Interface SocketFactory

All Known Implementing Classes:
  DefaultSocketFactory

public interface SocketFactory

The SocketFactory interface provides a means for the programmer to control the creation of sockets and provide his own Socket implementations for use by all classes derived from SocketClient . This allows you to provide your own Socket implementations and to perform security checks or browser capability requests before creating a Socket.
