Name

SPVM::IO::Socket - Sockets

Description

IO::Socket class in SPVM represents a socket.

Usage

use IO::Socket;

Details

IO::Socket is an abstract class.

See "Well Known Child Classes" about child classes of this class.

Socket Constant Values

See Sys::Socket::Constant about constant values for sockets.

Goroutine

Connect, accept, read, and write operations in IO::Socket class work with goroutines.

Non-blocking mode of a IO::Socket object is enabled.

If an IO wait occurs, control is transferred to another goroutine.

This allows you to write connect, accept, read, and write operations as if they were synchronous.

Instance Methods

init

protected method init : void ($options : object[] = undef);

Options:

The following options are available adding to the options for IO::Handle#init method.

[Name][Type][Default Value]

  • Domain : Int = 0

  • Type : Int = 0

  • Proto : Int = 0

  • Timeout : Double = 0.0

  • Listen : Int = 0

The blocking mode of the socket is set to non-blocking mode.

DESTROY

method DESTROY : void ();

Closes the socket by "close" method if the socket is opened.

sockdomain

method sockdomain : int ();

Returns the value of "Domain" field.

socktype

method socktype : int ();

Returns the value of "Type" field.

protocol

method protocol : int ();

Returns the value of "Proto" field.

timeout

method timeout : double ();

Returns the value of "Timeout" field.

set_timeout

method set_timeout : void ($timeout : double);

Sets "Timeout" field to $timeout.

set_blocking

method set_blocking : void ($blocking : int);

This method is the same as IO::Handle#set_blocking method, but if a true value is given to $blocking, an exception is thrown.

Exceptions:

Calling set_blocking method given a true value on an IO::Socket object is forbidden.

socket

protected method socket : void ();

Opens a socket using "Domain" field, "Type" field, and "Protocal" field.

IO::Handle#FD field is set to the file descriptor of the socket.

This method calls Sys#socket method.

Exceptions:

Exceptions thrown by Sys#socket method could be thrown.

connect

protected method connect : void ();

Performs connect operation.

This method calls Sys#connect method given the value of IO::Handle#FD field and the value of "Sockaddr" field.

If connect operation need to be performed again for IO wait, Go#gosched_io_write method is called given the value of IO::Handle#FD field and the value of "Timeout" field.

And when the current goroutine is returned, this method retries connect operation.

If timeout occurs, an exception is thrown set eval_error_id to the basic type ID of the Go::Error::IOTimeout class.

Exceptions:

Exceptions thrown by Sys#connect method could be thrown.

Exceptions thrown by Go#gosched_io_write method could be thrown.

bind

protected method bind : void ($sockaddr : Sys::Socket::Sockaddr);

This method calls Sys#bind method given the value of IO::Handle#FD field and the value of "Sockaddr" field.

Exceptions:

Exceptions thrown by Sys#bind method could be thrown.

listen

protected method listen : void ();

Does the same thing that listen system call does given the file descriptor IO::Handle#FD field.

This method calls Sys#listen.

Exceptions:

Exceptions thrown by Sys#listen method could be thrown.

accept

method accept : IO::Socket ($peer_ref : Sys::Socket::Sockaddr[] = undef);

Performs accept operation and returns a client socket object.

The type of the returned object is the type of this instance.

This method calls Sys#accept method given the value of IO::Handle#FD field and $peer_ref.

If accept operation need to be performed again for IO wait, Go#gosched_io_read method is called given the value of IO::Handle#FD field and the value of "Timeout" field.

And when the current goroutine is returned, this method retries accept operation.

If timeout occurs, an exception is thrown set eval_error_id to the basic type ID of the Go::Error::IOTimeout class.

$peer_ref at index 0 is set to a client socket address if specified.

Exceptions:

Exceptions thrown by Sys#accept method could be thrown.

Exceptions thrown by Go#gosched_io_read method could be thrown.

shutdown

method shutdown : void ($how : int);

Performs shutdown operation given the way $how.

This method calls Sys#shutdown method.

See Sys::Socket::Constant about constant values given to $how.

  • SHUT_RD

  • SHUT_WR

  • SHUT_RDWR

Exceptions:

Exceptions thrown by Sys#shutdown method could be thrown.

close

method close : void ();

Performs close operation.

This method calls Sys::Socket#close method

Exceptions:

If this socket is not opened or already closed, an excetpion is thrown.

recvfrom

method recvfrom : int ($buffer : mutable string, $length : int, $flags : int, $from_ref : Sys::Socket::Sockaddr[], $offset : int = 0)

Performs recvfrom operation and returns read length.

This method calls Sys#recvfrom method given the value of IO::Handle#FD field, $buffer, $length, $flags, $from_ref, $offset, and returns its return value.

If recvfrom operation need to be performed again for IO wait, Go#gosched_io_read method is called given the value of IO::Handle#FD field and the value of "Timeout" field.

And when the current goroutine is returned, this method retries recvfrom operation.

If timeout occurs, an exception is thrown set eval_error_id to the basic type ID of the Go::Error::IOTimeout class.

Exceptions:

Exceptions thrown by Sys#recvfrom method could be thrown.

Exceptions thrown by Go#gosched_io_read method could be thrown.
