class SocketInput

package sys.net

extends Input

Available on lua

Constructor

`new(tcp:TcpClient)`

Methods

Inherited Variables

Defined by Input

`bigEndian:Bool`

Endianness (word byte order) used when reading numbers.

If true, big-endian is used, otherwise little-endian is used.

Inherited Methods

Defined by Input

`close():Void`

Close the input source.

Behaviour while reading after calling this method is unspecified.

`read(nbytes:Int):Bytes`

Read and return nbytes bytes.

`readAll(?bufsize:Int):Bytes`

Read and return all available data.

The bufsize optional argument specifies the size of chunks by which data is read. Its default value is target-specific.

`readDouble():Float`

Read a 64-bit double-precision floating point number.

Endianness is specified by the bigEndian property.

`readFloat():Float`

Read a 32-bit floating point number.

Endianness is specified by the bigEndian property.

`readFullBytes(s:Bytes, pos:Int, len:Int):Void`

Read len bytes and write them into s to the position specified by pos.

Unlike readBytes, this method tries to read the exact len amount of bytes.

`readInt16():Int`

Read a 16-bit signed integer.

Endianness is specified by the bigEndian property.

`readInt24():Int`

Read a 24-bit signed integer.

Endianness is specified by the bigEndian property.

`readInt32():Int`

Read a 32-bit signed integer.

Endianness is specified by the bigEndian property.

`readInt8():Int`

Read a 8-bit signed integer.

`readLine():String`

Read a line of text separated by CR and/or LF bytes.

The CR/LF characters are not included in the resulting string.

`readString(len:Int, ?encoding:Encoding):String`

Read and len bytes as a string.

`readUInt16():Int`

Read a 16-bit unsigned integer.

Endianness is specified by the bigEndian property.

`readUInt24():Int`

Read a 24-bit unsigned integer.

Endianness is specified by the bigEndian property.

`readUntil(end:Int):String`

Read a string until a character code specified by end is occurred.

The final character is not included in the resulting string.
