All Known Implementing Classes:

DefaultManagedHttpClientConnection

public interface ManagedHttpClientConnection
extends org.apache.http.HttpClientConnection, org.apache.http.HttpInetConnection

Represents a managed connection whose state and life cycle is managed by a connection manager. This interface extends HttpClientConnection with methods to bind the connection to an arbitrary socket and to obtain SSL session details.

Since:

4.3

Method Summary

void	bind(java.net.Socket socket) Binds this connection to the given socket.
java.lang.String	getId() Returns connection ID which is expected to be unique for the life span of the connection manager.
java.net.Socket	getSocket() Returns the underlying socket.
javax.net.ssl.SSLSession	getSSLSession() Obtains the SSL session of the underlying connection, if any.

Method Detail

getId

java.lang.String getId()

Returns connection ID which is expected to be unique for the life span of the connection manager.

bind

void bind(java.net.Socket socket)
          throws java.io.IOException

Binds this connection to the given socket. The connection is considered open if it is bound and the underlying socket is connection to a remote host.

Parameters:

socket - the socket to bind the connection to.

Throws:

java.io.IOException

getSocket

java.net.Socket getSocket()

Returns the underlying socket.

getSSLSession

javax.net.ssl.SSLSession getSSLSession()

Obtains the SSL session of the underlying connection, if any. If this connection is open, and the underlying socket is an SSLSocket, the SSL session of that socket is obtained. This is a potentially blocking operation.

Returns:

the underlying SSL session if available, null otherwise
