Public constructors
LocalServerSocket
LocalServerSocket(fd: FileDescriptor!)
Create a LocalServerSocket from a file descriptor that's already been created and bound. listen() will be called immediately on it. Used for cases where file descriptors are passed in via environment variables. The passed-in FileDescriptor is not managed by this class and must be closed by the caller. Calling #close() on a socket created by this method has no effect.
| Parameters | |
|---|---|
| fd | FileDescriptor!: bound file descriptor |
| Exceptions |
|---|
| java.io.IOException |
