RawSynchronousSocket abstract class

A low-level class for communicating synchronously over a TCP socket.

Warning: RawSynchronousSocket should probably only be used to connect to 'localhost'. The operations below will block the calling thread to wait for a response from the network. The thread can process no other events while waiting for these operations to complete. RawSynchronousSocket is not suitable for applications that require high performance or asynchronous I/O such as a server. Instead such applications should use the non-blocking sockets and asynchronous operations in the Socket or RawSocket classes.

Static Methods

connectSync(host, int port) → RawSynchronousSocket: Creates a new socket connection and returns a RawSynchronousSocket.

Constructors

RawSynchronousSocket()

Properties

address → InternetAddress read-only: The InternetAddress used to connect this socket.
port → int read-only: The port used by this socket.
remoteAddress → InternetAddress read-only: The remote InternetAddress connected to by this socket.
remotePort → int read-only: The remote port connected to by this socket.
hashCode → int read-only, inherited: The hash code for this object.
runtimeType → Type read-only, inherited: A representation of the runtime type of the object.

Operators

operator ==(other) → bool inherited: The equality operator.

Methods

available() → int: Returns the number of received and unread bytes in the socket that can be read.
closeSync() → void: Closes the RawSynchronousSocket.
readIntoSync(List<int> buffer, [ int start = 0, int end ]) → int: Reads into an existing List<int> from the socket into the range: [start,end).
readSync(int bytes) → List<int>: Reads up to bytes bytes from the socket.
shutdown(SocketDirection direction) → void: Shutdown a socket in the provided direction.
writeFromSync(List<int> buffer, [ int start = 0, int end ]) → void: Writes data from a specified range in a List<int> to the socket.
noSuchMethod(Invocation invocation) → dynamic inherited: Invoked when a non-existent method or property is accessed.
toString() → String inherited: Returns a string representation of this object.
