A Protocol factory for clients.
This can be used together with the various connectXXX methods in reactors.
| Method | startedConnecting | Called when a connection has been started. |
| Method | clientConnectionFailed | Called when a connection has failed to connect. |
| Method | clientConnectionLost | Called when an established connection is lost. |
Inherited from Factory:
| Class Variable | protocol | Undocumented |
| Instance Variable | numPorts | Undocumented |
| Class Variable | noisy | Undocumented |
| 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. |
| Method | buildProtocol | Create an instance of a subclass of Protocol. |
Called when a connection has been started.
You can call connector.stopConnecting() to stop the connection attempt.
| Parameters | connector | a Connector object. |
Called when a connection has failed to connect.
It may be useful to call connector.connect() - this will reconnect.
| Parameters | connector | Undocumented |
| reason | Undocumented (type: twisted.python.failure.Failure) |
Called when an established connection is lost.
It may be useful to call connector.connect() - this will reconnect.
| Parameters | connector | Undocumented |
| reason | Undocumented (type: twisted.python.failure.Failure) |
