Method Detail

start

void start()
           throws IOException

Starts the communicator.

Throws:

IOException - if a networking error occurs

isActive

boolean isActive()

Checks whether the communicator is active (was started) or not (is stopped).

Returns:

true if the communicator is active, false otherwise

stop

void stop()
          throws IOException

Stops the communicator.

Throws:

dumpIncomingOSC

void dumpIncomingOSC(int mode,
                     PrintStream stream)

Changes the way incoming messages are dumped to the console. By default incoming messages are not dumped. Incoming messages are those received by the client from the server, before they get delivered to registered OSCListeners.

Parameters:

mode - see dumpOSC( int ) for details

stream - the stream to print on, or null which is shorthand for System.err

See Also:

OSCChannel.dumpOSC( int, PrintStream ), dumpOutgoingOSC( int, PrintStream )

dumpOutgoingOSC

void dumpOutgoingOSC(int mode,
                     PrintStream stream)

Changes the way outgoing messages are dumped to the console. By default outgoing messages are not dumped. Outgoing messages are those send via send.

Parameters:

mode - see dumpOSC( int ) for details

stream - the stream to print on, or null which is shorthand for System.err
