Class SimpleSocketFactory

java.lang.Object
  com.infoengine.au.ssl.SimpleSocketFactory

All Implemented Interfaces:

SocketFactory

public class SimpleSocketFactory

extends Object

implements SocketFactory

This class implements a socket factory that produces simple SSL sockets using the default socket factory provided by the SSL reference implementation.

The behavior of the factory is controlled by the following properties. In each case, host.port corresponds to the host name and port number of the server socket to which the client socket will connect. Note also that it is possible to specify only host instead of host.port. In this case, the property applies to all ports on the specified host. If a property is defined using host.port, this overrides a property that specifies just host.

• com.infoengine.ssl.simpleSocket.host.port.protocol The name of the secure socket protocol to be used, usually TLS or SSL. If not defined, the behavior of the socket is determined entirely through connection handshaking.
• com.infoengine.ssl.simpleSocket.host.port.keyFile The pathname of a file containing the keys used by the TLS or SSL protocols. This property is required if a protocol is specified.
• com.infoengine.ssl.simpleSocket.host.port.algorithm Specifies the name of the security algorithm used by the key manager. If this property is not defined, the default is SunX509.
• com.infoengine.ssl.simpleSocket.host.port.keyStoreType Specifies the type of the keystore. If this property is not defined, the default is JKS.
• com.infoengine.ssl.simpleSocket.host.port.password Specifies the password used in verifying and loading the keystore. If this property is not defined, the keystore is not verified by password.

Creates a socket that establishes a secure network connection to a named service.

Specified by:

createSocket in interface SocketFactory

Parameters:

service - The name of the remote Info*Engine service to which the socket will be connected.

host - The name of the host on which the service instance resides.

port - The port number on which the service instance listens for connection requests.

Returns:

The connected socket.

Throws:

IOEException - if the connection can not be established

UnknownHostException - if the host is not known

IOException
