TCPServerSocket

Interface TCPServerSocket

access this type via: net.TCPServerSocket (provides, requires or uses)

Bind a TCP 'server' or 'master' socket. A TCPSocket can be used to accept new connections from server sockets.

Constants

char ANY_ADDRESS[]

char ANY_ADDRESS_v4[]

char ANY_ADDRESS_v6[]

Functions

bool bind(char address[], int port, optional bool reuseAddress)

void unbind()

Constants

ANY_ADDRESS Bind to any and all IP addresses of the host.

ANY_ADDRESS_v4 Bind to any and all IPv4 addresses of the host.

ANY_ADDRESS_v6 Bind to any and all IPv6 addresses of the host.

bool bind(char address[], int port, optional bool reuseAddress)

Bind a TCP 'server' or 'master' socket to a given IP address and port number. The optional parameter reuseAddress defaults to false, but if set to true the system will immediately re-use the given address and port number after a recent unbind (rather than being forced to wait e.g. for a TIME_WAIT period).

void unbind()

Unbind this socket (allowing other sockets to bind to this address/port).
