| <h1>WTP Internet Component Overview</h1> |
| |
| <p>Last modified April 29, 2005</p> |
| |
| <p>The internet component consists of four separate sub-components: the internet cache, internal |
| and external browser support, proxy settings, and the TCP/IP monitor.</p> |
| |
| <h2>Internet Cache</h2> |
| |
| <p>This subcomponent (org.eclipse.wst.internet.cache) contains an extension for |
| the URI resolver framework which caches requested remote resources preventing |
| remote access on subsequent requests for the resources. The cache respects suggested |
| expiration times for remote resources. The cache can be configured through user preferences. |
| </p> |
| |
| <h2>Web Browser</h2> |
| |
| <p>This subcomponent (org.eclipse.wst.internet.webbrowser) contains extensions |
| to the Web browser included in the Eclipse base. |
| </p> |
| |
| <h2>Proxy Server settings</h2> |
| |
| <p>The proxy server settings allow WTP components to access the internet through |
| a proxy server. |
| </p> |
| |
| <h2>TCP/IP Monitor</h2> |
| |
| <p>The TCP/IP monitor allows a user to monitor the TCP/IP traffic between a client |
| and server. It is contained in two plugins: org.eclipse.wst.internet.monitor.core |
| and org.eclipse.wst.internet.monitor.ui.</p> |
| |
| <p>Using the API, a Monitor is created for every connection that should be monitored. |
| When the monitor is started, any connection passing through it generates a Request. |
