All Superinterfaces:
AutoCloseable, Closeable, Connector, Container, Graceful, LifeCycle
All Known Implementing Classes:
AbstractNetworkConnector, HTTP3ServerConnector, NetworkTrafficServerConnector, QuicServerConnector, ServerConnector

public interface NetworkConnector extends Connector, Closeable

A Connector for TCP/IP network connectors

  • Method Details

    • open

      void open() throws IOException

      Performs the activities needed to open the network communication (for example, to start accepting incoming network connections).

      Throws:
      IOException - if this connector cannot be opened
      See Also:
    • close

      void close()

      Performs the activities needed to close the network communication (for example, to stop accepting network connections).

      Once a connector has been closed, it cannot be opened again without first calling LifeCycle.stop() and it will not be active again until a subsequent call to LifeCycle.start()
      Specified by:
      close in interface AutoCloseable
      Specified by:
      close in interface Closeable
    • isOpen

      boolean isOpen()
      A Connector may be opened and not started (to reserve a port) or closed and running (to allow graceful shutdown of existing connections)
      Returns:
      True if the connector is Open.
    • getHost

      String getHost()
      Returns:
      The hostname representing the interface to which this connector will bind, or null for all interfaces.
    • getPort

      int getPort()
      Returns:
      The configured port for the connector or 0 if any available port may be used.
    • getLocalPort

      int getLocalPort()
      Returns:
      The actual port the connector is listening on, or -1 if it has not been opened, or -2 if it has been closed.
