Method Details

create

public void create(int port,
 String bindAddr)
            throws IOException

Description copied from interface: ContextSocketFace

Creates the socket. This socket is used when listening for incoming requests or traps. Use only one (1) of the two create methods.

Specified by:

create in interface ContextSocketFace

Parameters:

port - The local port number were we receive (listen for) packets

bindAddr - The local address the server will bind to when listening

Throws:

IOException

See Also:

• ContextSocketFace.create(String, int, String)

create

public void create(String host,
 int port,
 String bindAddr)
            throws IOException

Description copied from interface: ContextSocketFace

Creates the socket. This socket is used to send out our requests. Use only one (1) of the two create methods.

Specified by:

create in interface ContextSocketFace

Parameters:

host - The name of the host that is to receive our packets

port - The port number of the host

bindAddr - The local address the server will bind to when sending packets

Throws:

IOException

See Also:

• ContextSocketFace.create(int, String)

getReceivedFromHostAddress

public String getReceivedFromHostAddress()

Description copied from interface: ContextSocketFace

Returns the IP address of the (latest) host of the packet we received. Only applicable when anything has been received. When sending a request, this will in most cases be the same host where we sent the original packet to.

Specified by:

getReceivedFromHostAddress in interface ContextSocketFace

Returns:

The IP address, or null when the hostname cannot be determined

See Also:

• ContextSocketFace.getSendToHostAddress()

getSendToHostAddress

public String getSendToHostAddress()

Description copied from interface: ContextSocketFace

Returns the IP address of the host we sent the packet to. Only applicable when sending requests, not when (only) listening for incoming requests or traps.

Specified by:

getSendToHostAddress in interface ContextSocketFace

Returns:

The IP address, or null when the hostname cannot be determined

See Also:

• ContextSocketFace.getReceivedFromHostAddress()

getLocalSocketAddress

public String getLocalSocketAddress()

Description copied from interface: ContextSocketFace

Returns the address of the endpoint this socket is bound to, or null if it is not bound yet.

Specified by:

getLocalSocketAddress in interface ContextSocketFace

getRemoteSocketAddress

public String getRemoteSocketAddress()

Description copied from interface: ContextSocketFace

Returns the address of the endpoint this socket is connected to, or null if it is unconnected.

Specified by:

getRemoteSocketAddress in interface ContextSocketFace

receive

public StreamPortItem receive(int maxRecvSize)
                       throws IOException

Description copied from interface: ContextSocketFace

Receives a packet from this socket. The StreamPortItem object contains the host and port the packet came from.

Specified by:

receive in interface ContextSocketFace

Parameters:

maxRecvSize - the maximum number of bytes to receive

Returns:

the packet

Throws:

IOException

send

public void send(byte[] packet)
          throws IOException

Description copied from interface: ContextSocketFace

Sends a packet from this socket. It can throw an "java.io.IOException: Invalid argument" when the bind address is incorrect for some reason.

Specified by:

send in interface ContextSocketFace

Parameters:

packet - the packet

Throws:

IOException

close

public void close()

Description copied from interface: ContextSocketFace

Closes this socket.

Specified by:

close in interface ContextSocketFace
