Methods Summary |
---|
public org.apache.http.conn.routing.HttpRoute | getRoute()Obtains the current route of this connection.
|
public javax.net.ssl.SSLSession | getSSLSession()Obtains the SSL session of the underlying connection, if any.
If this connection is open, and the underlying socket is an
{@link javax.net.ssl.SSLSocket SSLSocket}, the SSL session of
that socket is obtained. This is a potentially blocking operation.
Note: Whether the underlying socket is an SSL socket
can not necessarily be determined via {@link #isSecure}.
Plain sockets may be considered secure, for example if they are
connected to a known host in the same network segment.
On the other hand, SSL sockets may be considered insecure,
for example depending on the chosen cipher suite.
|
public java.lang.Object | getState()Returns the state object associated with this connection.
|
public boolean | isMarkedReusable()Indicates whether this connection is in a reusable communication state.
See {@link #markReusable markReusable} and
{@link #unmarkReusable unmarkReusable} for details.
|
public boolean | isSecure()Indicates whether this connection is secure.
The return value is well-defined only while the connection is open.
It may change even while the connection is open.
|
public void | layerProtocol(org.apache.http.protocol.HttpContext context, org.apache.http.params.HttpParams params)Layers a new protocol on top of a {@link #tunnelTarget tunnelled}
connection. This is typically used to create a TLS/SSL connection
through a proxy.
The route is the one previously passed to {@link #open open}.
It is not guaranteed that the layered connection is
{@link #isSecure secure}.
|
public void | markReusable()Marks this connection as being in a reusable communication state.
The checkpoints for reuseable communication states (in the absence
of pipelining) are before sending a request and after receiving
the response in it's entirety.
The connection will automatically clear the checkpoint when
used for communication. A call to this method indicates that
the next checkpoint has been reached.
A reusable communication state is necessary but not sufficient
for the connection to be reused.
A {@link #getRoute route} mismatch, the connection being closed,
or other circumstances might prevent reuse.
|
public void | open(org.apache.http.conn.routing.HttpRoute route, org.apache.http.protocol.HttpContext context, org.apache.http.params.HttpParams params)Opens this connection according to the given route.
|
public void | setIdleDuration(long duration, java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit unit)Sets the duration that this connection can remain idle before it is
reused. The connection should not be used again if this time elapses. The
idle duration must be reset after each request sent over this connection.
The elapsed time starts counting when the connection is released, which
is typically after the headers (and any response body, if present) is
fully consumed.
|
public void | setState(java.lang.Object state)Assigns a state object to this connection. Connection managers may make
use of the connection state when allocating persistent connections.
|
public void | tunnelProxy(org.apache.http.HttpHost next, boolean secure, org.apache.http.params.HttpParams params)Indicates that a tunnel to an intermediate proxy has been established.
This is used exclusively for so-called proxy chains, where
a request has to pass through multiple proxies before reaching the
target. In that case, all proxies but the last need to be tunnelled
when establishing the connection. Tunnelling of the last proxy to the
target is optional and would be indicated via {@link #tunnelTarget}.
|
public void | tunnelTarget(boolean secure, org.apache.http.params.HttpParams params)Indicates that a tunnel to the target has been established.
The route is the one previously passed to {@link #open open}.
Subsequently, {@link #layerProtocol layerProtocol} can be called
to layer the TLS/SSL protocol on top of the tunnelled connection.
Note: In HttpClient 3, a call to the corresponding method
would automatically trigger the layering of the TLS/SSL protocol.
This is not the case anymore, you can establish a tunnel without
layering a new protocol over the connection.
|
public void | unmarkReusable()Marks this connection as not being in a reusable state.
This can be used immediately before releasing this connection
to prevent it's reuse. Reasons for preventing reuse include
error conditions and the evaluation of a
{@link org.apache.http.ConnectionReuseStrategy reuse strategy}.
Note:
It is not necessary to call here before writing to
or reading from this connection. Communication attempts will
automatically unmark the state as non-reusable. It can then
be switched back using {@link #markReusable markReusable}.
