## org.jgroups.protocols
Class TCPPING

    java.lang.Object
      org.jgroups.stack.Protocol
          org.jgroups.protocols.Discovery
              org.jgroups.protocols.TCPPING

    public class TCPPING

extends Discovery

The TCPPING protocol layer retrieves the initial membership in answer to the GMS's FIND_INITIAL_MBRS event. The initial membership is retrieved by directly contacting other group members, sending point-to-point membership requests. The responses should allow us to determine the coordinator whom we have to contact in case we want to join the group. When we are a server (after having received the BECOME_SERVER event), we'll respond to TCPPING requests with a TCPPING response.

The FIND_INITIAL_MBRS event will eventually be answered with a FIND_INITIAL_MBRS_OK event up the stack.

The TCPPING protocol requires a static configuration, which assumes that you to know in advance where to find other members of your group. For dynamic discovery, use the PING protocol, which uses multicast discovery, or the TCPGOSSIP protocol, which contacts a Gossip Router to acquire the initial membership.

Field Detail

### max_dynamic_hosts

    protected int max_dynamic_hosts

### dynamic_hosts

    protected final BoundedList<PhysicalAddress> dynamic_hosts

  https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JGRP-989

Constructor Detail

### TCPPING

    public TCPPING()

Method Detail

### getInitialHosts

    public java.util.List<IpAddress> getInitialHosts()

  Returns the list of initial hosts as configured by the user via XML. Note that the returned list is mutable, so careful with changes !

  Returns:
    List

### setInitialHosts

    public void setInitialHosts(java.util.List<IpAddress> initial_hosts)

### getPortRange

    public int getPortRange()

### setPortRange

    public void setPortRange(int port_range)

### getDynamicHostList

    public java.lang.String getDynamicHostList()

### getInitialHostsList

    public java.lang.String getInitialHostsList()

### init

    public void init()
              throws java.lang.Exception

  Description copied from class: `Protocol`
  Called after instance has been created (null constructor) and before protocol is started. Properties are already set. Other protocols are not yet connected and events cannot yet be sent.

  Overrides:
    `init` in class `Discovery`
  Throws:
    `java.lang.Exception` - Thrown if protocol cannot be initialized successfully. This will cause the ProtocolStack to fail, so the channel constructor will throw an exception

### start

    public void start()
               throws java.lang.Exception

  Description copied from class: `Protocol`
  This method is called on a `Channel.connect(String)`. Starts work. Protocols are connected and queues are ready to receive events. Will be called from bottom to top. This call will replace the START and START_OK events.

  Overrides:
    `start` in class `Discovery`
  Throws:
    `java.lang.Exception` - Thrown if protocol cannot be started successfully. This will cause the ProtocolStack to fail, so `Channel.connect(String)` will throw an exception

### sendGetMembersRequest

    public void sendGetMembersRequest(java.lang.String cluster_name,
                                      Promise promise,
                                      boolean return_views_only)
                               throws java.lang.Exception

  Specified by:
    `sendGetMembersRequest` in class `Discovery`
  Throws:
    `java.lang.Exception`

### down

    public java.lang.Object down(Event evt)

  Description copied from class: `Discovery`
  An event is to be sent down the stack. The layer may want to examine its type and perform some action on it, depending on the event's type. If the event is a message MSG, then the layer may need to add a header to it (or do nothing at all) before sending it down the stack using `PassDown`. In case of a GET_ADDRESS event (which tries to retrieve the stack's address from one of the bottom layers), the layer may need to send a new response event back up the stack using `up_prot.up()`. The PING protocol is interested in several different down events, Event.FIND_INITIAL_MBRS - sent by the GMS layer and expecting a GET_MBRS_OK Event.TMP_VIEW and Event.VIEW_CHANGE - a view change event Event.BECOME_SERVER - called after client has joined and is fully working group member Event.CONNECT, Event.DISCONNECT.

  Overrides:
    `down` in class `Discovery`

### discoveryRequestReceived

    public void discoveryRequestReceived(Address sender,
                                         java.lang.String logical_name,
                                         java.util.Collection<PhysicalAddress> physical_addrs)

  Overrides:
    `discoveryRequestReceived` in class `Discovery`
