Annotation Interface OnOpen

@Retention(RUNTIME)
@Target(METHOD)
public @interface OnOpen

WebSocket and WebSocketClient endpoint methods annotated with this annotation are invoked when a new connection is opened. An endpoint may declare at most one method annotated with this annotation.

Execution model

• Methods annotated with RunOnVirtualThread are considered blocking and should be executed on a virtual thread.
• Methods annotated with Blocking are considered blocking and should be executed on a worker thread.
• Methods annotated with NonBlocking are considered non-blocking and should be executed on an event loop thread.

Execution model for methods which don't declare any of the annotation listed above is derived from the return type:

• Methods returning void are considered blocking and should be executed on a worker thread.
• Methods returning Uni or Multi are considered non-blocking and should be executed on an event loop thread.
• Methods returning any other type are considered blocking and should be executed on a worker thread.

Method parameters

The method may accept the following parameters:

• WebSocketConnection/WebSocketClientConnection; depending on the endpoint type
• HandshakeRequest
• String parameters annotated with PathParam
