JDK7的NIO2特性或許是我最期待的，我一直想基于它寫一個高性能的Java Http Server.現(xiàn)在這個想法終于可以實施了。
本人基于目前最新的JDK7 b76開發(fā)了一個HTTP Server性能確實不錯。
在windows平臺上NIO2采用AccpetEx來異步接受連接，并且讀寫全都關聯(lián)到IOCP完成端口。不僅如此，為了方便開發(fā)者使用，連IOCP工作線程都封裝好了，你只要提供線程池就OK。
但是要注意，IOCP工作線程的線程池必須是 Fix的，因為你發(fā)出的讀寫請求都關聯(lián)到相應的線程上，如果線程死了，那讀寫完成情況是不知道的。
作為一個Http Server，傳送文件是必不可少的功能，那一般文件的傳送都是要把程序里的buffer拷貝到內(nèi)核的buffer，由內(nèi)核發(fā)送出去的。windows平臺上為這種情況提供了很好的解決方案，使用TransmitFile接口
BOOL TransmitFile(
SOCKET hSocket,
HANDLE hFile,
DWORD nNumberOfBytesToWrite,
DWORD nNumberOfBytesPerSend,
LPOVERLAPPED lpOverlapped,
LPTRANSMIT_FILE_BUFFERS lpTransmitBuffers,
DWORD dwFlags
);
你只要把文件句柄發(fā)送給內(nèi)核就行了，內(nèi)核幫你搞定其余的，真正做到Zero-Copy.
但是很不幸，NIO2里AsynchronousSocketChannel沒有提供這樣的支持。而為HTTP Server的性能考量，本人只好自己增加這個支持。
要無縫支持，這個必須得表現(xiàn)的跟 Read /Write一樣，有完成的通知，通知傳送多少數(shù)據(jù)，等等。
仔細讀完sun的IOCP實現(xiàn)以后發(fā)現(xiàn)這部分工作他們封裝得很好，基本只要往他們的框架里加東西就好了。
為了能訪問他們的框架代碼，我定義自己的TransmitFile支持類在sun.nio.ch包里，以獲得最大的權限。

這個操作跟默認實現(xiàn)的里的write操作是很像的，只是最后調(diào)用的本地方法不一樣。。
接下來，我們怎么使用呢，這個類是定義在sun的包里的，直接用的話，會報IllegalAccessError,因為我們的類加載器跟初始化加載器是不一樣的。
解決辦法一個是通過啟動參數(shù)-Xbootclasspath，讓我們的包被初始加載器加載。我個人不喜歡這種辦法，所以就采用JNI來定義我們的windows TransmitFile支持類。
這樣我們的工作算是完成了，注意，發(fā)送文件的時候傳得是文件句柄，這樣做的好處是你可以更好的控制，一般是在發(fā)送前，打開文件句柄，完成后在回調(diào)通知方法里關閉文件句柄。
有興趣的同學可以看看我的HTTP server項目:
http://code.google.com/p/jabhttpd/
目前基本功能實現(xiàn)得差不多，做了些簡單的測試，性能比較滿意。這個服務器不打算支持servlet api，基本是專門給做基于長連接模式通信的定做的。
