Java EE7: Non-blocking Servlet IO

Java EE7 added support for Non-blocking Servlet IO (NIO) in Servlet 3.1, which enables reading and writing data without blocking a thread, which can be very useful when faced with slow clients. The new function builds upon support for asynchronous processing that was introduced in Servlet 3.0, and will only work with async-enabled apps.

This sample contains a few variations to illustrate how Non-blocking IO in Servlet 3.1 works:

• Plain: PlainServlet is just a plain/synchronous servlet
• Async: AsyncServlet defines an asynchronous servlet using attribuets defined in the Servlet 3.0 specification.
• Async with Runnable: AsyncServletRunnable is an asynchronous servlet that uses a runnable to offload work to a different thread.
• Async with NIO: AsyncServletNIO is a servlet that uses an AsyncReadListener for clients that are slow to write data, and an AsyncWriteListener for clients that are slow to read data.

Getting Started:

Browse the code to see what it does, or build and run it yourself:

• Building and running on the command line using Maven and Gradle
• Building and running using Eclipse and WebSphere Development Tools (WDT)

Once the server has been started, go to http://localhost:9083/servlet-nio/ to interact with the sample.
