前面提到了IoFilter,FilterChain等接口和类,在分析过滤器链怎么串起来之前,有必要看一下这些接口和类之间的关系。
如上图所示:
FilterChain是由一个个Entry串起来的,EntryImpl是Entry的实现;
从EntryImpl中可以获取到Filter与NextFilter,NextFilter相当于那根线(指针);
有两个特殊的Entry,里面的Filter分别是HeadFilter和TailFilter,我们添加的Filter都处于这两个Filter之间;
每做完一个Entry,NextFilter会回到FilterChain处理下一个Entry(处理顺序如下图所示)。
由上图可知:
(1)当消息到来时,触发过滤器链的fireXXX事件(这一步一般在processor里面触发);
(2)从过滤器链获取上头结点Entry,从头结点Entry中取出filter和nextFilter;
(3)Filter处理后,交由nextFilter处理,nextFilter并不是一个真正的Filter,它决定这个过滤器链的走向,在这里它是返回到过滤器链;
(4)过滤器链通过nextFilter指针得到下一个entry,重复执行(2)、(3),直到每个Entry都处理完。
这里抛出两个问题:
1、如何保证新加入的过滤器在HeadFilter与TailFilter之间?
2、nextFilter一定是从左向右的顺序吗?
3、TailFilter调用了IoHandler吗?
对于第一个问题,答案在EntryImpl的构造方法里面
// EntryImpl构造方法 private EntryImpl(EntryImpl prevEntry, EntryImpl nextEntry, String name, IoFilter filter) { ...... this.prevEntry = prevEntry; this.nextEntry = nextEntry; this.name = name; this.filter = filter; this.nextFilter = new NextFilter() { ...... }; } //FilterChain构造方法 public DefaultIoFilterChain(AbstractIoSession session) { if (session == null) { throw new IllegalArgumentException("session"); } this.session = session; head = new EntryImpl(null, null, "head", new HeadFilter()); tail = new EntryImpl(head, null, "tail", new TailFilter()); head.nextEntry = tail; }在FilterChain构造方法里面初始化了两个Entry:
我们一般调用IoFilterChain的如下方法添加过滤器
void addFirst(String name, IoFilter filter); void addLast(String name, IoFilter filter); void addBefore(String baseName, String name, IoFilter filter); void addAfter(String baseName, String name, IoFilter filter);这里以addLast为例,先看看addLast方法的实现
public synchronized void addFirst(String name, IoFilter filter) { checkAddable(name); register(head, name, filter); } private void register(EntryImpl prevEntry, String name, IoFilter filter) { EntryImpl newEntry = new EntryImpl(prevEntry, prevEntry.nextEntry, name, filter); ...... prevEntry.nextEntry.prevEntry = newEntry; prevEntry.nextEntry = newEntry; name2entry.put(name, newEntry); ...... }从代码一目了然,这就是一个简单的链表操作,在这里第一个问题回答完毕。
对于第二个问题答案是否定的。从IoFilter接口可以看出,一共处理以下几种事件:
sessionCreated
sessionOpened
sessionClosed
sessionIdle
exceptionCaught
messageReceived
messageSent
filterClose
filterWrite
前面FilterChain的构造方法中,省略了NextFilter的实现,这里补上
this.nextFilter = new NextFilter() { public void sessionCreated(IoSession session) { Entry nextEntry = EntryImpl.this.nextEntry; callNextSessionCreated(nextEntry, session); } public void sessionOpened(IoSession session) { Entry nextEntry = EntryImpl.this.nextEntry; callNextSessionOpened(nextEntry, session); } public void sessionClosed(IoSession session) { Entry nextEntry = EntryImpl.this.nextEntry; callNextSessionClosed(nextEntry, session); } public void sessionIdle(IoSession session, IdleStatus status) { Entry nextEntry = EntryImpl.this.nextEntry; callNextSessionIdle(nextEntry, session, status); } public void exceptionCaught(IoSession session, Throwable cause) { Entry nextEntry = EntryImpl.this.nextEntry; callNextExceptionCaught(nextEntry, session, cause); } public void messageReceived(IoSession session, Object message) { Entry nextEntry = EntryImpl.this.nextEntry; callNextMessageReceived(nextEntry, session, message); } public void messageSent(IoSession session, WriteRequest writeRequest) { Entry nextEntry = EntryImpl.this.nextEntry; callNextMessageSent(nextEntry, session, writeRequest); } public void filterWrite(IoSession session, WriteRequest writeRequest) { Entry nextEntry = EntryImpl.this.prevEntry; callPreviousFilterWrite(nextEntry, session, writeRequest); } public void filterClose(IoSession session) { Entry nextEntry = EntryImpl.this.prevEntry; callPreviousFilterClose(nextEntry, session); } }
可以看出filterWrite与filterClose是反向的,其他都是正向的。
对于第三个问题,直接看TailFilter的代码即可:
public void messageReceived(NextFilter nextFilter, IoSession session, Object message) throws Exception { AbstractIoSession s = (AbstractIoSession) session; if (!(message instanceof IoBuffer)) { s.increaseReadMessages(System.currentTimeMillis()); } else if (!((IoBuffer) message).hasRemaining()) { s.increaseReadMessages(System.currentTimeMillis()); } try { session.getHandler().messageReceived(s, message); } finally { if (s.getConfig().isUseReadOperation()) { s.offerReadFuture(message); } } }确实调用了handler来处理真正的请求。 总结一下:FilterChain是由Entry组成一个链表,HeadFilter与TailFilter所在Entry分别是链表的首尾,HeadFilter与processor相连,TailFilter与handler相连,添加Filter的操作实际上是普通的链表插入操作。FilterChain可以触发多种事件,每种事件到来时Filter的顺序是正序还是倒序由nextFilter决定。
