Methods

 public boolean propertyChanged(String name)
 o getSocket
 protected DatagramSocket getSocket()
 o createICPSender
 protected void createICPSender(String host,
                                int dstport,
                                String http) throws UnknownHostException, MalformedURLException, SocketException
 o parseConfiguration
 protected void parseConfiguration()
Parse the configuration file.

 o getSender
 public ICPSender getSender(InetAddress addr,
                            int port)
Get the sender object for the given InetAddress instance.

Parameters:
addr - The InetAddress of the sender.
Returns:
An ICPSender instance, if available, null otherwise.
 o locateProxy
 protected URL locateProxy(ICPReply reply)
Locate the HTTP service of the proxy that has emitted that reply.

Parameters:
reply - The reply emitted by the host that alos host the HTTP service we are looking for.
Returns:
The URL of the proxy, or null if no matching proxy was found.
 o sendQuery
 protected int sendQuery(ICPQuery query)
Send the given query to all our neighbors.

Returns:
The number of times we emitted the query.
 o runQuery
 protected URL runQuery(ICPQuery query)
Run the ICP query, and return the proxy we should go to.

Parameters:
url - The URL we are looking for.
Returns:
The URL of the proxy we should go to for that URL, or null if none was found.
 o exceptionFilter
 public boolean exceptionFilter(Request request,
                                HttpException ex)
This filter doesn't handle exceptions.

Parameters:
request - The request that triggered the exception.
ex - The triggered exception.
Returns:
Always false.
 o ingoingFilter
 public Reply ingoingFilter(Request request)
Our ingoingFilter method. This method emits (only for GET requestst currently) an ICP query to all our neighbors, and wait for either one of them to reply with a hit, or, our timeout value to expire.

If a hit reply is received, we then use the corresponding proxy to fullfill the request.

Parameters:
request - The request that is about to be emitted.
Returns:
Always null.
 o outgoingFilter
 public Reply outgoingFilter(Request request,
                             Reply reply)
Our outgoingFilter does nothing (at all).

Parameters:
request - The request that has been processed.
reply - The original reply (from origin server)
Returns:
Always null.
 o sync
 public void sync()
This filter doesn't maintain dynamic state.

 o initialize
 public void initialize(HttpManager manager) throws PropRequestFilterException
Initialize the ICP filter. This is where we parse the configuration file in order to know about our neighbors. We then register ourself to the HTTP manager.

Parameters:
manager - The HTTP manager.
Throws: FilterInitException
If the filter cannot launch its server part (listening for incomming ICP requests)
