Method Detail

bind

public void bind(InetSocketAddress addr,
        int backlog)
          throws IOException

Description copied from class: HttpServer

Binds a currently unbound HttpServer to the given address and port number. A maximum backlog can also be specified. This is the maximum number of queued incoming connections to allow on the listening socket. Queued TCP connections exceeding this limit may be rejected by the TCP implementation.

Specified by:

bind in class HttpServer

Parameters:

addr - the address to listen on

backlog - the socket backlog. If this value is less than or equal to zero, then a system default value is used.

Throws:

BindException - if the server cannot bind to the requested address or if the server is already bound.

IOException

start

public void start()

Description copied from class: HttpServer

Starts this server in a new background thread. The background thread inherits the priority, thread group and context class loader of the caller.

Specified by:

start in class HttpServer

setExecutor

public void setExecutor(Executor executor)

Description copied from class: HttpServer

sets this server's Executor object. An Executor must be established before HttpServer.start() is called. All HTTP requests are handled in tasks given to the executor. If this method is not called (before start()) or if it is called with a null Executor, then a default implementation is used, which uses the thread which was created by the HttpServer.start() method.

Specified by:

setExecutor in class HttpServer

Parameters:

executor - the Executor to set, or null for default implementation

getExecutor

public Executor getExecutor()

Description copied from class: HttpServer

returns this server's Executor object if one was specified with HttpServer.setExecutor(Executor), or null if none was specified.

Specified by:

getExecutor in class HttpServer

Returns:

the Executor established for this server or null if not set.

stop

public void stop(int delay)

Description copied from class: HttpServer

stops this server by closing the listening socket and disallowing any new exchanges from being processed. The method will then block until all current exchange handlers have completed or else when approximately delay seconds have elapsed (whichever happens sooner). Then, all open TCP connections are closed, the background thread created by start() exits, and the method returns. Once stopped, a HttpServer cannot be re-used.

Specified by:

stop in class HttpServer

Parameters:

delay - the maximum time in seconds to wait until exchanges have finished.

createContext

public sun.net.httpserver.HttpContextImpl createContext(String path,
                                               HttpHandler handler)

Description copied from class: HttpServer

Creates a HttpContext. A HttpContext represents a mapping from a URI path to a exchange handler on this HttpServer. Once created, all requests received by the server for the path will be handled by calling the given handler object. The context is identified by the path, and can later be removed from the server using this with the HttpServer.removeContext(String) method.

The path specifies the root URI path for this context. The first character of path must be '/'.

The class overview describes how incoming request URIs are mapped to HttpContext instances.

Specified by:

createContext in class HttpServer

Parameters:

path - the root URI path to associate the context with

handler - the handler to invoke for incoming requests.

createContext

public sun.net.httpserver.HttpContextImpl createContext(String path)

Description copied from class: HttpServer

Creates a HttpContext without initially specifying a handler. The handler must later be specified using HttpContext.setHandler(HttpHandler). A HttpContext represents a mapping from a URI path to an exchange handler on this HttpServer. Once created, and when the handler has been set, all requests received by the server for the path will be handled by calling the handler object. The context is identified by the path, and can later be removed from the server using this with the HttpServer.removeContext(String) method.

The path specifies the root URI path for this context. The first character of path must be '/'.

The class overview describes how incoming request URIs are mapped to HttpContext instances.

Specified by:

createContext in class HttpServer

Parameters:

path - the root URI path to associate the context with

removeContext

public void removeContext(String path)
                   throws IllegalArgumentException

Description copied from class: HttpServer

Removes the context identified by the given path from the server. Removing a context does not affect exchanges currently being processed but prevents new ones from being accepted.

Specified by:

removeContext in class HttpServer

Parameters:

path - the path of the handler to remove

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if no handler corresponding to this path exists.

removeContext

public void removeContext(HttpContext context)
                   throws IllegalArgumentException

Description copied from class: HttpServer

Removes the given context from the server. Removing a context does not affect exchanges currently being processed but prevents new ones from being accepted.

Specified by:

removeContext in class HttpServer

Parameters:

context - the context to remove

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException

getAddress

public InetSocketAddress getAddress()

Description copied from class: HttpServer

returns the address this server is listening on

Specified by:

getAddress in class HttpServer

Returns:

the address/port number the server is listening on
