## org.apache.mina.filter.codec
Interface ProtocolEncoder

All Known Implementing Classes:
  NettyEncoder, ObjectSerializationEncoder, ProtocolEncoderAdapter, SynchronizedProtocolEncoder, TextLineEncoder

    public interface ProtocolEncoder

Encodes higher-level message objects into binary or protocol-specific data. MINA invokes `encode(IoSession, Object, ProtocolEncoderOutput)` method with message which is popped from the session write queue, and then the encoder implementation puts encoded `ByteBuffer`s into `ProtocolEncoderOutput` by calling `ProtocolEncoderOutput.write(ByteBuffer)`.

Please refer to `TextLineEncoder` example.

Method Summary
`void` | `dispose(IoSession session)` Releases all resources related with this encoder.
`void` | `encode(IoSession session, Object message, ProtocolEncoderOutput out)` Encodes higher-level message objects into binary or protocol-specific data.

Method Detail

### encode

    void encode(IoSession session,
                Object message,
                ProtocolEncoderOutput out)
                throws Exception

  Encodes higher-level message objects into binary or protocol-specific data. MINA invokes `encode(IoSession, Object, ProtocolEncoderOutput)` method with message which is popped from the session write queue, and then the encoder implementation puts encoded `ByteBuffer`s into `ProtocolEncoderOutput`.

  Throws:
    `Exception` - if the message violated protocol specification

### dispose

    void dispose(IoSession session)
                 throws Exception

  Releases all resources related with this encoder.

  Throws:
    `Exception` - if failed to dispose all resources
