Class SocketUtil

java.lang.Object
  jmri.util.SocketUtil

public class SocketUtil
extends Object

Common utility methods for working with Sockets.

We needed a place to refactor common socket-handling idioms in JMRI code, so this class was created. It's more of a library of procedures than a real class, as (so far) all of the operations have needed no state information.

In some cases, these routines use a Java 1.3 or later method, falling back to an explicit implementation when running on Java 1.1
