Known subclasses: twisted.words.protocols.msn.DispatchClient, twisted.words.protocols.msn.NotificationClient, twisted.words.protocols.msn.SwitchboardClient

This class provides support for handling / dispatching events and is the base class of the three main client protocols (DispatchClient, NotificationClient, SwitchboardClient)

Method __init__ Undocumented
Method connectionLost Called when the connection is shut down.
Method connectionMade Called when a connection is made.
Method checkMessage process received messages to check for file invitations and typing notifications and other control type messages
Method lineReceived Override this for when each line is received.
Method rawDataReceived Override this for when raw data is received.
Method handle_MSG Undocumented
Method handle_UNKNOWN implement me in subclasses if you want to handle unknown events
Method gotMessage called when we receive a message - override in notification and switchboard clients
Method gotBadLine called when a handler notifies me that this line is broken
Method gotError called when the server sends an error which is not in response to a sent command (ie. it has no matching transaction ID)
Method _fireCallback Fire the callback for the given id if one exists and return 1, else return false
Method _nextTransactionID return a usable transaction ID
Method _createIDMapping return a unique transaction ID that is mapped internally to a deferred .. also store arbitrary data if it is needed

def connectionLost(self, reason): (source)

Called when the connection is shut down.

Clear any circular references here, and any external references to this Protocol. The connection has been closed.

def connectionMade(self): (source)

Called when a connection is made.

This may be considered the initializer of the protocol, because it is called when the connection is completed. For clients, this is called once the connection to the server has been established; for servers, this is called after an accept() call stops blocking and a socket has been received. If you need to send any greeting or initial message, do it here.

def _fireCallback(self, id, *args): (source)

Fire the callback for the given id if one exists and return 1, else return false

def _nextTransactionID(self): (source)

return a usable transaction ID

def _createIDMapping(self, data=None): (source)

return a unique transaction ID that is mapped internally to a deferred .. also store arbitrary data if it is needed

def checkMessage(self, message): (source)

process received messages to check for file invitations and typing notifications and other control type messages

def lineReceived(self, line): (source)

Override this for when each line is received.

ParameterslineThe line which was received with the delimiter removed. (type: bytes)
def rawDataReceived(self, data): (source)

Override this for when raw data is received.

def handle_MSG(self, params): (source)
Undocumented
def handle_UNKNOWN(self, cmd, params): (source)

implement me in subclasses if you want to handle unknown events

def gotMessage(self, message): (source)

called when we receive a message - override in notification and switchboard clients

def gotBadLine(self, line, why): (source)

called when a handler notifies me that this line is broken

def gotError(self, errorCode): (source)

called when the server sends an error which is not in response to a sent command (ie. it has no matching transaction ID)
