Class java.net.Socket

java.lang.Object
   |
   +----java.net.Socket

public class Socket
extends Object

This class implements client sockets (also called just "sockets"). A socket is an endpoint for communication between two machines.

The actual work of the socket is performed by an instance of the SocketImpl class. An application, by changing the socket factory that creates the socket implementation, can configure itself to create sockets appropriate to the local firewall.

Socket

 protected Socket()

Creates an unconnected socket, with the system-default type of SocketImpl.

Socket

 protected Socket(SocketImpl impl) throws SocketException

Creates an unconnected Socket with a user-specified SocketImpl.

The impl parameter is an instance of a SocketImpl the subclass wishes to use on the Socket.

Socket

 public Socket(String host,
               int port) throws UnknownHostException, IOException

Creates a stream socket and connects it to the specified port number on the named host.

If the application has specified a server socket factory, that factory's createSocketImpl method is called to create the actual socket implementation. Otherwise a "plain" socket is created.

Parameters:: host - the host name.; port - the port number.
Throws: IOException: if an I/O error occurs when creating the socket.
See Also:: setSocketImplFactory, SocketImpl, createSocketImpl

Socket

 public Socket(InetAddress address,
               int port) throws IOException

Creates a stream socket and connects it to the specified port number at the specified IP address.

If the application has specified a socket factory, that factory's createSocketImpl method is called to create the actual socket implementation. Otherwise a "plain" socket is created.

Parameters:: address - the IP address.; port - the port number.
Throws: IOException: if an I/O error occurs when creating the socket.
See Also:: setSocketImplFactory, SocketImpl, createSocketImpl

Socket

 public Socket(String host,
               int port,
               InetAddress localAddr,
               int localPort) throws IOException

Creates a socket and connects it to the specified remote host on the specified remote port. The Socket will also bind() to the local address and port supplied.

Parameters:: host - the name of the remote host; port - the remote port; localAddr - the local address the socket is bound to; localPort - the local port the socket is bound to

Socket

 public Socket(InetAddress address,
               int port,
               InetAddress localAddr,
               int localPort) throws IOException

Creates a socket and connects it to the specified remote address on the specified remote port. The Socket will also bind() to the local address and port supplied.

Parameters:: address - the remote address; port - the remote port; localAddr - the local address the socket is bound to; localPort - the local port the socket is bound to

Socket

 public Socket(String host,
               int port,
               boolean stream) throws IOException

Note: Socket() is deprecated. Use DatagramSocket instead for UDP transport.

Creates a stream socket and connects it to the specified port number on the named host.

If the stream argument is true, this creates a stream socket. If the stream argument is false, it creates a datagram socket.

If the application has specified a server socket factory, that factory's createSocketImpl method is called to create the actual socket implementation. Otherwise a "plain" socket is created.

Parameters:: host - the host name.; port - the port number.; stream - a boolean indicating whether this is a stream socket or a datagram socket.
Throws: IOException: if an I/O error occurs when creating the socket.
See Also:: setSocketImplFactory, SocketImpl, createSocketImpl

Socket

 public Socket(InetAddress host,
               int port,
               boolean stream) throws IOException

Note: Socket() is deprecated. Use DatagramSocket instead for UDP transport.

Creates a socket and connects it to the specified port number at the specified IP address.

If the stream argument is true, this creates a stream socket. If the stream argument is false, it creates a datagram socket.

If the application has specified a server socket factory, that factory's createSocketImpl method is called to create the actual socket implementation. Otherwise a "plain" socket is created.

Parameters:: address - the IP address.; port - the port number.; stream - if true, create a stream socket; otherwise, create a datagram socket.
Throws: IOException: if an I/O error occurs when creating the socket.
See Also:: setSocketImplFactory, SocketImpl, createSocketImpl

getInetAddress

 public InetAddress getInetAddress()

Returns the address to which the socket is connected.

Returns:: the remote IP address to which this socket is connected.

getLocalAddress

 public InetAddress getLocalAddress()

Gets the local address to which the socket is bound.

getPort

 public int getPort()

Returns the remote port to which this socket is connected.

Returns:: the remote port number to which this socket is connected.

getLocalPort

 public int getLocalPort()

Returns the local port to which this socket is bound.

Returns:: the local port number to which this socket is connected.

getInputStream

 public InputStream getInputStream() throws IOException

Returns an input stream for this socket.

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

getOutputStream

 public OutputStream getOutputStream() throws IOException

Returns an output stream for this socket.

Returns:: an output stream for writing bytes to this socket.
Throws: IOException: if an I/O error occurs when creating the output stream.

setTcpNoDelay

 public void setTcpNoDelay(boolean on) throws SocketException

Enable/disable TCP_NODELAY (disable/enable Nagle's algorithm).

getTcpNoDelay

 public boolean getTcpNoDelay() throws SocketException

Tests if TCP_NODELAY is enabled.

setSoLinger

 public void setSoLinger(boolean on,
                         int val) throws SocketException

Enable/disable SO_LINGER with the specified linger time.

getSoLinger

 public int getSoLinger() throws SocketException

Returns setting for SO_LINGER. -1 returns implies that the option is disabled.

setSoTimeout

 public synchronized void setSoTimeout(int timeout) throws SocketException

Enable/disable SO_TIMEOUT with the specified timeout, in milliseconds. With this option set to a non-zero timeout, a read() call on the InputStream associated with this Socket will block for only this amount of time. If the timeout expires, a java.io.InterruptedIOException is raised, though the Socket is still valid. The option must be enabled prior to entering the blocking operation to have effect. The timeout must be > 0. A timeout of zero is interpreted as an infinite timeout.

getSoTimeout

 public synchronized int getSoTimeout() throws SocketException

Returns setting for SO_TIMEOUT. 0 returns implies that the option is disabled (i.e., timeout of infinity).

close

 public synchronized void close() throws IOException

Closes this socket.

Throws: IOException: if an I/O error occurs when closing this socket.

toString

 public String toString()

Converts this socket to a String.

Returns:: a string representation of this socket.
Overrides:: toString in class Object

setSocketImplFactory

 public static synchronized void setSocketImplFactory(SocketImplFactory fac) throws IOException

Sets the client socket implementation factory for the application. The factory can be specified only once.

When an application creates a new client socket, the socket implementation factory's createSocketImpl method is called to create the actual socket implementation.

Parameters:: fac - the desired factory.
Throws: IOException: if an I/O error occurs when setting the socket factory.
Throws: SocketException: if the factory is already defined.
See Also:: createSocketImpl
