## Class AbstractNotificationHandler<T>

- java.lang.Object
- - com.sun.nio.sctp.AbstractNotificationHandler<T>

- All Implemented Interfaces:
    `NotificationHandler<T>`

      public class AbstractNotificationHandler<T>
      extends Object
      implements NotificationHandler<T>

  A skeletal handler that consumes notifications and continues.

  This class trivially implements the `handleNotification` methods to return `CONTINUE` so that all notifications are consumed and the channel continues to try and receive a message.

  It also provides overloaded versions of the `handleNotification` methods, one for each of the required supported notification types, `AssociationChangeNotification`, `PeerAddressChangeNotification`, `SendFailedNotification`, and `ShutdownNotification`. The appropriate method will be invoked when the notification is received.

  Since:
    1.7
