## Uses of Interface
java.net.SocketOption

Packages that use SocketOption
java.net: Provides the classes for implementing networking applications.
java.nio.channels: Defines channels, which represent connections to entities that are capable of performing I/O operations, such as files and sockets; defines selectors, for multiplexed, non-blocking I/O operations.
