Class SocketConnection

java.lang.Object

org.simpleframework.transport.connect.SocketConnection

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Closeable, java.lang.AutoCloseable, Connection

public class SocketConnection
extends java.lang.Object
implements Connection

The SocketConnectionis used to manage connections from a server socket. In order to achieve this it spawns a task to listen for incoming connect requests. When a TCP connection request arrives it hands off the SocketChannel to the Server which processes the request.

This handles connections from a ServerSocketChannel object so that features such as SSL can be used by a server that uses this package. The background acceptor process will terminate if the connection is closed.

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
void	close() This is used to close the connection and the server socket used to accept connections.
java.net.SocketAddress	connect(java.net.SocketAddress address) This creates a new background task that will listen to the specified ServerAddress for incoming TCP connect requests.

Constructor Detail

SocketConnection

public SocketConnection(Server server)
                 throws java.io.IOException

Constructor for the SocketConnection object. This will create a new connection that accepts incoming connections and hands these connections as Pipeline objects to the specified processor. This in turn will deliver request and response objects to the internal container.

Parameters:

server - this is the processor that receives requests

Throws:

java.io.IOException

SocketConnection

public SocketConnection(Container container)
                 throws java.io.IOException

Constructor for the SocketConnection object. This will create a new connection that accepts incoming connections and hands these connections as Pipeline objects to the specified processor. This in turn will deliver request and response objects to the internal container.

Parameters:

container - this is the container that receives requests

Throws:

java.io.IOException

Method Detail

connect

public java.net.SocketAddress connect(java.net.SocketAddress address)
                               throws java.io.IOException

This creates a new background task that will listen to the specified ServerAddress for incoming TCP connect requests. When an connection is accepted it is handed to the internal Server implementation as a pipeline. The background task is a non daemon task to ensure the server is kept active, to terminate the connection this can be closed.

Specified by:

connect in interface Connection

Parameters:

address - this is the address used to accept connections

Returns:

this returns the actual local address that is used

Throws:

java.io.IOException

connect

public java.net.SocketAddress connect(java.net.SocketAddress address,
                             javax.net.ssl.SSLContext context)
                               throws java.io.IOException

This creates a new background task that will listen to the specified ServerAddress for incoming TCP connect requests. When an connection is accepted it is handed to the internal Server implementation as a pipeline. The background task is a non daemon task to ensure the server is kept active, to terminate the connection this can be closed.

Specified by:

connect in interface Connection

Parameters:

address - this is the address used to accept connections

context - this is used for secure SSL connections

Returns:

this returns the actual local address that is used

Throws:

java.io.IOException

close

public void close()
           throws java.io.IOException

This is used to close the connection and the server socket used to accept connections. This will perform a close of all connected server sockets that have been created from using the connect method. The connection can be reused after the existing server sockets have been closed.

Specified by:

close in interface java.io.Closeable

Specified by:

close in interface java.lang.AutoCloseable

Throws:

java.io.IOException - thrown if there is a problem closing
