TCP, UDP

Method Summary

void	close()
String	getHostName()
int	getPort()
int	getReceiveBufferSize()
int	getType() Returns the type of transport layer.
boolean	isConnected()
void	open(String host, int port, InetAddress localAddr, int localPort) Creates a client-side socket and connects it to the specified port number on the named host.
void	open(String host, int port, InetAddress localAddr, int localPort, int connectionTimeout) Creates a client-side socket and connects it to the specified port number on the named host.
int	receive(TransportData data)
void	send(String str)
void	send(TransportData data)
void	setReceiveBufferSize(int size)
void	setTimeout(int timeout)
void	setTrafficClass(int tc) Sets traffic class or type-of-service octet in the IP datagram header As the underlying network implementation may ignore this value applications should consider it a hint.
