However, the SocketImpl +class is shown implementing a SocketOptions interface that is not documented. +We assume this is a non-public interface which contains abstract declarations +of the get/setOption methods as well as contants for the option_id's. + +TCP_NODELAY: + The option id of this option is 1. The Object passed to setOption is + a Boolean indicating whether this option should be on (true) or off (false). + +SO_LINGER: + The option id of this option is 128. When SO_LINGER is to be disabled, + the Object passed to setOption is Boolean with a value of false. When + SO_LINGER is to be enabled, the Object passed to setOption is an Integer + set to the linger value. + +SO_TIMEOUT: + The option id of this option is 4102. The Object passed to setOption is + an Integer that is the new timeout value (0 to disable). + + |
