Member Function Documentation

virtual DcmTransportConnection* DcmTransportLayer::createConnection (  int  openSocket,
OFBool  useSecureLayer
)  [virtual]
 

factory method that returns a new transport connection for the given socket.

Depending on the second parameter, either a transparent or a secure connection is established. If the object cannot be created (e. g. because no secure layer is available), returns NULL.

Parameters:
openSocket TCP/IP socket to be used for the transport connection. the connection must already be establised on socket level. If a non-null pointer is returned, the new connection object takes over control of the socket.
useSecureLayer if true, a secure layer is used. If false, a transparent layer is used.
Returns:
pointer to new connection object if successful, NULL otherwise.

Reimplemented in DcmTLSTransportLayer.
