  • Method Details

    • createSocket

      Socket createSocket(org.apache.http.protocol.HttpContext context) throws IOException
      Creates new, unconnected socket. The socket should subsequently be passed to connectSocket method.
      Returns:
      a new socket
      Throws:
      IOException - if an I/O error occurs while creating the socket
    • connectSocket

      Socket connectSocket(int connectTimeout, Socket sock, org.apache.http.HttpHost host, InetSocketAddress remoteAddress, InetSocketAddress localAddress, org.apache.http.protocol.HttpContext context) throws IOException
      Connects the socket to the target host with the given resolved remote address.
      Parameters:
      connectTimeout - connect timeout.
      sock - the socket to connect, as obtained from createSocket(HttpContext). null indicates that a new socket should be created and connected.
      host - target host as specified by the caller (end user).
      remoteAddress - the resolved remote address to connect to.
      localAddress - the local address to bind the socket to, or null for any.
      context - the actual HTTP context.
      Returns:
      the connected socket. The returned object may be different from the sock argument if this factory supports a layered protocol.
