Interface Socket

All Superinterfaces:

Disposable

All Known Implementing Classes:

NetJavaSocketImpl

public interface Socket
extends Disposable

A client socket that talks to a server socket via some Net.Protocol. See Net.newClientSocket(Protocol, String, int, SocketHints) and Net.newServerSocket(Protocol, int, ServerSocketHints).

A socket has an InputStream used to send data to the other end of the connection, and an OutputStream to receive data from the other end of the connection.

A socket needs to be disposed if it is no longer used. Disposing also closes the connection.
