ServerSocket | public class ServerSocket (Code) | | This class implements server sockets. A server socket waits for
requests to come in over the network. It performs some operation
based on that request, and then possibly returns a result to the requester.
The actual work of the server socket is performed by an instance
of the SocketImpl class. An application can
change the socket factory that creates the socket
implementation to configure itself to create sockets
appropriate to the local firewall.

When a TCP connection is closed the connection may remain
in a timeout state for a period of time after the connection
is closed (typically known as the TIME_WAIT state
or 2MSL wait state).
For applications using a well known socket address or port
it may not be possible to bind a socket to the required
SocketAddress if there is a connection in the
timeout state involving the socket address or port. | public synchronized void | setSoTimeout(int timeout) Enable/disable SO_TIMEOUT with the specified timeout, in
milliseconds. | public static synchronized void | setSocketFactory(SocketImplFactory fac) Sets the server socket implementation factory for the
application. | public String | toString() Returns the implementation address and implementation port of
this socket as a String . |
ServerSocket | public ServerSocket() throws IOException(Code) | | Creates an unbound server socket.
exception: IOException - IO error when opening the socket. |
ServerSocket | public ServerSocket(int port) throws IOException(Code) | | Creates a server socket, bound to the specified port. A port of
0 creates a socket on any free port.
The maximum queue length for incoming connection indications (a
request to connect) is set to 50 . If a connection
indication arrives when the queue is full, the connection is refused.
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.
If there is a security manager,
its checkListen method is called
with the port argument
as its argument to ensure the operation is allowed.
This could result in a SecurityException.
Parameters: port - the port number, or 0 to use anyfree port. exception: IOException - if an I/O error occurs when opening the socket. exception: SecurityException - if a security manager exists and its checkListen method doesn't allow the operation.

ServerSocket | public ServerSocket(int port, int backlog) throws IOException(Code) | | Creates a server socket and binds it to the specified local port
number, with the specified backlog.
A port number of 0 creates a socket on any
free port.
The maximum queue length for incoming connection indications (a
request to connect) is set to the backlog parameter. If
a connection indication arrives when the queue is full, the
connection is refused.
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.
If there is a security manager,
its checkListen method is called
with the port argument
as its argument to ensure the operation is allowed.
This could result in a SecurityException.
The backlog argument must be a positive
value greater than 0. If the value passed if equal or less
than 0, then the default value will be assumed.

ServerSocket | public ServerSocket(int port, int backlog, InetAddress bindAddr) throws IOException(Code) | | Create a server with the specified port, listen backlog, and
local IP address to bind to. The bindAddr argument
can be used on a multi-homed host for a ServerSocket that
will only accept connect requests to one of its addresses.
If bindAddr is null, it will default accepting
connections on any/all local addresses.
The port must be between 0 and 65535, inclusive.
If there is a security manager, this method
calls its checkListen method
with the port argument

value greater than 0. If the value passed if equal or less
than 0, then the default value will be assumed.
Parameters: port - the local TCP port Parameters: backlog - the listen backlog Parameters: bindAddr - the local InetAddress the server will bind to throws: SecurityException - if a security manager exists and its checkListen method doesn't allow the operation. throws: IOException - if an I/O error occurs when opening the socket. See Also: SocketOptions See Also: SocketImpl See Also: SecurityManager.checkListen since: JDK1.1 |
accept | public Socket accept() throws IOException(Code) | | Listens for a connection to be made to this socket and accepts
it. The method blocks until a connection is made.
A new Socket s is created and, if there
is a security manager,
the security manager's checkAccept method is called
with s.getInetAddress().getHostAddress() and
s.getPort()
as its arguments to ensure the operation is allowed.
This could result in a SecurityException.

the port number to which this socket is listening or-1 if the socket is not bound yet. |
getReceiveBufferSize | public synchronized int getReceiveBufferSize() throws SocketException(Code) | | Gets the value of the SO_RCVBUF option for this ServerSocket,
that is the proposed buffer size that will be used for Sockets accepted
from this ServerSocket.
Note, the value actually set in the accepted socket is determined by
calling
Socket.getReceiveBufferSize .
the value of the SO_RCVBUF option for this Socket. exception: SocketException - if there is an errorin the underlying protocol, such as a TCP error. See Also: ServerSocket.setReceiveBufferSize(int) since: 1.4 |
getSoTimeout | public synchronized int getSoTimeout() throws IOException(Code) | | Retrive setting for SO_TIMEOUT. 0 returns implies that the
option is disabled (i.e., timeout of infinity).
the SO_TIMEOUT value exception: IOException - if an I/O error occurs since: JDK1.1 See Also: ServerSocket.setSoTimeout(int) |
implAccept | final protected void implAccept(Socket s) throws IOException(Code) | | Subclasses of ServerSocket use this method to override accept()
to return their own subclass of socket. So a FooServerSocket
will typically hand this method an empty FooSocket. On
return from implAccept the FooSocket will be connected to a client.
Parameters: s - the Socket throws: IOException - if an I/O error occurs when waiting for a connection. since: JDK1.1 |
isBound | public boolean isBound()(Code) | | Returns the binding state of the ServerSocket.
true if the ServerSocket succesfuly bound to an address since: 1.4 |
isClosed | public boolean isClosed()(Code) | | Returns the closed state of the ServerSocket.
true if the socket has been closed since: 1.4 |
setBound | void setBound()(Code) | | |
setCreated | void setCreated()(Code) | | |
setReceiveBufferSize | public synchronized void setReceiveBufferSize(int size) throws SocketException(Code) | | Sets a default proposed value for the SO_RCVBUF option for sockets
accepted from this ServerSocket. The value actually set
in the accepted socket must be determined by calling
Socket.getReceiveBufferSize after the socket
is returned by
ServerSocket.accept() .
The value of SO_RCVBUF is used both to set the size of the internal
socket receive buffer, and to set the size of the TCP receive window
that is advertized to the remote peer.
It is possible to change the value subsequently, by calling
Socket.setReceiveBufferSize(int) . However, if the application
wishes to allow a receive window larger than 64K bytes, as defined by RFC1323
then the proposed value must be set in the ServerSocket before
it is bound to a local address. This implies, that the ServerSocket must be
created with the no-argument constructor, then setReceiveBufferSize() must
be called and lastly the ServerSocket is bound to an address by calling bind().
Failure to do this will not cause an error, and the buffer size may be set to the
requested value but the TCP receive window in sockets accepted from
this ServerSocket will be no larger than 64K bytes.
exception: SocketException - if there is an errorin the underlying protocol, such as a TCP error. Parameters: size - the size to which to set the receive buffersize. This value must be greater than 0. exception: IllegalArgumentException - if the value is 0 or is negative. since: 1.4 See Also: ServerSocket.getReceiveBufferSize |
setReuseAddress | public void setReuseAddress(boolean on) throws SocketException(Code) | | Enable/disable the SO_REUSEADDR socket option.
When a TCP connection is closed the connection may remain
in a timeout state for a period of time after the connection
is closed (typically known as the TIME_WAIT state
or 2MSL wait state).
For applications using a well known socket address or port
it may not be possible to bind a socket to the required
SocketAddress if there is a connection in the
timeout state involving the socket address or port.
Enabling SO_REUSEADDR prior to binding the socket
using
ServerSocket.bind(SocketAddress) allows the socket to be
bound even though a previous connection is in a timeout
state.
When a ServerSocket is created the initial setting
of SO_REUSEADDR is not defined. Applications can
use
getReuseAddress() to determine the initial
setting of SO_REUSEADDR.
The behaviour when SO_REUSEADDR is enabled or
disabled after a socket is bound (See
ServerSocket.isBound() )
is not defined.
Parameters: on - whether to enable or disable the socket option exception: SocketException - if an error occurs enabling ordisabling the SO_RESUEADDR socket option,or the socket is closed. since: 1.4 See Also: ServerSocket.getReuseAddress() See Also: See Also: ServerSocket.bind(SocketAddress) See Also: ServerSocket.isBound() See Also: ServerSocket.isClosed() |
setSoTimeout | public synchronized void setSoTimeout(int timeout) throws SocketException(Code) | | Enable/disable SO_TIMEOUT with the specified timeout, in
milliseconds. With this option set to a non-zero timeout,
a call to accept() for this ServerSocket
will block for only this amount of time. If the timeout expires,
a java.net.SocketTimeoutException is raised, though the
ServerSocket 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.
Parameters: timeout - the specified timeout, in milliseconds exception: SocketException - if there is an error in the underlying protocol, such as a TCP error. since: JDK1.1 See Also: ServerSocket.getSoTimeout() |
setSocketFactory | public static synchronized void setSocketFactory(SocketImplFactory fac) throws IOException(Code) | | Sets the server socket implementation factory for the
application. The factory can be specified only once.
When an application creates a new server socket, the socket
implementation factory's createSocketImpl method is
called to create the actual socket implementation.
If there is a security manager, this method first calls
the security manager's checkSetFactory method
to ensure the operation is allowed.
This could result in a SecurityException.
Parameters: fac - the desired factory. exception: IOException - if an I/O error occurs when setting thesocket factory. exception: SocketException - if the factory has already been defined. exception: SecurityException - if a security manager exists and its checkSetFactory method doesn't allow the operation. See Also: java.net.SocketImplFactory.createSocketImpl See Also: SecurityManager.checkSetFactory |
toString | public String toString()(Code) | | Returns the implementation address and implementation port of
this socket as a String .
a string representation of this socket. |
