Class SocketFactory
public abstract class SocketFactory
extends java.lang.Object
A factory for client sockets. The purpose of this class is to serve
as the superclass of server socket factories that produce client
sockets of a particular type, such as Secure Socket Layer
(SSL) sockets.

Socket | createSocket() - Returns an unbound client socket.
|
abstract Socket | createSocket(InetAddress host, int port) - Creates a socket connected to a given host on a given port.
|
abstract Socket | createSocket(InetAddress hast, int port, InetAddress localHost, int localPort) - Creates a socket connected to a given host on a given port,
connecting locally to the interface with the given address and port.
|
abstract Socket | createSocket(String host, int port) - Creates a socket connected to a given host on a given port.
|
abstract Socket | createSocket(String host, int port, InetAddress localHost, int localPort) - Creates a socket connected to a given host on a given port,
connecting locally to the interface with the given address and port.
