RawSocket class abstract interface

A TCP connection.

A socket connection connects a local socket to a remote socket. Data, as Uint8Lists, is received by the local socket and made available by the read method, and can be sent to the remote socket through the write method.

The Stream interface of this class provides event notification about when a certain change has happened, for example when data has become available (RawSocketEvent.read) or when the remote end has stopped listening (RawSocketEvent.closed).

Properties

address InternetAddress
The InternetAddress used to connect this socket.
no setter
first Future<RawSocketEvent>
The first element of this stream.
no setterinherited
hashCode int
The hash code for this object.
no setterinherited
isBroadcast bool
Whether this stream is a broadcast stream.
no setterinherited
isEmpty Future<bool>
Whether this stream contains any elements.
no setterinherited
last Future<RawSocketEvent>
The last element of this stream.
no setterinherited
length Future<int>
The number of elements in this stream.
no setterinherited
port int
The port used by this socket.
no setter
readEventsEnabled bool
Set or get, if the RawSocket should listen for RawSocketEvent.read and RawSocketEvent.readClosed events. Default is true.
getter/setter pair
remoteAddress InternetAddress
The remote InternetAddress connected to by this socket.
no setter
remotePort int
The remote port connected to by this socket.
no setter
runtimeType Type
A representation of the runtime type of the object.
no setterinherited
single Future<RawSocketEvent>
The single element of this stream.
no setterinherited
writeEventsEnabled bool
Set or get, if the RawSocket should listen for RawSocketEvent.write events. Default is true. This is a one-shot listener, and writeEventsEnabled must be set to true again to receive another write event.
getter/setter pair
