Accepting options
Top  Previous  Next

The telnet server may request that an option be used by sending a DO OPTION (or WILL OPTION) command where OPTION is the option code for the requested option. The client may accept the option by returning a WILL OPTION (or DO OPTION) command.

To capture and accept these options the TelnetListener#doOption and TelnetListener#willOption methods must be overloaded. To accept these option requests the Telnet#sendDoOption and Telnet#sendWillOption methods are used respectively.

Example


public void doOption(DoOptionEvent event) {
  TelnetOption option = event.getOption();
  telnet.sendWillOption(option);
}

public void willOption(WillOptionEvent event) {
  TelnetOption option = event.getOption();
  telnet.sendDoOption(option);
}
