Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
java.net.Socket	connectSocket(int connectTimeout, java.net.Socket sock, HttpHost host, java.net.InetSocketAddress remoteAddress, java.net.InetSocketAddress localAddress, HttpContext context) Connects the socket to the target host with the given resolved remote address.
java.net.Socket	createSocket(HttpContext context) Creates new, unconnected socket.

Method Detail

createSocket

java.net.Socket createSocket(HttpContext context)
                      throws java.io.IOException

Creates new, unconnected socket. The socket should subsequently be passed to connectSocket method.

Returns:

a new socket

Throws:

java.io.IOException - if an I/O error occurs while creating the socket

connectSocket

java.net.Socket connectSocket(int connectTimeout,
                              java.net.Socket sock,
                              HttpHost host,
                              java.net.InetSocketAddress remoteAddress,
                              java.net.InetSocketAddress localAddress,
                              HttpContext context)
                       throws java.io.IOException

Connects the socket to the target host with the given resolved remote address.

Parameters:

connectTimeout - connect timeout.

sock - the socket to connect, as obtained from createSocket(HttpContext). null indicates that a new socket should be created and connected.

host - target host as specified by the caller (end user).

remoteAddress - the resolved remote address to connect to.

localAddress - the local address to bind the socket to, or null for any.

context - the actual HTTP context.

Returns:

the connected socket. The returned object may be different from the sock argument if this factory supports a layered protocol.

Throws:

java.io.IOException - if an I/O error occurs
