Member Function Documentation

virtual PBoolean PSocksSocket::Connect

(

const PString &

address

)

[virtual]

Connect a socket to a remote host on the specified port number. This is typically used by the client or initiator of a communications channel. This connects to a "listening" socket at the other end of the communications channel.

The port number as defined by the object instance construction or the PIPSocket::SetPort() function.

Returns:

PTrue if the channel was successfully connected to the remote host.

Parameters:

address

Address of remote machine to connect to.

Reimplemented from PIPSocket.

virtual PBoolean PSocksSocket::Connect

(

const Address &

addr

)

[virtual]

Parameters:

addr	Address of remote machine to connect to.

virtual PBoolean PSocksSocket::Listen	(	unsigned	queueSize = 5,
		WORD	port = 0,
		Reusability	reuse = AddressIsExclusive
	)			[virtual]

Listen on a socket for a remote host on the specified port number. This may be used for server based applications. A "connecting" socket begins a connection by initiating a connection to this socket. An active socket of this type is then used to generate other "accepting" sockets which establish a two way communications channel with the "connecting" socket.

If the port parameter is zero then the port number as defined by the object instance construction or the PIPSocket::SetPort() function.

For the UDP protocol, the queueSize parameter is ignored.

Returns:

PTrue if the channel was successfully opened.

Parameters:

queueSize	Number of pending accepts that may be queued.
port	Port number to use for the connection.
reuse	Can/Cant listen more than once.

Reimplemented from PTCPSocket.

PBoolean PSocksSocket::Accept

(

)

Open a socket to a remote host on the specified port number. This is an "accepting" socket. When a "listening" socket has a pending connection to make, this will accept a connection made by the "connecting" socket created to establish a link.

The port that the socket uses is the one used in the Listen() command of the socket parameter.

Note that this function will block until a remote system connects to the port number specified in the "listening" socket.

A further note is that when the version that uses a parameter is used, the socket parameter is automatically closed and its operating system handle transferred to the current object. This occurs regardless of the return value of the function.

Returns:

PTrue if the channel was successfully opened.

virtual PBoolean PSocksSocket::Accept

(

PSocket &

socket

)

[virtual]

Open a socket to a remote host on the specified port number. This is an "accepting" socket. When a "listening" socket has a pending connection to make, this will accept a connection made by the "connecting" socket created to establish a link.

The port that the socket uses is the one used in the Listen()# command of the socket# parameter.

Note that this function will block until a remote system connects to the port number specified in the "listening" socket.

Returns:

PTrue if the channel was successfully opened.

Parameters:

socket

Listening socket making the connection.

Reimplemented from PTCPSocket.

virtual PBoolean PSocksSocket::GetLocalAddress

(

Address &

addr

)

[virtual]

Get the Internet Protocol address for the local host.

Returns:

PTrue if the IP number was returned.

Parameters:

addr	Variable to receive hosts IP address

virtual PBoolean PSocksSocket::GetLocalAddress	(	Address &	addr,
		WORD &	port
	)			[virtual]

Parameters:

addr	Variable to receive peer hosts IP address
port	Variable to receive peer hosts port number

virtual PBoolean PSocksSocket::GetPeerAddress

(

Address &

addr

)

[virtual]

Get the Internet Protocol address for the peer host the socket is connected to.

Returns:

PTrue if the IP number was returned.

Parameters:

addr	Variable to receive hosts IP address

virtual PBoolean PSocksSocket::GetPeerAddress	(	Address &	addr,
		WORD &	port
	)			[virtual]

Parameters:

addr	Variable to receive peer hosts IP address
port	Variable to receive peer hosts port number

virtual void PSocksSocket::SetErrorCodes	(	PChannel::Errors	errCode,
		int	osErr
	)			[protected, virtual]

Implements PSocksProtocol.

int PSocksSocket::TransferHandle
