Method Detail

### decode

    public MICPMessage decode(byte[] buf,
                              int len,
                              MICPMessage into)
                       throws MICPProtocolException

  Parse the given buffer as an mICP message.
  Parameters:
    `buf` - The wire data to parse.
    `len` - The length of above buffer.
    `into` - Message structure to fill in.
  Returns:
    The filled in message.
  Throws:
    MICPProtocolException - If the given buffer is not an mICP wire formatted message.

### encode

    public int encode(int op,
                      int src,
                      int id,
                      java.lang.String url,
                      byte[] buf)

  Emit an MICP message into provided buffer. If the buffer is too small, a new buffer is allocated in place of the provided one (and returned).
  Parameters:
    `op` - The opcode for the message.
    `src` - The source field for the message.
    `id` - The identifier of that message.
    `url` - The URL for that message.
    `buf` - The buffer to encode the message to.
  Returns:
    A positive integer, giving the message length if buffer was big enough to hold the packet, a negative integer, giving required buffer size otherwise.
