Part of twisted.protocols.loopback View Source View In Hierarchy
| Method | __init__ | Undocumented |
| Method | buildProtocol | Create an instance of a subclass of Protocol. |
| Method | clientConnectionLost | Called when an established connection is lost. |
Inherited from ClientFactory:
| Method | startedConnecting | Called when a connection has been started. |
| Method | clientConnectionFailed | Called when a connection has failed to connect. |
Inherited from Factory (via ClientFactory):
| Class Method | forProtocol | Create a factory for the given protocol. |
| Method | logPrefix | Describe this factory for log messages. |
| Method | doStart | Make sure startFactory is called. |
| Method | doStop | Make sure stopFactory is called. |
| Method | startFactory | This will be called before I begin listening on a Port or Connector. |
| Method | stopFactory | This will be called before I stop listening on all Ports/Connectors. |
The returned instance will handle input on an incoming server connection, and an attribute "factory" pointing to the creating factory.
Override this method to alter how Protocol instances get created.
| Parameters | addr | an object implementing twisted.internet.interfaces.IAddress |
It may be useful to call connector.connect() - this will reconnect.
