Class SocketImpl

java.lang.Object
  extended byjava.net.SocketImpl
All Implemented Interfaces:
SocketOptions

public abstract class SocketImpl
extends Object

The abstract class SocketImpl is a common superclass of all classes that actually implement sockets. It is used to create both client and server sockets.

A "plain" socket implements these methods exactly as described, without attempting to go through a firewall or proxy.

Since:
JDK1.0

public SocketImpl()
Method Detail

create

protected abstract void create(boolean stream)
                        throws IOException
Creates either a stream or a datagram socket.

Parameters:
stream - if true, create a stream socket; otherwise, create a datagram socket.
Throws:
IOException - if an I/O error occurs while creating the socket.

connect

protected abstract void connect(String host,
                                int port)
                         throws IOException
Connects this socket to the specified port on the named host.

Parameters:
host - the name of the remote host.
port - the port number.
Throws:
IOException - if an I/O error occurs when connecting to the remote host.

connect

protected abstract void connect(InetAddress address,
                                int port)
                         throws IOException
Connects this socket to the specified port number on the specified host.

Parameters:
address - the IP address of the remote host.
port - the port number.
Throws:
IOException - if an I/O error occurs when attempting a connection.

connect

protected abstract void connect(SocketAddress address,
                                int timeout)
                         throws IOException
Connects this socket to the specified port number on the specified host. A timeout of zero is interpreted as an infinite timeout. The connection will then block until established or an error occurs.

Parameters:
address - the Socket address of the remote host.
timeout - the timeout value, in milliseconds, or zero for no timeout.
Throws:
IOException - if an I/O error occurs when attempting a connection.
Since:
1.4

bind

protected abstract void bind(InetAddress host,
                             int port)
                      throws IOException
Binds this socket to the specified port number on the specified host.

Parameters:
host - the IP address of the remote host.
port - the port number.
Throws:
IOException - if an I/O error occurs when binding this socket.

listen

protected abstract void listen(int backlog)
                        throws IOException
Sets the maximum queue length for incoming connection indications (a request to connect) to the count argument. If a connection indication arrives when the queue is full, the connection is refused.

Parameters:
backlog - the maximum length of the queue.
Throws:
IOException - if an I/O error occurs when creating the queue.

accept

protected abstract void accept(SocketImpl s)
                        throws IOException
Accepts a connection.

Parameters:
s - the accepted connection.
Throws:

protected abstract InputStream getInputStream()
                                       throws IOException
Returns an input stream for this socket.

Returns:
a stream for reading from this socket.
Throws:
IOException - if an I/O error occurs when creating the input stream.

getOutputStream

protected abstract OutputStream getOutputStream()
                                         throws IOException
Returns an output stream for this socket.

Returns the number of bytes that can be read from this socket without blocking.

Returns:
the number of bytes that can be read from this socket without blocking.

shutdownInput

protected void shutdownInput()
                      throws IOException
Places the input stream for this socket at "end of stream". Any data sent to this socket is acknowledged and then silently discarded. If you read from a socket input stream after invoking shutdownInput() on the socket, the stream will return EOF.

Throws:
IOException - if an I/O error occurs when shutting down this socket.
See Also:
Socket.shutdownOutput(), Socket.close(), Socket.setSoLinger(boolean, int)

shutdownOutput

protected void shutdownOutput()
                       throws IOException
Disables the output stream for this socket. For a TCP socket, any previously written data will be sent followed by TCP's normal connection termination sequence. If you write to a socket output stream after invoking shutdownOutput() on the socket, the stream will throw an IOException.

Throws:
IOException - if an I/O error occurs when shutting down this socket.

Returns:
the value of this socket's address field.
See Also:
address

getPort

protected int getPort()
Returns the value of this socket's port field.

Returns:
the value of this socket's port field.
See Also:
port

supportsUrgentData

protected boolean supportsUrgentData()
Returns whether or not this SocketImpl supports sending urgent data. By default, false is returned unless the method is overridden in a sub-class

Returns:
true if urgent data supported
Since:
1.4

IOException - if there is an error sending the data.
Since:
1.4

getLocalPort

Returns the value of this socket's localport field.

Returns:
the value of this socket's localport field.
See Also:
