Class StringSocketHandler

java.lang.Object

com.echomine.net.StringSocketHandler

All Implemented Interfaces:

SocketHandler

Direct Known Subclasses:

StringSocketReaderHandler, StringSocketWriterHandler

public abstract class StringSocketHandler
extends java.lang.Object
implements SocketHandler

The idea of a String handler is to connect either to send some of data or receive some sort of data. It should only be used once and is run synchronously. There isn't even any event firing method because of its simplicity (hence you can't run it asynchronously anyways).

The use of this class is very simple. It is usually used to test connections or to do a one-time request deal such as connecting to a server that returns a request and closes the connection (ie. connecting to a time server to retrieve the current time). For more advanced functionality, you can add your own.
