Sample Application

The following hava code demonstrates the use of the library. It starts up a simple server implementation, and then uses the client API to check out a book.

public class Sample {

  public static void main(String[] args) {
    try {
      System.setProperty("com.ceridwen.circulation.SIP.charset", "ISO8859_1");

      SIPDaemon server;

      // Run netty server
      server = new SIPDaemon("Sample", "localhost", 12345, false, new DummyDriverFactory(), true);
      server.start();

      // Do sample checkout
      Sample.checkOut();

      // Shut down netty server
      server.stop();
    } catch (Exception ex) {
      Logger.getLogger(Sample.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
    }
  }

  public static void checkOut() {
    /**
     * Now try basic client commands
     */
    SocketConnection connection;

    connection = new SocketConnection();
    connection.setHost("localhost");
    connection.setPort(12345);
    connection.setConnectionTimeout(30000);
    connection.setIdleTimeout(30000);
    connection.setRetryAttempts(2);
    connection.setRetryWait(500);

    try {
      connection.connect();
    } catch (Exception ex) {
      Logger.getLogger(Sample.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
      return;
    }

     * will assume 1.0)
     */
    SCStatus scStatusRequest = new SCStatus();
    scStatusRequest.setProtocolVersion(ProtocolVersion.VERSION_2_00);

    Message scStatusResponse;

    try {
      scStatusResponse = connection.send(scStatusRequest);
    } catch (RetriesExceeded | ConnectionFailure | MessageNotUnderstood | ChecksumError | SequenceError | MandatoryFieldOmitted | InvalidFieldLength ex) {
      Logger.getLogger(Sample.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
      return;
    }

    if (!(scStatusResponse instanceof ACSStatus)) {
      Logger.getLogger(Sample.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, "Error - Status Request did not return valid response from server.");
      return;
    }

     */

     * Check if the server can support checkout
     */
    if (!((ACSStatus) scStatusResponse).getSupportedMessages().isSet(SupportedMessages.CHECK_OUT)) {
      Logger.getLogger(Sample.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, "Check out not supported");
      return;
    }

    CheckOut checkOutRequest = new CheckOut();

    /**
     * Now try a checkout request
     */
    checkOutRequest.setPatronIdentifier("2000000");
    checkOutRequest.setItemIdentifier("300000000");
    checkOutRequest.setSCRenewalPolicy(Boolean.TRUE);
    checkOutRequest.setTransactionDate(new Date());

    Message checkOutResponse;

    try {
      checkOutResponse = connection.send(checkOutRequest);
    } catch (RetriesExceeded | ConnectionFailure | MessageNotUnderstood | ChecksumError | SequenceError | MandatoryFieldOmitted | InvalidFieldLength ex) {
      Logger.getLogger(Sample.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
      return;

    }
    checkOutResponse.xmlEncode(System.out);

    connection.disconnect();
  }
