Constructor & Destructor Documentation

ost::TCPSocket::TCPSocket(constIPV4Address&bind,tpport_tport,unsignedbacklog=5,unsignedmss=536)

       A TCP 'server' is created as a TCP socket that is bound to a hardware address and port number on the
       local machine and that has a backlog queue to listen for remote connection requests. If the server cannot
       be created, an exception is thrown.

       Parametersbind local ip address or interface to use.
           port number to bind socket under.
           backlog size of connection request queue.
           mss maximum segment size for accepted streams.

   ost::TCPSocket::TCPSocket(constchar*name,unsignedbacklog=5,unsignedmss=536)
       Create a named tcp socket by service and/or interface id. For IPV4 we use [host:]svc or [host/]svc for
       the string. If we have getaddrinfo, we use that to obtain the addr to bind for.

       Parametersname of host interface and service port to bind.
           backlog size of connection request queue.
           mss maximum segment size for streaming buffers.

   virtualost::TCPSocket::~TCPSocket()[virtual]
       Use base socket handler for ending this socket.

Detailed Description

       TCP sockets are used for stream based connected sessions between two sockets.

       Both error recovery and flow control operate transparently for a TCP socket connection. The TCP socket
       base class is primary used to bind a TCP 'server' for accepting TCP streams.

       An implicit and unique TCPSocket object exists in Common C++ to represent a bound TCP socket acting as a
       'server' for receiving connection requests. This class is not part of TCPStream because such objects
       normally perform no physical I/O (read or write operations) other than to specify a listen backlog queue
       and perform 'accept' operations for pending connections. The Common C++ TCPSocket offers a Peek method to
       examine where the next pending connection is coming from, and a Reject method to flush the next request
       from the queue without having to create a session.

       The TCPSocket also supports a 'OnAccept' method which can be called when a TCPStream related object is
       created from a TCPSocket. By creating a TCPStream from a TCPSocket, an accept operation automatically
       occurs, and the TCPSocket can then still reject the client connection through the return status of it's
       OnAccept method.

IPV4Hostost::TCPSocket::getLocal(tpport_t*port=NULL)const[inline]
       Used to get local bound address.

       References ost::Socket::getIPV4Local().

   IPV4Hostost::TCPSocket::getRequest(tpport_t*port=NULL)const[inline]
       Return address and port of next connection request. This can be used instead of OnAccept() to pre-
       evaluate connection requests.

       Returns
           host requesting a connection.

       Parametersport number of requestor.

       References ost::Socket::getIPV4Sender().

   intost::TCPSocket::getSegmentSize(void)[inline]
       Get the buffer size for servers.

   SOCKETost::TCPSocket::getSocket(void)[inline]
       Fetch out the socket.

   boolost::TCPSocket::isPendingConnection(timeout_ttimeout=TIMEOUT_INF)[inline]
       Used to wait for pending connection requests.

       Returns
           true if data packets available.

       Parameterstimeout in milliseconds. TIMEOUT_INF if not specified.

   virtualboolost::TCPSocket::onAccept(constIPV4Host&ia,tpport_tport)[virtual]
       A method to call in a derived TCPSocket class that is acting as a server when a connection request is
       being accepted. The server can implement protocol specific rules to exclude the remote socket from being
       accepted by returning false. The Peek method can also be used for this purpose.

       Returns
           true if client should be accepted.

       Parametersia internet host address of the client.
           port number of the client.

   voidost::TCPSocket::reject(void)
       Used to reject the next incoming connection request.
