Field Detail

localPort

protected int localPort
The local port number.


fd

protected FileDescriptor fd
The file descriptor object.

Constructor Detail

DatagramSocketImpl

public DatagramSocketImpl()
Method Detail

create

protected abstract void create()
                        throws SocketException
Creates a datagram socket.

Throws:
SocketException - if there is an error in the underlying protocol, such as a TCP error.

bind

protected abstract void bind(int lport,
                             InetAddress laddr)
                      throws SocketException
Binds a datagram socket to a local port and address.

Parameters:
lport - the local port
laddr - the local address
Throws:
SocketException - if there is an error in the underlying protocol, such as a TCP error.

send

protected abstract void send(DatagramPacket p)
                      throws IOException
Sends a datagram packet. The packet contains the data and the destination address to send the packet to.

Parameters:
p - the packet to be sent.
Throws:
IOException - if an I/O exception occurs while sending the datagram packet.
PortUnreachableException - may be thrown if the socket is connected to a currently unreachable destination. Note, there is no guarantee that the exception will be thrown.

connect

protected void connect(InetAddress address,
                       int port)
                throws SocketException
Connects a datagram socket to a remote destination. This associates the remote address with the local socket so that datagrams may only be sent to this destination and received from this destination. This may be overridden to call a native system connect.

If the remote destination to which the socket is connected does not exist, or is otherwise unreachable, and if an ICMP destination unreachable packet has been received for that address, then a subsequent call to send or receive may throw a PortUnreachableException. Note, there is no guarantee that the exception will be thrown.

Parameters:
address - the remote InetAddress to connect to
port - the remote port number
Throws:
SocketException - may be thrown if the socket cannot be connected to the remote destination
Since:
1.4

disconnect

protected void disconnect()
Disconnects a datagram socket from its remote destination.

Since:
1.4

peek

protected abstract int peek(InetAddress i)
                     throws IOException
Peek at the packet to see who it is from. Updates the specified InetAddress to the address which the packet came from.

Parameters:
i - an InetAddress object
Returns:
the port number which the packet came from.
Throws:
IOException - if an I/O exception occurs
PortUnreachableException - may be thrown if the socket is connected to a currently unreachable destination. Note, there is no guarantee that the exception will be thrown.

peekData

protected abstract int peekData(DatagramPacket p)
                         throws IOException
Peek at the packet to see who it is from. The data is copied into the specified DatagramPacket. The data is returned, but not consumed, so that a subsequent peekData/receive operation will see the same data.

Parameters:
p - the Packet Received.
Returns:
the port number which the packet came from.
Throws:
IOException - if an I/O exception occurs
PortUnreachableException - may be thrown if the socket is connected to a currently unreachable destination. Note, there is no guarantee that the exception will be thrown.
Since:
1.4

receive

protected abstract void receive(DatagramPacket p)
                         throws IOException
Receive the datagram packet.

Parameters:
p - the Packet Received.
Throws:
IOException - if an I/O exception occurs while receiving the datagram packet.
PortUnreachableException - may be thrown if the socket is connected to a currently unreachable destination. Note, there is no guarantee that the exception will be thrown.

setTTL

@Deprecated
protected abstract void setTTL(byte ttl)
                        throws IOException
Deprecated. use setTimeToLive instead.

Set the TTL (time-to-live) option.

Parameters:
ttl - a byte specifying the TTL value
