javax.net
Class SocketFactory

java.lang.Object
  extended by javax.net.SocketFactory
Direct Known Subclasses:
SSLSocketFactory

public abstract class SocketFactory
extends Object

This class creates sockets. It may be subclassed by other factories, which create particular subclasses of sockets and thus provide a general framework for the addition of public socket-level functionality.

Socket factories are a simple way to capture a variety of policies related to the sockets being constructed, producing such sockets in a way which does not require special configuration of the code which asks for the sockets:

Factory classes are specified by environment-specific configuration mechanisms. For example, the getDefault method could return a factory that was appropriate for a particular user or applet, and a framework could use a factory customized to its own purposes.

getDefault

public static SocketFactory getDefault()
Returns a copy of the environment's default socket factory.

Returns:
the default SocketFactory

createSocket

public Socket createSocket()
                    throws IOException
Creates an unconnected socket.

Returns:
the unconnected socket

createSocket

public abstract Socket createSocket(String host,
                                    int port)
                             throws IOException,
                                    UnknownHostException
Creates a socket and connects it to the specified remote host at the specified remote port. This socket is configured using the socket options established for this factory.

Parameters:
host - the server host
port - the server port
Returns:
the Socket
Throws:
IOException - if an I/O error occurs when creating the socket
UnknownHostException - if the host is not known
