public interface StanzaListener

Provides a mechanism to listen for packets that pass a specified filter. This allows event-style programming -- every time a new stanza is found, the processStanza(Stanza) method will be called. This is the opposite approach to the functionality provided by a StanzaCollector which lets you block while waiting for results.

Additionally you are able to intercept Packets that are going to be send and make modifications to them. You can register a PacketListener as interceptor by using XMPPConnection.addStanzaInterceptor(StanzaListener, org.jivesoftware.smack.filter.StanzaFilter)

Method Detail

processStanza

void processStanza(Stanza packet)
            throws SmackException.NotConnectedException,
                   java.lang.InterruptedException,
                   SmackException.NotLoggedInException

Process the next stanza sent to this stanza listener.

If this listener is synchronous, then a single thread is responsible for invoking all listeners, so it's very important that implementations of this method not block for any extended period of time.

Parameters:

packet - the stanza to process.

Throws:

SmackException.NotConnectedException - if the XMPP connection is not connected.

java.lang.InterruptedException - if the calling thread was interrupted.

SmackException.NotLoggedInException - if the XMPP connection is not authenticated.
