isValid
Returns true if the socket is in valid state, closes the socket and returns false otherwise.
port
Returns the port number for the socket.
readBytes(numBytes)
Reads the socket until its readBuffer is numBytes long, then returns a Sequence
containing the first numBytes of readBuffer's contents and clips that section from the readBuffer.
readListMessage
A shortcut for List fromEncodedList(socket readMessage).
readMessage
Empties the readBuffer and reads a 4 byte uint32 in network byte order.
This number is the number of bytes in the message payload which are
then read into the socket's readBuffer. The readBuffer is returned.
readTimeout
Returns the length of time in seconds for read timeouts on the socket.
readUntilSeq(aSequence)
Reads the socket until its readBuffer contains aSequence, then returns a Sequence
containing the readBuffer's contents up to (but not including) aSequence and clips that section from the readBuffer.
serverOpen
Opens the socket as a stream, binds it to its ipAddress and calls asyncListen to prepare the socket to accept connections.
Returns self on success or an Error object on error.
serverWaitForConnection
Waits for a connection or timeout. When a connection is received, this method returns the connection socket.
An Error object is returned on timeour or error.
setAcceptTimeout(seconds)
Sets the length of time in seconds for accept timeouts on the socket. Returns self.
setBytesPerRead(numberOfBytes)
Sets number of bytes to read per read call. Returns self.
setBytesPerWrite(numberOfBytes)
Sets number of bytes to write per write call. Returns self.
setConnectTimeout(seconds)
Sets the length of time in seconds for connect timeouts on the socket. Returns self.
setHost(hostName)
Translates hostName to an IP using asynchronous DNS and sets
the host attribute. Returns self.
setHost(hostNameOrIpString)
Set the host for the socket. Returns self on success, an Error object otherwise.
setIpAddress(ipAddressObject)
Sets the ipAddress for the socket. Returns self. The setHost() method should generally be used to set the host instead of this method.
setNoDelay
Sets the socket to be no-delay. Returns self on success or nil on error.
setPort(portNumber)
Sets the port number for the socket, returns self.
setReadTimeout(seconds)
Sets the length of time in seconds for read timeouts on the socket. Returns self.
setSocketReadBufferSize(numberOfBytes)
Sets the read buffer size for the socket. Returns self on success or nil on error.
setSocketReadLowWaterMark(numberOfBytes)
Sets the read low water mark for the socket. Returns self on success or nil on error.
setSocketWriteBufferSize(numberOfBytes)
Sets the write buffer size for the socket. Returns self on success or nil on error.
setSocketWriteLowWaterMark(numberOfBytes)
Sets the write low water mark for the socket. Returns self on success or nil on error.
setWriteTimeout(seconds)
Sets the length of time in seconds for write timeouts on the socket. Returns self.
streamOpen
Opens the socket in stream mode. Returns self.
streamRead(numberOfBytes)
Reads numberOfBytes from the socket into the socket's readBuffer.
Returns self when all bytes are read or an Error object on error.

Waits for incoming data on the socket and when found, reads any available data and returns self.
Returns self on success or an Error object on error or timeout.
streamReadWhileOpen
Reads the stream into the socket's readBuffer until it closes.
Returns self on success or an Error object on error.
streamWrite(buffer, optionalProgressBlock)
Writes buffer to the socket.
If optionalProgressBlock is supplied, it is periodically called with the number of bytes written as an argument.
Returns self on success or an Error object on error.
udpOpen
Opens the socket in UDP (connectionless) mode. Returns self.
udpRead(ipAddress, numBytes)
Waits for and reads numBytes of udp data from the specified ipAddress into the socket's readBuffer.
Returns self on success or an Error object on error.
udpReadNextChunk(ipAddress)
Waits to receive UDP data from the specified ipAddress.
As soon as any data is available, it reads all of it into the socket's readBuffer.
Returns self on success or an Error object on error.
udpWrite
Same as asyncUdpWrite.
writeFromBuffer(optionalProgressBlock)
Writes the contents of the socket's writeBuffer to the socket.
If optionalProgressBlock is supplied, it is periodically called with the number of bytes written as an argument.
Returns self on success or an Error object on error.
writeListMessage(aList)
A shortcut for writeMessage(aList asEncodedList).
writeMessage(aSeq)
Writes a 4 byte uint32 in network byte order containing the size of aSeq.
Then writes the bytes in aSeq and returns self.
