Constructor Detail

HTTPConnectionFactory

private HTTPConnectionFactory()

This creates a new instance of HTTPConnectionFactory. This is only used for setting some values. Use HTTPConnectionFactory.getInstance() for getting an instance of this class.

Method Detail

getInstance

public static HTTPConnectionFactory getInstance()

Returns the instance of HTTPConnectionFactory (Singleton). If there is no instance, there is a new one created.

Returns:

The HTTPConnectionFactory instance.

setNewProxySettings

public void setNewProxySettings(ImmutableProxyInterface a_proxyInterface,
                                boolean a_bUseAuth)

This method sets new settings for the proxy server. All HTTPConnection instances created after the call of this method will use them. Instances of HTTPConnection which already exist are not influenced by that call. The default after creating the instance of HTTPConnectionFactory is to use no proxy for all new instances of HTTPConnection.

Parameters:

a_proxyInterface - the listener interface of the proxy server; if it is set to null, no proxy is used

a_bUseAuth - indicates whether proxy authentication should be used

setTimeout

public void setTimeout(int a_timeout)

Sets the communication timeout (sec) for new HTTP connections. If this value is zero or lower, a connection never times out. Instances of HTTPConnection which already exist, are not influenced by this method.

Parameters:

a_timeout - The new communication timeout.

getTimeout

public int getTimeout()

Returns the communication timeout (sec) for new HTTP connections. If this value is zero, a connection never times out.

Returns:

The communication timeout for new connections.

createHTTPConnection

public HTTPClient.HTTPConnection createHTTPConnection(ListenerInterface target)

This method creates a new instance of HTTPConnection. The current proxy settings are used.

Parameters:

target - The ListenerInterface of the connection target.

Returns:

A new instance of HTTPConnection with a connection to the specified target and the current proxy settings.

createHTTPConnection

public HTTPClient.HTTPConnection createHTTPConnection(ListenerInterface target,
                                                      int a_encoding,
                                                      boolean a_bGet)

This method creates a new instance of HTTPConnection. The current proxy settings are used.

Parameters:

target - The ListenerInterface of the connection target.

a_encoding - http encoding used to send the data (e.g. HTTP_ENCODING_ZLIB)

a_bGet - if encoding is set to another value than HTTP_ENCODING_PLAIN, it must be specified if this is a get or a post statement

Returns:

A new instance of HTTPConnection with a connection to the specified target and the current proxy settings.

createHTTPConnection

public HTTPClient.HTTPConnection createHTTPConnection(ListenerInterface target,
                                                      int a_encoding,
                                                      boolean a_bGet,
                                                      java.util.Vector a_vecNVPairHeaderReplacements)

This method creates a new instance of HTTPConnection using the specified proxy settings (ignoring the default settings).

Parameters:

target - The ListenerInterface of the connection target.

a_proxySettings - The proxy settings to use for this single connection. If the proxy settings are null, no proxy is used.

Returns:

A new instance of HTTPConnection with a connection to the specified target and the current proxy settings.
