In a former question How to create a working TCP Server socket in spring boot and how to handle the incoming message? I was stuck in some problems with spring integration and handling a TCP socket connection. That problem is solved, but a new one appered, unfortunately... I got my message from the client - so far so good - but now I tried to use the allready existing business logic to process the message like this:
This is a class to handle an incoming socket message. Implemented via spring integration
import homebrew.something.MessageProcessor;
import lombok.extern.log4j.Log4j2;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.integration.annotation.MessageEndpoint;
import org.springframework.integration.annotation.ServiceActivator;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Component;
@Log4j2
@Component
@MessageEndpoint
public class ClientSocketHandler {
@Autowired
private MessageProcessor messageProcessor;
@ServiceActivator(inputChannel = "toTcp")
public byte[] handleMessage(byte[] msg) {
byte[] msgToSend = messageProcessor.processMessage(msg);
return msgToSend;
}
}
This is a regular transfer object class bound to a HTTP session
import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Component;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.Scope;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.ScopedProxyMode;
@Component
@Scope(value = "session", proxyMode = ScopedProxyMode.TARGET_CLASS)
public class ASimpleTransferObject {
// Some fields,
// some getters and
// some setters
}
Here we got our service to handle the incoming message from the TCP socket
import lombok.extern.log4j.Log4j2;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Service;
@Log4j2
@Service
public class MessageProcessor {
@Autowired
private ASimpleTransferObject transferObject;
public byte[] processMessage(byte[] msg) {
// Do something with the message
return message;
}
}
If I am sending a message from client to server, this Exception is thrown:
ERROR org.springframework.integration.ip.tcp.connection.TcpNetConnection - Exception sending message: GenericMessage [payload=byte[0], headers={ip_tcp_remotePort=XXXX, ip_connectionId=view-localhost:XXXXX:YYYYY:AAAA-BBBB-CCCC, ip_localInetAddress=/127.0.0.1, ip_address=127.0.0.1, id=fd33bdd9-1af1-051f-3106-3f08af7bdd16, ip_hostname=view-localhost, timestamp=87236587436545}]

I allready tried to put a RequestContextListener to my spring configuration
@Bean
public RequestContextListener requestContextListener() {
return new RequestContextListener();
}
but that didn't realy help. The same Exception was thrown again.
Is there a solution for that problem?
Thanks a lot in advance!
It is definitely not possible since TCP connection is fully not related to HTTP connection. We have that session context, when we deal with an HTTP connection initiated from the HTTP client and when we have a session management in our HTTP server, e.g. Srvlet Container.
The TCP connection is initiated fully different way and there is no hook to take an HTTP session from the manager since there is no an HTTP request tied with that session.
You probably need to learn more about HTTP and its session state...
The main point that TCP connection is done in a thread which knows nothing about HTTP and we can initialize session scope only when we do an interaction with HTTP thread and some client session token in the request.
I'm not sure how to help you, but what you are looking for is just not possible and you can't use that session scope outside of HTTP requests. You need to rethink your business logic to something else which will fit your TCP request already.
