bool flush

(

)

Sends the most recently queued data now.

This only has meaning if set_collect_tcp() has been set to true.

Reimplemented from iostream.

int getTcpHeaderSize

(

)

Returns the header size for datagrams.

See set_tcp_header_size().

Reimplemented from SSReader.

bool isClosed

(

)

Reimplemented from SSReader.

setTcpHeaderSize

(

int

tcp_header_size

)

Sets the header size for datagrams.

At the present, legal values for this are 0, 2, or 4; this specifies the number of bytes to use encode the datagram length at the start of each TCP datagram. Sender and receiver must independently agree on this.

Reimplemented from SSReader.
