  • Method Details

    • create

      public static HttpsServer create() throws IOException
      Creates a HttpsServer instance which is initially not bound to any local address/port. The HttpsServer is acquired from the currently installed HttpServerProvider. The server must be bound using HttpServer.bind(InetSocketAddress,int) before it can be used. The server must also have a HttpsConfigurator established with setHttpsConfigurator(HttpsConfigurator).
      Returns:
      an instance of HttpsServer
      Throws:
      IOException - if an I/O error occurs

    • create

      public static HttpsServer create(InetSocketAddress addr, int backlog) throws IOException
      Create a HttpsServer instance which will bind to the specified InetSocketAddress (IP 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. The HttpsServer is acquired from the currently installed HttpServerProvider. The server must have a HttpsConfigurator established with setHttpsConfigurator(HttpsConfigurator).
      Parameters:
      addr - the address to listen on, if null then HttpServer.bind(InetSocketAddress,int) must be called to set the address
      backlog - the socket backlog. If this value is less than or equal to zero, then a system default value is used.
      Returns:
      an instance of HttpsServer
      Throws:
      BindException - if the server cannot bind to the requested address, or if the server is already bound
      IOException - if an I/O error occurs

    • setHttpsConfigurator

      public abstract void setHttpsConfigurator(HttpsConfigurator config)
      Sets this server's HttpsConfigurator object.
      Parameters:
      config - the HttpsConfigurator to set
      Throws:
      NullPointerException - if config is null

    • getHttpsConfigurator

      public abstract HttpsConfigurator getHttpsConfigurator()
      Gets this server's HttpsConfigurator object, if it has been set.
      Returns:
      the HttpsConfigurator for this server, or null if not set
