Method Detail

available

boolean available()
           throws GuacamoleException

Returns whether instruction data is available for reading. Note that this does not guarantee an entire instruction is available. If a full instruction is not available, this function can return true, and a call to read() will still block.

Returns:

true if instruction data is available for reading, false otherwise.

Throws:

GuacamoleException - If an error occurs while checking for available data.

read

char[] read()
     throws GuacamoleException

Reads at least one complete Guacamole instruction, returning a buffer containing one or more complete Guacamole instructions and no incomplete Guacamole instructions. This function will block until at least one complete instruction is available.

Returns:

A buffer containing at least one complete Guacamole instruction, or null if no more instructions are available for reading.

Throws:

GuacamoleException - If an error occurs while reading from the stream.

readInstruction

GuacamoleInstruction readInstruction()
                              throws GuacamoleException

Reads exactly one complete Guacamole instruction and returns the fully parsed instruction.

Returns:

The next complete instruction from the stream, fully parsed, or null if no more instructions are available for reading.

Throws:

GuacamoleException - If an error occurs while reading from the stream, or if the instruction cannot be parsed.
