  • Method Details

    • addContextListener

      void addContextListener(ContextListener listener)
      Adds a context listener to the server. The listener will be informed about context insertion and removal.
      Parameters:
      listener - a ContextListener instance to be informed about context changes.

    • removeContextListener

      void removeContextListener(ContextListener listener)
      Removes a previously added context listener.
      Parameters:
      listener - a ContextListener instance.

    • addContext

      void addContext(org.snmp4j.smi.OctetString context)
      Adds the supplied context to the server. The server however may silently ignore the request if local constraints do not allow to add the context (although this should be an exception case only).
      Parameters:
      context - an OctetString representing the context name to add.

    • removeContext

      void removeContext(org.snmp4j.smi.OctetString context)
      Removes a context from the server. Removing a context does not remove any managed objects from the server's registry.
      Parameters:
      context - n OctetString representing the context name to remove.

    • register

      void register(ManagedObject mo, org.snmp4j.smi.OctetString context) throws DuplicateRegistrationException
      Registers a managed object for the specified context. A managed object can be registered for more than one context.
      Parameters:
      mo - a ManagedObject instance.
      context - the context name for which to register the mo or null if the managed oject is to be registered for all contexts (including the default context).
      Throws:
      DuplicateRegistrationException - if the registration conflicts (i.e. overlaps) with an already existing registration.

    • unregister

      ManagedObject unregister(ManagedObject mo, org.snmp4j.smi.OctetString context)
      Removes the registration of the supplied managed object for the specified context.
      Parameters:
      mo - a ManagedObject instance.
      context - the context name for which to unregister the mo or null if the managed object is to be unregistered for all contexts (including the default context). In the latter case however, explicit registrations for a particular context will not be removed!
      Returns:
      the removed ManagedObjectinstance or null if the removal failed.

    • addLookupListener

      void addLookupListener(MOServerLookupListener listener, ManagedObject mo)
      Adds a managed object lookup listener for the supplied managed object to this managed object server. A MOServerLookupListener is called before the managed object is returned by lookup(MOQuery query).
      Parameters:
      listener - a MOServerLookupListener instance, for example a managed object that needs to update its state whenever it has been looked up
      mo - the ManagedObject that triggers the MOServerLookupEvent to be fired when it has been looked up.

    • removeLookupListener

      boolean removeLookupListener(MOServerLookupListener listener, ManagedObject mo)
      Removes a managed object lookup listener for the specified managed object.
      Parameters:
      listener - a MOServerLookupListener instance.
      mo - the ManagedObject that triggered the MOServerLookupEvent to be fired when it has been looked up.
      Returns:
      true if the listener could be removed or false if such a listener is not registered.

    • lookup

      ManagedObject lookup(MOQuery query)
      Lookup the first (lexicographically ordered) managed object that matches the supplied query. No locking will be performed, regardless of the set MOLockStrategy.
      Parameters:
      query - a MOQuery instance.
      Returns:
      the ManagedObject that matches the query and null if no such object exists.

    • lookup

      ManagedObject lookup(MOQuery query, LockRequest lockRequest)
      Lookup the first (lexicographically ordered) managed object that matches the supplied query. Locking will be performed according to the set MOLockStrategy before the lookup listener is fired. CAUTION: To make sure that the acquired lock is released after the using of the managed object has been finished, the unlock(Object, ManagedObject) method must be called then.
      Parameters:
      query - a MOQuery instance.
      lockRequest - the LockRequest that holds the lock owner and the timeout for acquiring a lock and returns whether a lock has been acquired or not on behalf of this lookup operation.
      Returns:
      the ManagedObject that matches the query and null if no such object exists.
      Since:
      2.4.0

    • iterator

      Iterator<Map.Entry<MOScope,ManagedObject>> iterator()
      Return a read-only Iterator over the content of this server. The iterator is thread safe and can be used while the server is being modified. The remove operation of the iterator is not supported.
      Returns:
      the Iterator on the Map.Entry instances managed by this server. Each Entry consists of an MOScope key instance and a corresponding ManagedObject value instance. If the ManagedObject has been registered for a specific context, then a MOContextScope is returned as key, otherwise the managed objects own MOScope is returned.

    • lock

      boolean lock(Object owner, ManagedObject managedObject)
      Locks a ManagedObject by the supplied owner. Once a ManagedObject is locked, a lookup attempt will block until it is unlocked or a predefined timeout occurs.
      Parameters:
      owner - an Object.
      managedObject - the ManagedObject to lock.
      Returns:
      true if the lock could be acquired, false otherwise, i.e. if an InterruptedException has occurred.

    • lock

      boolean lock(Object owner, ManagedObject managedObject, long timeoutMillis)
      Locks a ManagedObject by the supplied owner. Once a ManagedObject is locked, a lookup attempt will block until it is unlocked or a predefined timeout occurs.
      Parameters:
      owner - an Object.
      managedObject - the ManagedObject to lock.
      timeoutMillis - the number of 1/1000 seconds to wait for the lock. 0 or less disables the timeout and waits forever until the lock is released by the current owner.
      Returns:
      true if the lock could be acquired, false otherwise, i.e. if an InterruptedException or timeout has occurred.
      Since:
      1.3

    • unlock

      boolean unlock(Object owner, ManagedObject managedObject)
      Unlocks a ManagedObject that has been locked by the specified owner. If the ManagedObject is currently locked by another owner this method returns silently.

      Note: In debug log mode a message is locked if the lock owner does not match the current lock owner.

      Parameters:
      owner - an Object.
      managedObject - the ManagedObject to unlock. If managedObject is null then this call has no effect.
      Returns:
      true if the lock has been found and released successfully, false otherwise.

    • getContexts

      org.snmp4j.smi.OctetString[] getContexts()
      Returns the contexts known by the server.
      Returns:
      an array of context names.

    • isContextSupported

      boolean isContextSupported(org.snmp4j.smi.OctetString context)
      Checks whether the supplied context is supported (registered) by this server.
      Parameters:
      context - a context name.
      Returns:
      true if the context is support (thus has previously added by addContext(org.snmp4j.smi.OctetString)) and false otherwise.

    • getRegisteredContexts

      org.snmp4j.smi.OctetString[] getRegisteredContexts(ManagedObject managedObject)
      Returns the contexts for which the supplied ManagedObject has been registered.
      Parameters:
      managedObject - a ManagedObject instance.
      Returns:
      an array of context strings, for which managedObject has been registered. If the managedObject has been registered for all contexts, a null element is included in the array.
      Since:
