Member Function Documentation

bool ActiveOpen	(	Socket_Address const	theaddress,
		bool	setdelay
	)

This function will try and set the socket up for active open to a specified address and port provided by the input parameter.

bool ActiveOpenNonBlocking

(

Socket_Address const

theaddress

)

This function will try and set the socket up for active open to a specified address and port provided by the input parameter (non-blocking version)

int DontLinger

(

)

Turn off the linger flag.

The socket will quickly release buffered items and free up OS resources. You may lose a stream if you use this flag and do not negotiate the close at the application layer.

bool ErrorIsWouldBlocking

(

int

err

)

static TypeHandle getClassType

(

)

[static]

Reimplemented from Socket_IP.

Reimplemented in Buffered_DatagramConnection.

string RecvData

(

int

max_len

)

Read the data from the connection.

Return type : int

• if error 0 if socket closed for read or length is 0 + bytes read ( May be smaller than requested)

int SendData

(

string

str

)

int SetLinger

(

)

will control the behavior of SO_LINGER for a TCP socket

int SetLinger

(

int

interval_seconds

)

will control the behavior of SO_LINGER for a TCP socket

int SetNoDelay

(

bool

flag

)

Disable Nagle algorithm.

Don't delay send to coalesce packets

int SetNoDelay

(

)

Disable Nagle algorithm.

Don't delay send to coalesce packets

int SetSendBufferSize

(

int

insize

)

Just like it sounds.

Sets a buffered socket recv buffer size. This function does not refuse ranges outside hard-coded OS limits

bool ShutdownSend
