/**
 * The SocketClient provides the basic operations that are required of client objects accessing sockets. It is meant to be subclassed to avoid having to rewrite
 * the same code over and over again to open a socket, close a socket, set timeouts, etc. Of special note is the {@link #setSocketFactory setSocketFactory }
 * method, which allows you to control the type of Socket the SocketClient creates for initiating network connections. This is especially useful for adding SSL
 * or proxy support as well as better support for applets. For example, you could create a {@link javax.net.SocketFactory} that requests browser security
 * capabilities before creating a socket. All classes derived from SocketClient should use the {@link #_socketFactory_ _socketFactory_ } member variable to
 * create Socket and ServerSocket instances rather than instantiating them by directly invoking a constructor. By honoring this contract you guarantee that a
 * user will always be able to provide his own Socket implementations by substituting his own SocketFactory.
