Method Details
-
send
Sends a MIDI message and time-stamp to this receiver. If time-stamping is not supported by this receiver, the time-stamp value should be -1.- Parameters:
message- the MIDI message to sendtimeStamp- the time-stamp for the message, in microseconds- Throws:
IllegalStateException- if the receiver is closed
-
close
void close()Indicates that the application has finished using the receiver, and that limited resources it requires may be released or made available.If the creation of this
Receiverresulted in implicitly opening the underlying device, the device is implicitly closed by this method. This is true unless the device is kept open by otherReceiverorTransmitterinstances that opened the device implicitly, and unless the device has been opened explicitly. If the device thisReceiveris retrieved from is closed explicitly by callingMidiDevice.close, theReceiveris closed, too. For a detailed description of open/close behaviour see the class description ofMidiDevice.- Specified by:
