| org.apache.http.conn.scheme.SocketFactory |
 Known Indirect Subclasses
|
A factory for creating and connecting sockets. The factory encapsulates the logic for establishing a socket connection.
Both Object.equals() and Object.hashCode() must be overridden for the correct operation of some connection managers.

Connects a socket to the given host.
| sock | the socket to connect, as obtained from createSocket. null indicates that a new socket should be created and connected. |
|---|---|
| host | the host to connect to |
| port | the port to connect to on the host |
| localAddress | the local address to bind the socket to, or null for any |
| localPort | the port on the local machine, 0 or a negative number for any |
| params | additional parameters for connecting |
sock argument if this factory supports a layered protocol.| IOException | if an I/O error occurs |
|---|---|
| UnknownHostException | if the IP address of the target host can not be determined |
| ConnectTimeoutException | if the socket cannot be connected within the time limit defined in the params |
Creates a new, unconnected socket. The socket should subsequently be passed to connectSocket.
| IOException | if an I/O error occurs while creating the socket |

Checks whether a socket provides a secure connection. The socket must be connected by this factory. The factory will not perform I/O operations in this method.
As a rule of thumb, plain sockets are not secure and TLS/SSL sockets are secure. However, there may be application specific deviations. For example, a plain socket to a host in the same intranet ("trusted zone") could be considered secure. On the other hand, a TLS/SSL socket could be considered insecure based on the cypher suite chosen for the connection.
| sock | the connected socket to check |
|---|
true if the connection of the socket should be considered secure, or false if it should not| IllegalArgumentException | if the argument is invalid, for example because it is not a connected socket or was created by a different socket factory. Note that socket factories are not required to check these conditions, they may simply return a default value when called with an invalid socket argument. |
