  - ### Method Detail

    - #### create

          protected abstract void create()
                                  throws SocketException

      Creates a datagram socket.
      Throws:
        `SocketException` - if there is an error in the underlying protocol, such as a TCP error.

    - #### bind

          protected abstract void bind(int lport,
                  InetAddress laddr)
                                throws SocketException

      Binds a datagram socket to a local port and address.
      Parameters:
        `lport` - the local port
        `laddr` - the local address
      Throws:
        `SocketException` - if there is an error in the underlying protocol, such as a TCP error.

    - #### send

          protected abstract void send(DatagramPacket p)
                                throws IOException

      Sends a datagram packet. The packet contains the data and the destination address to send the packet to.
      Parameters:
        `p` - the packet to be sent.
      Throws:
        `IOException` - if an I/O exception occurs while sending the datagram packet.
        `PortUnreachableException` - may be thrown if the socket is connected to a currently unreachable destination. Note, there is no guarantee that the exception will be thrown.

    - #### connect

          protected void connect(InetAddress address,
                     int port)
                          throws SocketException

      Connects a datagram socket to a remote destination. This associates the remote address with the local socket so that datagrams may only be sent to this destination and received from this destination. This may be overridden to call a native system connect.

      If the remote destination to which the socket is connected does not exist, or is otherwise unreachable, and if an ICMP destination unreachable packet has been received for that address, then a subsequent call to send or receive may throw a PortUnreachableException. Note, there is no guarantee that the exception will be thrown.

      Parameters:
        `address` - the remote InetAddress to connect to
        `port` - the remote port number
      Throws:
        `SocketException` - may be thrown if the socket cannot be connected to the remote destination
      Since:
        1.4

    - #### disconnect

          protected void disconnect()

      Disconnects a datagram socket from its remote destination.
      Since:
        1.4

    - #### peek

          protected abstract int peek(InetAddress i)
                               throws IOException

      Peek at the packet to see who it is from. Updates the specified `InetAddress` to the address which the packet came from.
      Parameters:
        `i` - an InetAddress object
      Returns:
        the port number which the packet came from.
      Throws:
        `IOException` - if an I/O exception occurs
        `PortUnreachableException` - may be thrown if the socket is connected to a currently unreachable destination. Note, there is no guarantee that the exception will be thrown.

    - #### peekData

          protected abstract int peekData(DatagramPacket p)
                                   throws IOException

      Peek at the packet to see who it is from. The data is copied into the specified `DatagramPacket`. The data is returned, but not consumed, so that a subsequent peekData/receive operation will see the same data.
      Parameters:
        `p` - the Packet Received.
      Returns:
        the port number which the packet came from.
      Throws:
        `IOException` - if an I/O exception occurs
        `PortUnreachableException` - may be thrown if the socket is connected to a currently unreachable destination. Note, there is no guarantee that the exception will be thrown.
      Since:
        1.4

    - #### receive

      Receive the datagram packet.
      Parameters:
        `p` - the Packet Received.
      Throws:
        `IOException` - if an I/O exception occurs while receiving the datagram packet.
        `PortUnreachableException` - may be thrown if the socket is connected to a currently unreachable destination. Note, there is no guarantee that the exception will be thrown.
