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() [1/2]

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

Constructs a new ConnectionHTTPProxy object.

Parameters

connection	A 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.
logInstance	The log target. Obtain it from ClientBase::logInstance().
server	A server to connect to. This is the XMPP server's address, not the proxy.
port	The 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.

Definition at line 29 of file connectionhttpproxy.cpp.

◆ ConnectionHTTPProxy() [2/2]

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

Constructs a new ConnectionHTTPProxy object.

Parameters

cdh	An ConnectionDataHandler-derived object that will handle incoming data.
connection	A 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.
logInstance	The log target. Obtain it from ClientBase::logInstance().
server	A server to connect to. This is the XMPP server's address, not the proxy.
port	The 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.

◆ ~ConnectionHTTPProxy()

~ConnectionHTTPProxy ( )

virtual

Virtual destructor

Definition at line 58 of file connectionhttpproxy.cpp.

Member Function Documentation

◆ cleanup()

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.

◆ connect()

ConnectionError connect ( )

virtual

Used to initiate the connection.

Returns: Returns the connection state.

Implements ConnectionBase.

Definition at line 77 of file connectionhttpproxy.cpp.

◆ disconnect()

void disconnect ( )

virtual

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

Implements ConnectionBase.

Definition at line 88 of file connectionhttpproxy.cpp.

◆ getStatistics()

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

virtual

Returns current connection statistics.

Parameters

totalIn	The total number of bytes received.
totalOut	The total number of bytes sent.

Implements ConnectionBase.

Definition at line 118 of file connectionhttpproxy.cpp.

◆ handleConnect()

void handleConnect ( const ConnectionBase * connection )

virtual

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

Parameters

connection The connection.

Implements ConnectionDataHandler.

Definition at line 161 of file connectionhttpproxy.cpp.

◆ handleDisconnect()

void handleDisconnect	(	const ConnectionBase *	connection,
		ConnectionError	reason
	)

virtual

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

Parameters

connection	The connection.
reason	The reason for the disconnect.

Implements ConnectionDataHandler.

Definition at line 205 of file connectionhttpproxy.cpp.

◆ handleReceivedData()

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

virtual

This function is called for received from the underlying transport.

Parameters

connection	The connection that received the data.
data	The data received.

Implements ConnectionDataHandler.

Definition at line 126 of file connectionhttpproxy.cpp.

◆ newInstance()

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.

◆ receive()

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.

◆ recv()

ConnectionError recv ( int timeout = -1 )

virtual

Use this periodically to receive data from the socket.

Parameters

timeout The 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.

◆ send()

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

data	The 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.

◆ setConnectionImpl()

void setConnectionImpl ( ConnectionBase * connection )

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

Parameters

connection The ConnectionBase to replace the current connection, if any.

Definition at line 69 of file connectionhttpproxy.cpp.

◆ setHTTP11()

void setHTTP11 ( bool http11 )

inline

Switches usage of HTTP/1.1 on or off.

Parameters

http11 Set 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.

◆ setProxyAuth()

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

inline

Sets proxy authorization credentials.

Parameters

user	The user name to use for proxy authorization.
password	The password to use for proxy authorization.

Definition at line 139 of file connectionhttpproxy.h.

◆ setServer()

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

inline

Sets the XMPP server to proxy to.

Parameters

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