Interface RegistryListener

All Known Implementing Classes:
DefaultRegistryListener

public interface RegistryListener

Notification of discovered device additions, removals, updates.

Add an instance of this interface to the registry to be notified when a device is discovered on your UPnP network, or when it is updated, or when it disappears.

Implementations will be called concurrently by several threads, they should be thread-safe.

Listener methods are called in a separate thread, so you can execute expensive procedures without spawning a new thread. The beforeShutdown(Registry) and afterShutdown() methods are however called in the thread that is stopping the registry and should not be blocking, unless you want to delay the shutdown procedure.

Method Detail

remoteDeviceDiscoveryStarted

void remoteDeviceDiscoveryStarted(Registry registry,
                                  RemoteDevice device)
Called as soon as possible after a device has been discovered.

This method will be called after SSDP notification datagrams of a new alive UPnP device have been received and processed. The announced device XML descriptor will be retrieved and parsed. The given RemoteDevice metadata is validated and partial Service metadata is available. The services are unhydrated, they have no actions or state variable metadata because the service descriptors of the device model have not been retrieved at this point.

You typically do not use this method on a regular machine, this is an optimization for slower UPnP hosts (such as Android handsets).

Parameters:
registry - The Cling registry of all devices and services know to the local UPnP stack.
device - A validated and hydrated device metadata graph, with anemic service metadata.

remoteDeviceDiscoveryFailed

void remoteDeviceDiscoveryFailed(Registry registry,
                                 RemoteDevice device,
                                 Exception ex)
Called when service metadata couldn't be initialized.

If you override the remoteDeviceDiscoveryStarted(Registry, org.teleal.cling.model.meta.RemoteDevice) method, you might want to override this method as well.

Parameters:
registry - The Cling registry of all devices and services know to the local UPnP stack.
device - A validated and hydrated device metadata graph, with anemic service metadata.
ex - The reason why service metadata could not be initialized, or null if service descriptors couldn't be retrieved at all.

remoteDeviceAdded

void remoteDeviceAdded(Registry registry,
                       RemoteDevice device)
Called when complete metadata of a newly discovered device is available.

Parameters:
registry - The Cling registry of all devices and services know to the local UPnP stack.
device - A validated and hydrated device metadata graph, with complete service metadata.

remoteDeviceUpdated

void remoteDeviceUpdated(Registry registry,
                         RemoteDevice device)
Called when a discovered device's expiration timestamp is updated.

This is a signal that a device is still alive and you typically don't have to react to this event. You will be notified when a device disappears through timeout.

Parameters:
registry - The Cling registry of all devices and services know to the local UPnP stack.
device - A validated and hydrated device metadata graph, with complete service metadata.

remoteDeviceRemoved

void remoteDeviceRemoved(Registry registry,
                         RemoteDevice device)
Called when a previously discovered device disappears.

This method will also be called when a discovered device did not update its expiration timeout and has been been removed automatically by the local registry. This method will not be called when the UPnP stack is shutting down.

Parameters:
registry - The Cling registry of all devices and services know to the local UPnP stack.
device - A validated and hydrated device metadata graph, with complete service metadata.

localDeviceAdded

void localDeviceAdded(Registry registry,
                      LocalDevice device)
Called after you add your own device to the Registry.

Parameters:
registry - The Cling registry of all devices and services know to the local UPnP stack.
device - The local device added to the Registry.

localDeviceRemoved

void localDeviceRemoved(Registry registry,
                        LocalDevice device)
Called after you remove your own device from the Registry.

This method will not be called when the UPnP stack is shutting down.

Parameters:
registry - The Cling registry of all devices and services know to the local UPnP stack.
device - The local device removed from the Registry.

beforeShutdown

void beforeShutdown(Registry registry)
Called after registry maintenance stops but before the registry is cleared.

This method should typically not block, it executes in the thread that shuts down the UPnP stack.

Parameters:
registry - The Cling registry of all devices and services know to the local UPnP stack.

afterShutdown

void afterShutdown()
Called after the registry has been cleared on shutdown.

This method should typically not block, it executes in the thread that shuts down the UPnP stack.
