The constructor required for 'SimpleTCPStream', a more C++ style version of the SimpleTCPStream class.

ost::SimpleTCPStream::SimpleTCPStream (TCPSocket & server, size_t size = 512)

Create a TCP stream by accepting a connection from a bound TCP socket acting as a server. This performs an 'accept' call.

Parameters:

ost::SimpleTCPStream::SimpleTCPStream (const IPV4Host & host, tpport_t port, size_t size = 512)

Create a TCP stream by connecting to a TCP socket (on a remote machine).

Parameters:

ost::SimpleTCPStream::SimpleTCPStream (const SimpleTCPStream & source)

A copy constructor creates a new stream buffer.

Parameters:

virtual ost::SimpleTCPStream::~SimpleTCPStream () [virtual]

Flush and empty all buffers, and then remove the allocated buffers.

void ost::SimpleTCPStream::Connect (const IPV4Host & host, tpport_t port, size_t size) [protected]

Create a TCP stream by connecting to a TCP socket (on a remote machine).

Parameters:

void ost::SimpleTCPStream::endStream (void) [protected]

Used to terminate the buffer space and cleanup the socket connection. This fucntion is called by the destructor.

void ost::SimpleTCPStream::flush () [inline]

References __EXPORT.

bool ost::SimpleTCPStream::isPending (Pending pend, timeout_t timeout = TIMEOUT_INF) [virtual]

Get the status of pending stream data. This method can be used to examine if input or output is waiting, or if an error or disconnect has occured on the stream. If a read buffer contains data then input is ready. If write buffer contains data, it is first flushed and then checked.

Parameters:

Reimplemented from ost::Socket.

ssize_t ost::SimpleTCPStream::peek (char * bytes, size_t length, timeout_t timeout = 0)

Peek at the incoming data. The data is copied into the buffer but is not removed from the input queue. The function then returns the number of bytes currently pending to receive.

Parameters:

Returns:

ssize_t ost::SimpleTCPStream::read (char * bytes, size_t length, timeout_t timeout = 0)

Read bytes into a buffer. <long-description>

Parameters:

Returns:

ssize_t ost::SimpleTCPStream::write (const char * bytes, size_t length, timeout_t timeout = 0)

Write bytes to buffer. <long-description>

Parameters:

Returns:
