    • NUMURLConnection

      public NUMURLConnection​(@NonNull @NonNull java.net.URL url)
      Constructs a URL connection to the specified URL. A connection to the object referenced by the URL is not created.
      Parameters:
      url - the specified URL.
  • Method Details

    • setReadTimeout

      public void setReadTimeout​(int timeout)
      Sets the read timeout to a specified timeout, in milliseconds. A non-zero value specifies the timeout when reading from Input stream when a connection is established to a resource. If the timeout expires before there is data available for read, a java.net.SocketTimeoutException is raised. A timeout of zero is interpreted as an infinite timeout.

      Some non-standard implementation of this method ignores the specified timeout. To see the read timeout set, please call getReadTimeout().

      Overrides:
      setReadTimeout in class java.net.URLConnection
      Parameters:
      timeout - an int that specifies the timeout value to be used in milliseconds
      Throws:

    • getContent

      public java.lang.Object getContent() throws java.io.IOException
      Retrieves the contents of this URL connection.

      This method first determines the content type of the object by calling the getContentType method. If this is the first time that the application has seen that specific content type, a content handler for that content type is created:

      1. If the application has set up a content handler factory instance using the setContentHandlerFactory method, the createContentHandler method of that instance is called with the content type as an argument; the result is a content handler for that content type.
      2. If no content handler factory has yet been set up, or if the factory's createContentHandler method returns null, then the application loads the class named:
                 sun.net.www.content.<contentType>
             
        where <contentType> is formed by taking the content-type string, replacing all slash characters with a period ('.'), and all other non-alphanumeric characters with the underscore character '_'. The alphanumeric characters are specifically the 26 uppercase ASCII letters 'A' through 'Z', the 26 lowercase ASCII letters 'a' through 'z', and the 10 ASCII digits '0' through '9'. If the specified class does not exist, or is not a subclass of ContentHandler, then an UnknownServiceException is thrown.
      Overrides:
      getContent in class java.net.URLConnection
      Returns:
      the object fetched. The instanceof operator should be used to determine the specific kind of object returned.
      Throws:
      java.io.IOException - if an I/O error occurs while getting the content.
      See Also:
      ContentHandlerFactory.createContentHandler(String), URLConnection.getContentType(), URLConnection.setContentHandlerFactory(ContentHandlerFactory)
    • getContent

      public java.lang.Object getContent​(java.lang.Class[] classes) throws java.io.IOException
      Retrieves the contents of this URL connection.
      Overrides:
      getContent in class java.net.URLConnection
      Parameters:
      classes - the Class array indicating the requested types
      Returns:
      the object fetched that is the first match of the type specified in the classes array. null if none of the requested types are supported. The instanceof operator should be used to determine the specific kind of object returned.
      Throws:
      java.io.IOException - if an I/O error occurs while getting the content.
      Since:
      1.3
      See Also:
      URLConnection.getContent(), ContentHandlerFactory.createContentHandler(String), URLConnection.getContent(Class[]), URLConnection.setContentHandlerFactory(ContentHandlerFactory)
    • getPermission

      public java.security.Permission getPermission() throws java.io.IOException
      Returns a permission object representing the permission necessary to make the connection represented by this object. This method returns null if no permission is required to make the connection. By default, this method returns java.security.AllPermission. Subclasses should override this method and return the permission that best represents the permission required to make a a connection to the URL. For example, a URLConnection representing a file: URL would return a java.io.FilePermission object.

      The permission returned may dependent upon the state of the connection. For example, the permission before connecting may be different from that after connecting. For example, an HTTP sever, say foo.com, may redirect the connection to a different host, say bar.com. Before connecting the permission returned by the connection will represent the permission needed to connect to foo.com, while the permission returned after connecting will be to bar.com.

      Permissions are generally used for two purposes: to protect caches of objects obtained through URLConnections, and to check the right of a recipient to learn about a particular URL. In the first case, the permission should be obtained after the object has been obtained. For example, in an HTTP connection, this will represent the permission to connect to the host from which the data was ultimately fetched. In the second case, the permission should be obtained and tested before connecting.

      Overrides:
      getPermission in class java.net.URLConnection
      Returns:
      the permission object representing the permission necessary to make the connection represented by this URLConnection.
      Throws:
      java.io.IOException - if the computation of the permission requires network or file I/O and an exception occurs while computing it.
    • getInputStream

      public java.io.InputStream getInputStream() throws java.io.IOException
      Returns an input stream that reads from this open connection.

      A SocketTimeoutException can be thrown when reading from the returned input stream if the read timeout expires before data is available for read.

      Overrides:
      getInputStream in class java.net.URLConnection
      Returns:
      an input stream that reads from this open connection.
      Throws:
      java.io.IOException - if an I/O error occurs while creating the input stream.

    • connect

      public void connect() throws java.io.IOException
      Opens a communications link to the resource referenced by this URL, if such a connection has not already been established.

      If the connect method is called when the connection has already been opened (indicated by the connected field having the value true), the call is ignored.

      URLConnection objects go through two phases: first they are created, then they are connected. After being created, and before being connected, various options can be specified (e.g., doInput and UseCaches). After connecting, it is an error to try to set them. Operations that depend on being connected, like getContentLength, will implicitly perform the connection, if necessary.

      Specified by:
      connect in class java.net.URLConnection
      Throws:
      java.io.IOException - if an I/O error occurs while opening the connection.
