org.apache.http.conn.ClientConnectionOperator
org.apache.http.conn.ClientConnectionOperator |
|
Interface for opening connections.
This interface encapsulates the logic to create sockets and to
open or update the connection with the new socket.
Implementations will most likely make use of
socket factories.
The methods in this interface allow the creation of plain and layered
sockets. Creating a tunnelled connection through a proxy, however,
is not within the scope of the operator.

The typical use of this method is to update a tunnelled plain
connection (HTTP) to a secure TLS/SSL connection (HTTPS).
Parameters
conn
| the open connection to update |
target
| the target host for the updated connection.
The connection must already be open or tunnelled
to the host and port, but the scheme of the target
will be used to create a layered connection. |
