Interface ServerSocketFactory

All Known Implementing Classes:
DefaultServerSocketFactory, SSLServerSocketFactory

public interface ServerSocketFactory

Interface that describes the common characteristics of factory classes that create server sockets required by a Connector. A concreate implementation of this interface will be assigned to a Connector via the setFactory() method.

Method Summary
 java.net.ServerSocket createSocket(int port)
          Returns a server socket which uses all network interfaces on the host, and is bound to a the specified port.
 java.net.ServerSocket createSocket(int port, int backlog)
          Returns a server socket which uses all network interfaces on the host, is bound to a the specified port, and uses the specified connection backlog.
 java.net.ServerSocket createSocket(int port, int backlog, java.net.InetAddress ifAddress)
          Returns a server socket which uses only the specified network interface on the local host, is bound to a the specified port, and uses the specified connection backlog.
 

Method Detail

createSocket

public java.net.ServerSocket createSocket(int port)
                                   throws java.io.IOException
Returns a server socket which uses all network interfaces on the host, and is bound to a the specified port. The socket is configured with the socket options (such as accept timeout) given to this factory.

Parameters:
port - the port to listen to
Throws:
java.io.IOException - for networking errors

createSocket

public java.net.ServerSocket createSocket(int port,
                                          int backlog)
                                   throws java.io.IOException
Returns a server socket which uses all network interfaces on the host, is bound to a the specified port, and uses the specified connection backlog. The socket is configured with the socket options (such as accept timeout) given to this factory.

Parameters:
port - the port to listen to
backlog - how many connections are queued
Throws:
java.io.IOException - for networking errors

createSocket

public java.net.ServerSocket createSocket(int port,
                                          int backlog,
                                          java.net.InetAddress ifAddress)
                                   throws java.io.IOException
Returns a server socket which uses only the specified network interface on the local host, is bound to a the specified port, and uses the specified connection backlog. The socket is configured with the socket options (such as accept timeout) given to this factory.

Parameters:
port - the port to listen to
backlog - how many connections are queued
ifAddress - the network interface address to use
Throws:
java.io.IOException - for networking errors
