## org.apache.tomcat.util.net
Class ServerSocketFactory

    java.lang.Object
      org.apache.tomcat.util.net.ServerSocketFactory

All Implemented Interfaces:
  java.lang.Cloneable

Direct Known Subclasses:
  JSSESocketFactory

    public abstract class ServerSocketFactory

extends java.lang.Object
implements java.lang.Cloneable

This class creates server sockets. It may be subclassed by other factories, which create particular types of server sockets. This provides a general framework for the addition of public socket-level functionality. It it is the server side analogue of a socket factory, and similarly provides a way to capture a variety of policies related to the sockets being constructed.

Like socket factories, Server Socket factory instances have two categories of methods. First are methods used to create sockets. Second are methods which set properties used in the production of sockets, such as networking options. There is also an environment specific default server socket factory; frameworks will often use their own customized factory.

It may be desirable to move this interface into the java.net package, so that is not an extension but the preferred interface. Should this be serializable, making it a JavaBean which can be saved along with its networking configuration?

Field Summary
`protected java.util.Hashtable` | `attributes`

Constructor Summary
`protected` | `ServerSocketFactory()` Constructor is used only by subclasses.

Method Summary
`abstract java.net.Socket` | `acceptSocket(java.net.ServerSocket socket)` Wrapper function for accept().
`abstract java.net.ServerSocket` | `createSocket(int port)` Returns a server socket which uses all network interfaces on the host, and is bound to a the specified port.
`abstract java.net.ServerSocket` | `createSocket(int port, int backlog)` Returns a server socket which uses all network interfaces on the host, is bound to a the specified port, and uses the specified connection backlog.
`abstract java.net.ServerSocket` | `createSocket(int port, int backlog, java.net.InetAddress ifAddress)` Returns a server socket which uses only the specified network interface on the local host, is bound to a the specified port, and uses the specified connection backlog.
`static ServerSocketFactory` | `getDefault()` Returns a copy of the environment's default socket factory.
`abstract void` | `handshake(java.net.Socket sock)` Extra function to initiate the handshake.
`void` | `initSocket(java.net.Socket s)`
`void` | `setAttribute(java.lang.String name, java.lang.Object value)` General mechanism to pass attributes from the ServerConnector to the socket factory.

Field Detail

### attributes

    protected java.util.Hashtable attributes

Constructor Detail

### ServerSocketFactory

    protected ServerSocketFactory()

  Constructor is used only by subclasses.

Method Detail

### setAttribute

    public void setAttribute(java.lang.String name,
                             java.lang.Object value)

  General mechanism to pass attributes from the ServerConnector to the socket factory. Note that the "prefered" mechanism is to use bean setters and explicit methods, but this allows easy configuration via server.xml or simple Properties

### getDefault

    public static ServerSocketFactory getDefault()

  Returns a copy of the environment's default socket factory.

### createSocket

    public abstract java.net.ServerSocket createSocket(int port)
                                                throws java.io.IOException,
                                                       java.lang.InstantiationException

  Returns a server socket which uses all network interfaces on the host, and is bound to a the specified port. The socket is configured with the socket options (such as accept timeout) given to this factory.

  Parameters:
    `port` - the port to listen to
  Throws:
    `java.io.IOException` - for networking errors
    `java.lang.InstantiationException` - for construction errors

### createSocket

    public abstract java.net.ServerSocket createSocket(int port,
                                                       int backlog)
                                                throws java.io.IOException,
                                                       java.lang.InstantiationException

  Returns a server socket which uses all network interfaces on the host, is bound to a the specified port, and uses the specified connection backlog. The socket is configured with the socket options (such as accept timeout) given to this factory.

  Parameters:
    `port` - the port to listen to
    `backlog` - how many connections are queued
  Throws:
    `java.io.IOException` - for networking errors
    `java.lang.InstantiationException` - for construction errors

### createSocket

    public abstract java.net.ServerSocket createSocket(int port,
                                                       int backlog,
                                                       java.net.InetAddress ifAddress)
                                                throws java.io.IOException,
                                                       java.lang.InstantiationException

  Returns a server socket which uses only the specified network interface on the local host, is bound to a the specified port, and uses the specified connection backlog. The socket is configured with the socket options (such as accept timeout) given to this factory.

  Parameters:
    `port` - the port to listen to
    `backlog` - how many connections are queued
    `ifAddress` - the network interface address to use
  Throws:
    `java.io.IOException` - for networking errors
    `java.lang.InstantiationException` - for construction errors

### initSocket

    public void initSocket(java.net.Socket s)

### acceptSocket

    public abstract java.net.Socket acceptSocket(java.net.ServerSocket socket)
                                          throws java.io.IOException

  Wrapper function for accept(). This allows us to trap and translate exceptions if necessary

  Throws:
    `IOException;`
    `java.io.IOException`

### handshake

    public abstract void handshake(java.net.Socket sock)
                            throws java.io.IOException

  Extra function to initiate the handshake. Sometimes necessary for SSL

  Throws:
    `IOException;`
    `java.io.IOException`
