java.lang.Objectorg.apache.commons.net.SocketClient
org.apache.commons.net.nntp.NNTP
The NNTP class is not meant to be used by itself and is provided only so that you may easily implement your own NNTP client if you so desire. If you have no need to perform your own implementation, you should use NNTPClient. The NNTP class is made public to provide access to various NNTP constants and to make it easier for adventurous programmers (or those with special needs) to interact with the NNTP protocol and implement their own clients. A set of methods with names corresponding to the NNTP command names are provided to facilitate this interaction.
You should keep in mind that the NNTP server may choose to prematurely
close a connection if the client has been idle for longer than a
given time period or if the server is being shutdown by the operator or
some other reason. The NNTP class will detect a
premature NNTP server connection closing when it receives a
NNTPReply.SERVICE_DISCONTINUED response to a command.
When that occurs, the NNTP class method encountering that reply will throw
an
NNTPConnectionClosedException .
NNTPConectionClosedException
is a subclass of IOException
and therefore need not be
caught separately, but if you are going to catch it separately, its
catch block must appear before the more general IOException
catch block. When you encounter an
NNTPConnectionClosedException , you must disconnect the connection with
disconnect() to properly clean up the
system resources used by NNTP. Before disconnecting, you may check the
last reply code and text with
getReplyCode and
getReplyString .
Rather than list it separately for each method, we mention here that every method communicating with the server and throwing an IOException can also throw a MalformedServerReplyException , which is a subclass of IOException. A MalformedServerReplyException will be thrown when the reply received from the server deviates enough from the protocol specification that it cannot be interpreted in a useful manner despite attempts to be as lenient as possible.
