Class NotificationResult

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    Serializable


    public class NotificationResult
    extends Object
    implements Serializable

    Result of a query for buffered notifications. Notifications in a notification buffer have positive, monotonically increasing sequence numbers. The result of a notification query contains the following elements:

    • The sequence number of the earliest notification still in the buffer.
    • The sequence number of the next notification available for querying. This will be the starting sequence number for the next notification query.
    • An array of (Notification,listenerID) pairs corresponding to the returned notifications and the listeners they correspond to.

    It is possible for the nextSequenceNumber to be less than the earliestSequenceNumber. This signifies that notifications between the two might have been lost.

    Since:
    1.5

        public NotificationResult​(long earliestSequenceNumber,
                                  long nextSequenceNumber,

        Constructs a notification query result.

        Parameters:
        earliestSequenceNumber - the sequence number of the earliest notification still in the buffer.
        nextSequenceNumber - the sequence number of the next notification available for querying.
        targetedNotifications - the notifications resulting from the query, and the listeners they correspond to. This array can be empty.
        Throws:
        IllegalArgumentException - if targetedNotifications is null or if earliestSequenceNumber or nextSequenceNumber is negative.
