# 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
