Package org.springframework.extensions.webscripts.connector

Class AbstractClient

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    Client
    Direct Known Subclasses:
    RemoteClient
    public abstract class AbstractClient
extends java.lang.Object
implements Client
    Abstract base class for client implementations.

    A general purpose but very useful RemoteClient implementation is provided that should handle most HTTP(S) connection needs.

    Client objects manage state between the web script layer and the remote endpoint.

    Connector objects tell the Client objects what to do and when. They orchestrate the sequence of handshakes and so forth so that the end user or developer doesn't need to worry about the underlying mechanics remoting to the endpoint.
