public class java.net

Proxy

Java SE 6

Inner classes: Proxy.Type

This class represents a proxy setting, typically a type (http, socks) and a socket address. A Proxy is an immutable object.

version	1.3, 08/09/03
since	1.5
See also	java.net.ProxySelector

Fields

final public static 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);

Constructors

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.

type the Type of the proxy

sa the SocketAddress for that proxy

Throws IllegalArgumentException: when the type and the address are incompatible

Methods

public SocketAddress

address()
Returns the socket address of the proxy, or null if its a direct connection.

return a SocketAddress representing the socket end point of the proxy

final public 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.

obj the object to compare against.

return true if the objects are the same; false otherwise.

See also equals(java.lang.Object)

final public int

hashCode()
Returns a hashcode for this Proxy.

return

a hash code value for this Proxy.

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.

return

a string representation of this object.

public Proxy.Type

type()
Returns the proxy type.

return

a Type representing the proxy type
