Start a connection to the given host and port. This is non-blocking and will immediately return. Use IsReady() to wait for the connection to be ready.

Starts listening on the given host and port.

Starts listening on the given port using 0.0.0.0 as the host. Note that this will open up the port to the LAN, which may not be what you want.

Closes the socket.

When this socket is listening, attempts to accept a client connection if one is trying to connect. If there is, it will be returned. If no client is waiting, this will return null.

Get the host IP address associated with this socket.

This method is deprecated and should not be used. Consider using IsReady(), IsHungUp(), or Available() instead, depending on your use-case.

This method is deprecated and should not be used. Use IsReady() instead.

Returns true if the socket is ready to be used.

Returns true if the socket state currently has the hangup flag. Note that this flag may be set while there is still data in the buffer that can be read.

Returns the number of bytes available to be read from the socket buffer.

Reads the given number of bytes and return it as a string.

Reads the given number of bytes and return it as a MemoryBuffer.

Writes the given string to the socket as-is. Returns false if the write did not succeed. Note that this behavior differs from Write(const string &in).

Attempts to read up until the next newline character, and outputs the string (including the newline character) in str. If no newline character is encountered, it will return false, leave str unmodified, and no bytes will be consumed from the buffer.

Writes a line of text to the socket. Returns false if the write did not succeed. This behaves the same as WriteRaw(), except a newline is appended.

Reads an 8 bit signed integer from the buffer.

Reads a 16 bit signed integer from the buffer.

Reads a 32 bit signed integer from the buffer.

Reads a 64 bit signed integer from the buffer.

Reads an 8 bit unsigned integer from the buffer.

Reads a 16 bit unsigned integer from the buffer.

Reads a 32 bit unsigned integer from the buffer.

Reads a 64 bit unsigned integer from the buffer.

Reads a 32 bit float from the buffer.

Reads a 64 bit float from the buffer.

Reads a string length from the buffer as a 32 bit unsigned integer, followed by the actual string. This complements Write(const string &in).

Writes an 8 bit signed integer to the socket. Returns false if the write did not succeed.

Writes a 16 bit signed integer to the socket. Returns false if the write did not succeed.

Writes a 32 bit signed integer to the socket. Returns false if the write did not succeed.

Writes a 64 bit signed integer to the socket. Returns false if the write did not succeed.

Writes an 8 bit unsigned integer to the socket. Returns false if the write did not succeed.

Writes a 16 bit unsigned integer to the socket. Returns false if the write did not succeed.

Writes a 32 bit unsigned integer to the socket. Returns false if the write did not succeed.

Writes a 64 bit unsigned integer to the socket. Returns false if the write did not succeed.

Writes a 32 bit float to the socket. Returns false if the write did not succeed.

Writes a 64 bit double to the socket. Returns false if the write did not succeed.

Writes a 32 bit unsigned integer for the length of the string to the socket, followed by the actual string. Returns false if the write did not succeed. Note that this behavior differs from WriteRaw().

Reads a number of bytes from the given MemoryBuffer and writes them to the socket.
