Creates a new connector client that is ready to connect
to the connector server at the given address. Each successful
call to this method produces a different
JMXConnector
object.
Returns:
a
JMXConnector
representing the new
connector client. Each successful call to this method produces
a different object.
Parameters:
-
serviceURL - the address of the connector server to connect to.
-
environment - a read-only Map containing named attributes
to determine how the connection is made. Keys in this map must
be Strings. The appropriate type of each associated value
depends on the attribute.
Throws:
-
NullPointerException - if
serviceURL
or
environment
is null.
-
IOException - It is recommended for a provider
implementation to throw {@code MalformedURLException} if the
protocol in the {@code serviceURL} is not recognized by this
provider, {@code JMXProviderException} if this is a provider
for the protocol in {@code serviceURL} but it cannot be used
for some reason or any other {@code IOException} if the
connection cannot be made because of a communication problem.
