Method Detail

getTimestamp

public Date getTimestamp()

Description copied from interface: Message

Returns the timestamp indicating when this message has been sent.

Specified by:

getTimestamp in interface Message

Returns:

Date indicating the timestamp in the message or null if the timestamp is not set or if the time information is not available in the underlying protocol message

getAddress

public String getAddress()

Description copied from interface: Message

Returns the address associated with this message.

If this is a message to be sent, then this address is the recipient's address.

If this is a message that has been received, then this address is the sender's address.

Returns null, if the address for the message is not set.

Note: This design allows responses to be sent to a received message by reusing the same Message object and just replacing the payload. The address field can normally be kept untouched (unless the messaging protocol requires some special handling of the address).

Specified by:

getAddress in interface Message

Returns:

the address of this message, or null if the address is not set
