BlockConsumer (org.refcodes:refcodes-io 1.9.9 API)

Type Parameters:

DATA - The type of the datagram block (array) to be operated with. Do not provide an array type as the methods use to generic type for defining an array argument.

All Known Subinterfaces:

BidirectionalConnectionTransceiver<DATA,INPUT,OUTPUT>, BidirectionalStreamConnectionTransceiver<DATA>, BlockSender<DATA>, BlockTransceiver<DATA>, ConnectionSender<DATA,CON>, ConnectionTransceiver<DATA,CON>, Consumer<DATA>, LoopbackSender<DATA>, LoopbackTransceiver<DATA>, OutputStreamConnectionSender<DATA>, Sender<DATA>, Transceiver<DATA>

All Known Implementing Classes:

AbstractSender, BidirectionalStreamConnectionTransceiverImpl, BidirectionalStreamTransceiverImpl, LoopbackSenderImpl, LoopbackTransceiverImpl, OutputStreamConnectionSenderImpl, OutputStreamSenderImpl, PrefetchBidirectionalStreamConnectionTransceiverImpl, PrefetchBidirectionalStreamTransceiverImpl, SenderDecorator

Functional Interface:

This is a functional interface and can therefore be used as the assignment target for a lambda expression or method reference.
```
@FunctionalInterface
public interface BlockConsumer<DATA extends java.io.Serializable>
```
The BlockConsumer is used to send datagram blocks (arrays) in a unified way.

- Method Detail
  - writeDatagrams
```
default void writeDatagrams(DATA[] aDatagram)
                     throws org.refcodes.component.OpenException
```
    Writes (sends) a datagram block to a listening DatagramReceiver or BlockReceiver.
    
    Parameters:
    
    aDatagram - The datagram to be pushed to the receiving DatagramReceiver or BlockReceiver.
    
    Throws:
    
    org.refcodes.component.OpenException - Thrown in case opening or accessing an open line (connection, junction, link) caused problems.
  - writeDatagrams
```
void writeDatagrams(DATA[] aDatagram,
                    int aOffset,
                    int aLength)
             throws org.refcodes.component.OpenException
```
    Write datagrams.
    
    Parameters:
    
    aDatagram - the datagram
    
    aOffset - the offset
    
    aLength - the length
    
    Throws:
    
    org.refcodes.component.OpenException - the open exception
