mina框架分析:总体结构分析

1.首先，了解下mina框架有哪些特点，适合什么样的场景

MINA is a simple yet full-featurednetwork application framework which provides:

//可以支持各种协议，包括自己的协议

• Unified API for various transport types:
  • TCP/IP & UDP/IP via Java NIO
  • Serial communication (RS232) via RXTX
  • In-VM pipe communication
  • You can implement your own!

//提供滤波器接口

• Filter interface as an extension point; similar to Servlet filters

//可以调用不同类型的API，低层次的有ByteBuffer，高层次的有用户自己定义消息对象

• Low-level and high-level API:
  • Low-level: uses ByteBuffers
  • High-level: uses user-defined message objects and codecs

//非常个性化的线程订制，可以提供单线程，单线程池，多线程池

• Highly customizable thread model:
  • Single thread
  • One thread pool
  • More than one thread pools (i.e. SEDA)
• Out-of-the-box SSL · TLS · StartTLS support using Java 5 SSLEngine
• Overload shielding & traffic throttling
• Unit testability using mock objects
• JMX manageability

//支持对象流

• Stream-based I/O support via StreamIoHandler
• Integration with well known containers such as PicoContainer and Spring

//很容易从Netty移植到mina

• Smooth migration from Netty, an ancestor of Apache MINA.

2.分析mina框架结构和原理

MINA based Application Architecture

It's the question most asked : 'How does a MINA based application look like'? In this article lets see what's the architecture of MINA based application. Have tried to gather the information from presentations based on MINA.

A Bird's Eye View :

Here, we can see that MINA is the glue between your application (be it a client or a server) and the underlying network layer, which can be based on TCP, UDP, in-VM comunication or even a RS-232C serial protocol for a client.

You just have to design your application on top of MINA without having to handle all the complexity of the newtork layer.
