Detailed Description

This is an implementation of a simple HTTP Proxying connection.

Usage:

Client* c = new Client( ... );
ConnectionTCPClient* conn0 = new ConnectionTCPClient( c->logInstance(),
proxyHost, proxyPort );
ConnectionHTTPProxy* conn1 = new ConnectionHTTPProxy( c, conn0, c->logInstance(),
xmppHost, xmppPort );
c->setConnectionImpl( conn1 );

Make sure to pass the proxy host/port to the transport connection (ConnectionTCPClient in this case), and the XMPP host/port to the proxy connection.

ConnectionHTTPProxy uses the CONNECT method to pass through the proxy. If your proxy does not allow this kind of connections, or if it kills connections after some time, you may want to use ConnectionBOSH instead or in addition.

The reason why ConnectionHTTPProxy doesn't manage its own ConnectionTCPClient is that it allows it to be used with other transports (like IPv6 or chained SOCKS5/HTTP proxies).

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

ConnectionHTTPProxy ( ConnectionBase connection,
const LogSink logInstance,
const std::string &  server,
int  port = -1 
)

Constructs a new ConnectionHTTPProxy object.

Parameters
connectionA transport connection. It should be configured to connect to the proxy host and port, not to the XMPP host. ConnectionHTTPProxy will own the transport connection and delete it in its destructor.
logInstanceThe log target. Obtain it from ClientBase::logInstance().
serverA server to connect to. This is the XMPP server's address, not the proxy.
portThe port to connect to. This is the XMPP server's port, not the proxy's. The default of -1 means that SRV records will be used to find out about the actual host:port.
Note
To properly use this object, you have to set a ConnectionDataHandler using registerConnectionDataHandler(). This is not necessary if this object is part of a 'connection chain', e.g. with ConnectionSOCKS5Proxy.

ConnectionHTTPProxy ( ConnectionDataHandler cdh,
ConnectionBase connection,
const LogSink logInstance,
const std::string &  server,
int  port = -1 
)

Constructs a new ConnectionHTTPProxy object.

Parameters
cdhAn ConnectionDataHandler-derived object that will handle incoming data.
connectionA transport connection. It should be configured to connect to the proxy host and port, not to the XMPP host. ConnectionHTTPProxy will own the transport connection and delete it in its destructor.
logInstanceThe log target. Obtain it from ClientBase::logInstance().
serverA server to connect to. This is the XMPP server's address, not the proxy.
portThe port to connect to. This is the XMPP server's port, not the proxy's. The default of -1 means that SRV records will be used to find out about the actual host:port.

Member Function Documentation

void cleanup ( )
virtual

This function is called after a disconnect to clean up internal state. It is also called by ConnectionBase's destructor.

Reimplemented from ConnectionBase.

Definition at line 110 of file connectionhttpproxy.cpp.

ConnectionError connect ( )
virtual

Used to initiate the connection.

Returns
Returns the connection state.

Implements ConnectionBase.

Definition at line 77 of file connectionhttpproxy.cpp.

void disconnect ( )
virtual

Disconnects an established connection. NOOP if no active connection exists.

Implements ConnectionBase.

Definition at line 88 of file connectionhttpproxy.cpp.

void getStatistics ( long int &  totalIn,
long int &  totalOut 
)
virtual

Returns current connection statistics.

Parameters
totalInThe total number of bytes received.
totalOutThe total number of bytes sent.

Implements ConnectionBase.

Definition at line 118 of file connectionhttpproxy.cpp.

void handleConnect ( const ConnectionBase connection)
virtual

This function is called when e.g. the raw TCP connection was established.

Parameters
connectionThe connection.

Implements ConnectionDataHandler.

Definition at line 161 of file connectionhttpproxy.cpp.

void handleDisconnect ( const ConnectionBase connection,
ConnectionError  reason 
)
virtual

This connection is called when e.g. the raw TCP connection was closed.

Parameters
connectionThe connection.
reasonThe reason for the disconnect.

Implements ConnectionDataHandler.

Definition at line 205 of file connectionhttpproxy.cpp.

void handleReceivedData ( const ConnectionBase connection,
const std::string &  data 
)
virtual

This function is called for received from the underlying transport.

Parameters
connectionThe connection that received the data.
dataThe data received.

Implements ConnectionDataHandler.

Definition at line 126 of file connectionhttpproxy.cpp.

ConnectionBase * newInstance ( ) const
virtual

This function returns a new instance of the current ConnectionBase-derived object. The idea is to be able to 'clone' ConnectionBase-derived objects without knowing of what type they are exactly.

Returns
A new Connection* instance.

Implements ConnectionBase.

Definition at line 63 of file connectionhttpproxy.cpp.

ConnectionError receive ( )
virtual

Use this function to put the connection into 'receive mode', i.e. this function returns only when the connection is terminated.

Returns
Returns a value indicating the disconnection reason.

Implements ConnectionBase.

Definition at line 100 of file connectionhttpproxy.cpp.

ConnectionError recv ( int  timeout = -1)
virtual

Use this periodically to receive data from the socket.

Parameters
timeoutThe timeout to use for select in microseconds. Default of -1 means blocking.
Returns
The state of the connection.

Implements ConnectionBase.

Definition at line 95 of file connectionhttpproxy.cpp.

bool send ( const std::string &  data)
virtual

Use this function to send a string of data over the wire. The function returns only after all data has been sent.

Parameters
dataThe data to send.
Returns
True if the data has been sent (no guarantee of receipt), false in case of an error.

Implements ConnectionBase.

Definition at line 105 of file connectionhttpproxy.cpp.

void setConnectionImpl ( ConnectionBase connection)

Sets the underlying transport connection. A possibly existing connection will be deleted.

Parameters
connectionThe ConnectionBase to replace the current connection, if any.

Definition at line 69 of file connectionhttpproxy.cpp.

void setHTTP11 ( bool  http11)
inline

Switches usage of HTTP/1.1 on or off.

Parameters
http11Set this to true to connect through a HTTP/1.1-only proxy, or false to use HTTP/1.0. Defaults to HTTP/1.0 which should work with 99.9% of proxies.

Definition at line 153 of file connectionhttpproxy.h.

void setProxyAuth ( const std::string &  user,
const std::string &  password 
)
inline

Sets proxy authorization credentials.

Parameters
userThe user name to use for proxy authorization.
passwordThe password to use for proxy authorization.

Definition at line 139 of file connectionhttpproxy.h.

void setServer ( const std::string &  host,
int  port = -1 
)
inline

Sets the XMPP server to proxy to.

Parameters
hostThe XMPP server hostname (IP address).
portThe XMPP server port. The default of -1 means that SRV records will be used to find out about the actual host:port.

Reimplemented from ConnectionBase.
