field value has been made, the full value of the field must be read before the next field can be read. An attempt to read the next field before that has been done will throw a MessageFormatException.

      Specified by:
      readBytes in interface jakarta.jms.StreamMessage
      Parameters:
      value - the buffer into which the data is read
      Returns:
      the total number of bytes read into the buffer, or -1 if there is no more data because the end of the byte field has been reached
      Throws:
      jakarta.jms.JMSException - if JMS fails to read the message due to an internal JMS error
      jakarta.jms.MessageEOFException - if an end of message stream
      jakarta.jms.MessageFormatException - if this type conversion is not valid
      jakarta.jms.MessageNotReadableException - if the message is in write-only mode
