uid: com.microsoft.azure.eventhubs._partition_receiver.receive(final int) summary: Receives a batch of EventData objects from an Event Hubs partition. remarks: *content

The following sample code uses the synchronous version of the API, but the concepts are the same:

EventHubClient client = createFromConnectionStringSync(final String connectionString)("connection");
PartitionReceiver receiver = client.createPartitionReceiverSync("ConsumerGroup1", "1"); 
Iterable{<}EventData{>} receivedEvents = receiver.receiveSync();

while (true) 
{ 
    int batchSize = 0; 
    if (receivedEvents != null) 
    { 
        for(EventData receivedEvent: receivedEvents) 
        { 
            System.out.println(String.format("Message Payload: %s", new String(receivedEvent.getBytes(), Charset.defaultCharset()))); 
            System.out.println(String.format("Offset: %s, SeqNo: %s, EnqueueTime: %s", receivedEvent.getSystemProperties().getOffset(), receivedEvent.getSystemProperties().getSequenceNumber(), receivedEvent.getSystemProperties().getEnqueuedTime())); 
            batchSize++; 
        } 
    } 

    System.out.println(String.format("ReceivedBatch Size: %s", batchSize)); 
    receivedEvents = receiver.receiveSync(); 
}
