API Documentation for minFraud service

ccfs = new CreditCardFraudDetection(boolean s);

This creates a new CreditCardFraudDetection object and set isSecure to s if isSecure is false then it uses regular HTTP. if isSecure is true then it uses secure HTTPS.

ccfb = new CreditCardFraudDetection.Builder()

Additionally you can use the Builder object to create a CreditCardFraudDetection instance that either uses the JVM settings for proxies (useSystemProxies()) or a custom proxy (specified by hostname and port, e.g. useProxy("host", 3128)).

Here is a full example:

ccfs =  new CreditCardFraudDetection.Builder().
                useProxy("proxy-host", 6568).
                build();

ccfs.input(HashMap h);

Takes a Hashmap and uses it as input for the server See http://dev.maxmind.com/minfraud for details on input fields.

ccfs.query();

Queries the server with the fields passed to the input method and stores the output.

HashMap h = ccfs.output();

Returns the HashMap containing the output from the server. See http://dev.maxmind.com/minfraud for details on output fields.
