Inherited Methods

Defined by Socket

setBlocking(b:Bool):Void

Change the blocking mode of the socket. A blocking socket is the default behavior. A non-blocking socket will abort blocking operations immediately by throwing a haxe.io.Error.Blocked value.

setFastSend(b:Bool):Void

Allows the socket to immediately send the data when written to its output : this will cause less ping but might increase the number of packets / data size, especially when doing a lot of small writes.

waitForRead():Void

Block until some data is available for read on the socket.
