public class HttpConnector
extends TcpConnector

HttpConnector provides a way of receiving and sending http requests and responses. The Connector itself handles dispatching http requests. The HttpMessageReceiver handles the receiving requests and processing of headers This endpoint recognises the following properties -

• hostname - The hostname to send and receive http requests
• port - The port to listen on. The industry standard is 80 and if this propert is not set it will default to 80
• proxyHostname - If you access the web through a proxy, this holds the server address
• proxyPort - The port the proxy is configured on
• proxyUsername - If the proxy requires authentication supply a username
• proxyPassword - If the proxy requires authentication supply a password

Description copied from interface: Connector

Registers a MessageProcessor listener which will listen to new message received from a specific transport channel and then processed by the endpoint. Only a single listener can be registered for a given endpoints. Attempts to register a listener when one is already registered will fail.

Specified by:

Overrides:

registerListener in class AbstractConnector

Parameters:

endpoint - defines both the transport and channel/resource uri as well the processing (transformation/filtering) that should occur when the endpoint processes a new message from the transport receiver.

listener - the listener that will be invoked when messages are received on the endpoint.

flowConstruct - reference to the flow construct that the listener is part of for use as context for logging, notifications and error handling.

Throws:

Exception

endpoint - the endpoint being registered for the service

flowConstruct - the service for which the endpoint is being registered

Returns:

the key to store the newly created receiver against
