Interface com.oroinc.net.SocketFactory

public interface SocketFactory
The SocketFactory interface provides a means for the programmer to control the creation of sockets and provide his own Socket implementations for use by all classes derived from SocketClient . This allows you to provide your own Socket implementations and to perform security checks or browser capability requests before creating a Socket.

Methods

 o createSocket
 public abstract Socket createSocket(String host,
                                     int port) throws UnknownHostException, IOException
Creates a Socket connected to the given host and port.

Parameters:
host - The hostname to connect to.
port - The port to connect to.
Returns:
A Socket connected to the given host and port.
Throws: UnknownHostException
If the hostname cannot be resolved.
Throws: IOException
If an I/O error occurs while creating the Socket.
 o createSocket
 public abstract Socket createSocket(InetAddress address,
                                     int port) throws IOException
Creates a Socket connected to the given host and port.

Parameters:
address - The address of the host to connect to.
port - The port to connect to.
Returns:
A Socket connected to the given host and port.
Throws: IOException
If an I/O error occurs while creating the Socket.
 o createSocket
 public abstract Socket createSocket(String host,
                                     int port,
                                     InetAddress localAddr,
                                     int localPort) throws UnknownHostException, IOException
Creates a Socket connected to the given host and port and originating from the specified local address and port.

Parameters:
host - The hostname to connect to.
port - The port to connect to.
localAddr - The local address to use.
localPort - The local port to use.
Returns:
A Socket connected to the given host and port.
Throws: UnknownHostException
If the hostname cannot be resolved.
Throws: IOException
If an I/O error occurs while creating the Socket.
 o createSocket
 public abstract Socket createSocket(InetAddress address,
                                     int port,
                                     InetAddress localAddr,
                                     int localPort) throws IOException
Creates a Socket connected to the given host and port and originating from the specified local address and port.

Parameters:
address - The address of the host to connect to.
port - The port to connect to.
localAddr - The local address to use.
localPort - The local port to use.
Returns:
A Socket connected to the given host and port.
Throws: IOException
If an I/O error occurs while creating the Socket.
 o createServerSocket
 public abstract ServerSocket createServerSocket(int port) throws IOException
Creates a ServerSocket bound to a specified port. A port of 0 will create the ServerSocket on a system-determined free port.

Parameters:
port - The port on which to listen, or 0 to use any free port.
Returns:
A ServerSocket that will listen on a specified port.
Throws: IOException
If an I/O error occurs while creating the ServerSocket.
 o createServerSocket
 public abstract ServerSocket createServerSocket(int port,
                                                 int backlog) throws IOException
Creates a ServerSocket bound to a specified port with a given maximum queue length for incoming connections. A port of 0 will create the ServerSocket on a system-determined free port.

Parameters:
port - The port on which to listen, or 0 to use any free port.
backlog - The maximum length of the queue for incoming connections.
Returns:
A ServerSocket that will listen on a specified port.
Throws: IOException
If an I/O error occurs while creating the ServerSocket.
 o createServerSocket
 public abstract ServerSocket createServerSocket(int port,
                                                 int backlog,
                                                 InetAddress bindAddr) throws IOException
Creates a ServerSocket bound to a specified port on a given local address with a given maximum queue length for incoming connections. A port of 0 will create the ServerSocket on a system-determined free port.

Parameters:
port - The port on which to listen, or 0 to use any free port.
backlog - The maximum length of the queue for incoming connections.
bindAddr - The local address to which the ServerSocket should bind.
Returns:
A ServerSocket that will listen on a specified port.
Throws: IOException
If an I/O error occurs while creating the ServerSocket.
