public interface Encoder
The Encoder interface defines how developers can provide a way to convert their custom objects into web socket messages. The Encoder interface contains subinterfaces that allow encoding algorithms to encode custom objects to: text, binary data, character stream and write to an output stream. The websocket implementation creates a new instance of the encoder per endpoint instance per connection. This means that each encoder instance has at most one calling thread at a time. The lifecycle of the Encoder instance is governed by the container calls to theinit(jakarta.websocket.EndpointConfig)
anddestroy()
methods.- Author:

Method Summary
All Methods Instance Methods Default Methods Modifier and Type Method Description default void
destroy()
This method is called when the encoder is about to be removed from service in order that any resources the encoder used may be closed gracefully.default void
