Detailed Description

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.


Constructor & Destructor Documentation

Socket (  )  [protected]

Creates an unconnected socket.

Socket ( InetAddress  address,
int  port 
)

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

Socket ( InetAddress  address,
int  port,
InetAddress  localAddr,
int  localPort 
)

Creates a socket and connects it to the specified remote address on the specified remote port.

Socket ( SocketImplPtr  impl  )  [protected]

Creates an unconnected Socket with a user-specified SocketImpl.

Socket ( const String &  host,
int  port 
)

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

Socket ( const String &  host,
int  port,
InetAddress  localAddr,
int  localPort 
)

Creates a socket and connects it to the specified remote host on the specified remote port.
