  • Constructor Details

    • TlsStatusConnection

      public TlsStatusConnection(String address, TlsConfig tlsConfig)
      Initializes a new status only instance of the TlsStatusConnection class using the default status port of 9243. This constructor will use the default timeouts for Connection.read(). The default timeout is a maximum of 5 seconds for any data to be received. If no more data is available after 500 milliseconds the read operation is assumed to be complete.
      To specify timeouts other than the defaults, use:
      TlsStatusConnection(String, int, TlsConfig, int, int).
      Parameters:
      address - the IP Address or DNS Hostname.
      tlsConfig - TLS configuration including certificates and protocols.
    • TlsStatusConnection

      public TlsStatusConnection(String address, int port, TlsConfig tlsConfig)
      Initializes a new status only instance of the TlsConnection class. This constructor will use the default timeouts for Connection.read(). The default timeout is a maximum of 5 seconds for any data to be received. If no more data is available after 500 milliseconds the read operation is assumed to be complete.
      To specify timeouts other than the defaults, use:
      TlsStatusConnection(String, int, TlsConfig).
      Parameters:
      address - the IP Address or DNS Hostname.
      port - the port number.
      tlsConfig - TLS configuration including certificates and protocols.
    • TlsStatusConnection

      public TlsStatusConnection(String address, int port, TlsConfig tlsConfig, int maxTimeoutForRead, int timeToWaitForMoreData)
      Initializes a new status only instance of the TlsConnection class. This constructor will use the specified timeouts for Connection.read(). The timeout is a maximum of maxTimeoutForRead milliseconds for any data to be received. If no more data is available after timeToWaitForMoreData milliseconds the read operation is assumed to be complete.
      Parameters:
      address - the IP Address or DNS Hostname.
      port - the port number.
      tlsConfig - TLS configuration including certificates and protocols.
      maxTimeoutForRead - the maximum time, in milliseconds, to wait for any data to be received.
      timeToWaitForMoreData - the maximum time, in milliseconds, to wait in-between reads after the initial read.
