bool Network::Server::accept

(

Connection *

clientSocket

)

Accept a new Client from one of the connections (only when listening on TCP)

Parameters

clientSocket

Object to be filled with the incoming client (the object has to be allocated)

Returns

true if success else false

bool Network::Server::close

(

)

close all the connections

Returns

true if success else false

size_t Network::Server::getMaximumNbConnections ( )

static

get the maximum number of connections a server can have.

Returns

maximum number of connections of a server.

Vector< Connection * >::Size Network::Server::getNumConnections

(

)

const

get the number of connection this server has

Returns

Actual number of connections of this server.

bool Network::Server::listen	(	unsigned short	port,
		SockType	sockType = SockType::TCP,
		IpFamily	ipFamily = IpFamily::Undefined,
		int	maxClients = 100
	)

Add a listen address to this server.

Parameters

port	Port onto listen.
sockType	TCP or UDP
ipFamily	IPv4, IPV6 or Undefined for both
maxClients	Maximum number of clients accepted (Only for TCP)

Returns

true if success else false

		const String &	service,
		SockType	sockType = SockType::TCP,
		IpFamily	ipFamily = IpFamily::Undefined,
		int	maxClients = 100
	)

Add a listen address to this server.

Parameters

address	Address as String (IP or domain name)
service	to look for.
sockType	TCP or UDP
ipFamily	IPv4, IPV6 or Undefined for both
maxClients	Maximum number of clients accepted (Only for TCP)

Returns

true if success else false

bool Network::Server::listen	(	const String &	address,
		unsigned int	port,
		SockType	sockType = SockType::TCP,
		IpFamily	ipFamily = IpFamily::Undefined,
		int	maxClients = 100
	)

Add a listen address to this server.

Parameters

address	Address as String (IP or domain name)
port	Port onto listen.
sockType	TCP or UDP
ipFamily	IPv4, IPV6 or Undefined for both
maxClients	Maximum number of clients accepted (Only for TCP)

Returns

true if success else false

bool Network::Server::listen	(	const Address &	addrInfo,
		int	maxClients = 100
	)

Add a listen address to this server.

Parameters

addrInfo	Address to be binded
maxClients	Maximum number of clients accepted (Only for TCP)

Returns

true if success else false

int Network::Server::receive	(	char *	buffer,
		int	maxSize,
		Address *	addressFrom
	)

Wait to receive a message from one of the connections.

Parameters

buffer	to be filled with the new message.
maxSize	Maximum size of the message in bytes
addressFrom	Address to be filled with the incoming sender (the object has to be already allocated)

Returns

number of bytes read
