<P>

 TCP sockets are used for stream based connected sessions between two
 sockets.  Both error recovery and flow control operate transparently
 for a TCP socket connection.
 

</P><HR>
<H3><b> <a name="ref0"></a><a name="TCPSocket">TCPSocket</a>(<a href="InetAddress.html">InetAddress</a> &amp;bind, short port, int backlog)  </b><code>[public]</code></H3>
<p>A TCP "server" is created as a TCP socket that is bound
to a hardware address and port number on the local machine
and that has a backlog queue to listen for remote connection
requests.  If the server cannot be created, an exception is
thrown.
</p><p>
</p>
<dl><dt><b>Parameters</b>:<dd>
<table width="100%" border="0">
<tr><td align="left" valign="top">
backlog</td><td align="left" valign="top">
size of connection request queue.</td></tr>
<tr><td align="left" valign="top">
port</td><td align="left" valign="top">
number to bind socket under.</td></tr>
<tr><td align="left" valign="top">
bind</td><td align="left" valign="top">
local ip address or interface to use.</td></tr>
</table>
</dl>
<H3><b> <a name="ref1"></a><a name="TCPSocket">TCPSocket</a>(<a href="InetHostAddress.html">InetHostAddress</a> &amp;host, short port)  </b><code>[public]</code></H3>
<p>Create and connect a TCP socket to a bound TCP "server"
on a specified host bound to a specified port number.  If
the socket cannot be connected, an exception is thrown.
</p><p>
</p>
<dl><dt><b>Parameters</b>:<dd>
<table width="100%" border="0">
<tr><td align="left" valign="top">
port</td><td align="left" valign="top">
number on the host to connect through.</td></tr>
<tr><td align="left" valign="top">
host</td><td align="left" valign="top">
address of internet host to connect with.</td></tr>
</table>
</dl>
<H3><b> <a name="ref2"></a><a name="TCPSocket">TCPSocket</a>(<a href="TCPSocket.html">TCPSocket</a> &amp;server)  </b><code>[public]</code></H3>
<p>Create a TCP socket that is an "accepted" client connection
from a TCP socket that has been bound as a server.  This new
socket is directly connected to the remote socket that had
made a connection "request" into the servers backlog queue
and can be thought of as being the APE method of performing
an "accept()" call.
</p><p>
</p>
<dl><dt><b>Parameters</b>:<dd>
<table width="100%" border="0">
<tr><td align="left" valign="top">
server</td><td align="left" valign="top">
socket to accept connection from.</td></tr>
</table>
</dl>
<H3><b> <a name="ref3"></a><a name="TCPSocket">TCPSocket</a>(<a href="TCPSocket.html">TCPSocket</a> *server)  </b><code>[public]</code></H3>
<p>Alternately create a TCP socket that is "accepted" from a
casted pointer to a TCPSocket derived object acting as a
bound TCP server.  This new socket is directly connected to
the remote socket that had made a connection "request" into
the servers backlog queue.
</p><p>
</p>
<dl><dt><b>Parameters</b>:<dd>
<table width="100%" border="0">
<tr><td align="left" valign="top">
server</td><td align="left" valign="top">
pointer to accept connection from.</td></tr>
</table>
</dl>
<H3><b> <a name="ref4"></a><a name="TCPSocket">TCPSocket</a>(void)  </b><code>[public]</code></H3>
<p>Create an unconnected TCP socket.  Mostly for internal use.
</p>
<H3><b>bool <a name="ref5"></a><a name="OnAccept">OnAccept</a>(<a href="InetHostAddress.html">InetHostAddress</a> ia, short port)  </b><code>[public virtual]</code></H3>
<p>A method to call in a derived TCPSocket class that is acting
as a server when a connection request is being accepted.  The
server can implement protocol specific rules to exclude the
remote socket from being accepted by returning false.  The
Peek method can also be used for this purpose.
</p><p>
</p>
<dl><dt><b>Parameters</b>:<dd>
<table width="100%" border="0">
<tr><td align="left" valign="top">
ia</td><td align="left" valign="top">
internet host address of the client.</td></tr>
<tr><td align="left" valign="top">
port</td><td align="left" valign="top">
number of the client.</td></tr>
</table>
</dl>
<dl><dt><b>Returns</b>:<dd>
true if client should be accepted.</dl>
<H3><b>int <a name="ref6"></a><a name="Readline">Readline</a>(char *buf, size_t max)  </b><code>[public]</code></H3>
<p>Many TCP protocols involve the use of line oriented commands
and data.  The TCP readline method provides a very effecient
means to read a single line of input from a TCP socket.  This
method does not use external buffering and is presumed safe
from buffer overruns.

pointer to buffer.</td></tr>
