Package Summary  Overview Summary

class:Proxy [NONE]


public class Proxy
extends Object
This class represents a proxy setting, typically a type (http, socks) and a socket address. A Proxy is an immutable object.
Since:
1.5

ProxySelector

field:NO_PROXY [NONE]

  • NO_PROXY

    public static final  Proxy NO_PROXY
    A proxy setting that represents a DIRECT connection, basically telling the protocol handler not to use any proxying. Used, for instance, to create sockets bypassing any other global proxy settings (like SOCKS):

    Socket s = new Socket(Proxy.NO_PROXY);

constructor:Proxy(java.net.Proxy.Type,java.net.SocketAddress) [NONE]

  • Proxy

    public Proxy​(Proxy.Type type, SocketAddress sa)
    Creates an entry representing a PROXY connection. Certain combinations are illegal. For instance, for types Http, and Socks, a SocketAddress must be provided.

    Use the Proxy.NO_PROXY constant for representing a direct connection.

    Parameters:
    type - the Type of the proxy
    sa - the SocketAddress for that proxy
    Throws:
    IllegalArgumentException - when the type and the address are incompatible

method:type() [NONE]

  • type

    public Proxy.Type type()
    Returns the proxy type.
    Returns:
    a Type representing the proxy type
  • method:address() [NONE]

    address

    public SocketAddress address()
    Returns the socket address of the proxy, or null if its a direct connection.
    Returns:
    a SocketAddress representing the socket end point of the proxy

    method:toString() [NONE]

    toString

    public String toString()
    Constructs a string representation of this Proxy. This String is constructed by calling toString() on its type and concatenating " @ " and the toString() result from its address if its type is not DIRECT.
    Overrides:
    toString in class Object
    Returns:
    a string representation of this object.

    method:equals(java.lang.Object) [NONE]

    equals

    public final  boolean equals​(Object obj)
    Compares this object against the specified object. The result is true if and only if the argument is not null and it represents the same proxy as this object.

    Two instances of Proxy represent the same address if both the SocketAddresses and type are equal.

    Overrides:
    equals in class Object
    Parameters:
    obj - the object to compare against.
    Returns:
    true if the objects are the same; false otherwise.
    See Also:
    InetSocketAddress.equals(java.lang.Object)

    method:hashCode() [NONE]

    hashCode

    public final  int hashCode()
    Returns a hashcode for this Proxy.
    Overrides:
    hashCode in class Object
    Returns:
    a hash code value for this Proxy.
    See Also:
    Object.equals(java.lang.Object), System.identityHashCode(java.lang.Object)
