Unmarshalling Hangs on Open Socket

问题

I've written a runnable network class that listens on a socket and unmarshalls the input. It also can write to the socket with a marshalled object. An issue arises because the socket remains open (in order to allow later communication between client and host) - this causes the unmarshalling of the input stream to hang. I've tried writing XMLStreamConstants.END_DOCUMENT from the sender side but this causes an error unmarshalling instead of hanging. Here's some of the code for the network class:

@Override
public void update(Observable o, Object arg) {
    try {
        if(!this.updatedByNetwork){
            OutputStream os = socket.getOutputStream();
            mh.marshal(this.gm.getBoard(), os);
            os.flush();
        }
    }catch (IOException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    } catch (JAXBException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }
}
@Override
public void run() {
    try {
        if (this.ss != null){
            this.socket = this.ss.accept();
            this.update(this.gm, null);
        }
        while (true){
            try {
                InputStream is = socket.getInputStream();
                Board b = mh.unmarshal(is);
                this.updatedByNetwork = true;
                this.gm.updateBoard(b);
            } catch (SocketTimeoutException e){
                e.printStackTrace();
            } catch (JAXBException e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
            }
        }
    } catch (IOException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }
} 

Here's the code for my marshall handler:

public Board unmarshal(InputStream in) throws JAXBException{
        Unmarshaller um = this.jc.createUnmarshaller();
        Board b = (Board) um.unmarshal(in);
        return b;
}
public void marshal(Board b, OutputStream os) throws JAXBException {
        Marshaller m = this.jc.createMarshaller();
        m.setProperty(Marshaller.JAXB_FORMATTED_OUTPUT, true);
        m.marshal(b, os);
}

So, is there a way to signify the end of file for the unmarshaller? Or, is there a better way to do this?

回答1:

Even if there is a way to signal "end of file" to the unmarshaller, there is still a chance that the unmarshaller will read into the next message when two or more messages are send directly after each other. To prevent this from happening, a network protocol layer needs to be in place that logically separates the bytes send/received into separate messages. In the example below this 'protocol' is implemented in the writeMsg and readMsg methods. Note that this is a simple example that assumes all messages can be processed entirely in memory.
