* <h2>Incoming Stanza Listeners</h2>
|
||||
* Most callbacks (listeners, handlers, …) than you can add to a connection come in three different variants:
|
||||
* <ul>
|
||||
* <li>standard</li>
|
||||
* <li>async (asynchronous)</li>
|
||||
* <li>sync (synchronous)</li>
|
||||
* </ul>
|
||||
* <p>
|
||||
* Standard callbacks are invoked concurrently, but it is ensured that the same callback is never run concurrently.
|
||||
* The callback's identity is used as key for that. The events delivered to the callback preserve the order of the
|
||||
* causing events of the connection.
|
||||
* </p>
|
||||
* <p>
|
||||
* Asynchronous callbacks are run decoupled from the connections main event loop. Hence a callback triggered by
|
||||
* stanza B may (appear to) invoked before a callback triggered by stanza A, even though stanza A arrived before B.
|
||||
* </p>
|
||||
* <p>
|
||||
* Synchronous callbacks are run synchronous to the main event loop of a connection. Hence they are invoked in the
|
||||
* exact order of how events happen there, most importantly the arrival order of incoming stanzas. You should only
|
||||
* use synchronous callbacks in rare situations.
