  inet::TcpListener

TcpListener is a server socket that listens to a local well known port for incoming TcpSockets.

Slots

accept

TcpSocket accept()

Accept the next incoming connection. This method blocks the calling thread until a new connection is established. If this listener's receiveTimeout option is configured, then accept will timeout with an IOErr.

Source

bind

native TcpListener bind(IpAddress addr, Int port, Int backlog := 50)

Bind this listener to the specified local address. If addr is null then the default IpAddress for the local host is selected. If port is null an ephemeral port is selected. Throw IOErr if the port is already bound or the bind fails. Return this.

Source

close

native Bool close()

Close this server socket. This method is guaranteed to never throw an IOErr. Return true if the socket was closed successfully or false if the socket was closed abnormally.

Source

isBound

native Bool isBound()

Is this socket bound to a local address and port.

Source

isClosed

native Bool isClosed()

Is this socket closed.

Source

localAddress

native IpAddress localAddress()

Get the bound local address or null if unbound.

Source

localPort

native Int localPort()

Get the bound local port or null if unbound.

Source

make

new make()

Make a new unbound TCP server socket.

Source

options

SocketOptions options()

Access the SocketOptions used to tune this server socket. The following options apply to TcpListeners:

  • receiveBufferSize
  • reuseAddress
  • receiveTimeout Accessing other option fields will throw UnsupportedErr.
