RawSynchronousSocket class

A low-level class for communicating synchronously over a TCP socket.

Warning: RawSynchronousSocket should probably only be used to connect to 'localhost'. The operations below will block the calling thread to wait for a response from the network. The thread can process no other events while waiting for these operations to complete. RawSynchronousSocket is not suitable for applications that require high performance or asynchronous I/O such as a server. Instead such applications should use the non-blocking sockets and asynchronous operations in the Socket or RawSocket classes.

Methods

available() → int
The number of received and unread bytes in the socket that can be read.
closeSync() → void
Closes the RawSynchronousSocket.
noSuchMethod(Invocation invocation) → dynamic
Invoked when a nonexistent method or property is accessed.
inherited
readIntoSync(List<int> buffer, [int start = 0, int? end]) → int
Reads bytes into an existing buffer.
readSync(int bytes) → List<int>?
Reads up to bytes bytes from the socket.
shutdown(SocketDirection direction) → void
Shuts down a socket in the provided direction.
toString() → String
A string representation of this object.
inherited
writeFromSync(List<int> buffer, [int start = 0, int? end]) → void
Writes from a buffer to the socket.

Operators

operator ==(Object other) → bool
The equality operator.

Static Methods

connectSync(dynamic host, int port) → RawSynchronousSocket
Creates a new socket connection and returns a RawSynchronousSocket.
