Detailed Description

Abstract socket class.

Definition at line 32 of file Socket.h.


Constructor & Destructor Documentation

virtual ~Socket (  ) [virtual]

Destroy a socket.

Closes socket if the socket is still open

Definition at line 38 of file Socket.h.


Member Function Documentation

nsapi_error_t bind ( uint16_t  port )

Bind a specific address to a socket.

Binding a socket specifies the address and port on which to recieve data.

Parameters:
portLocal port to bind
Returns:
0 on success, negative error code on failure.

Definition at line 95 of file Socket.cpp.

nsapi_error_t bind ( const SocketAddress &  address )

Bind a specific address to a socket.

Binding a socket specifies the address and port on which to recieve data. If the IP address is zeroed, only the port is bound.

Parameters:
addressLocal address to bind
Returns:
0 on success, negative error code on failure.

Definition at line 109 of file Socket.cpp.

nsapi_error_t bind ( const char *  address,
uint16_t  port 
)

Bind a specific address to a socket.

Binding a socket specifies the address and port on which to recieve data. If the IP address is zeroed, only the port is bound.

Parameters:
addressNull-terminated local address to bind
portLocal port to bind
Returns:
0 on success, negative error code on failure.

Definition at line 102 of file Socket.cpp.

nsapi_error_t close ( void   )

Close the socket.

Closes any open connection and deallocates any memory associated with the socket. Called from destructor if socket is not closed.

Returns:
0 on success, negative error code on failure

Definition at line 52 of file Socket.cpp.

int join_multicast_group ( const SocketAddress &  address )

Subscribes to an IP multicast group.

Parameters:
addressMulticast group IP address
Returns:
Negative error code on failure

Reimplemented in TCPSocket.

Definition at line 84 of file Socket.cpp.

int leave_multicast_group ( const SocketAddress &  address )

Leave an IP multicast group.

Parameters:
addressMulticast group IP address
Returns:
Negative error code on failure

Definition at line 89 of file Socket.cpp.

MBED_DEPRECATED_SINCE ("mbed-os-5.4", "The behaviour of Socket::attach differs from other attach functions in " "mbed OS and has been known to cause confusion. Replaced by Socket::sigio.") void attach(mbed MBED_DEPRECATED_SINCE ( "mbed-os-5.1"  ,
"The attach function does not support cv-qualifiers. Replaced by ""attach(callback(obj, method))."   
)

Register a callback on state change of the socket.

nsapi_error_t open ( NetworkStack *  stack )

Opens a socket.

Creates a network socket on the network stack of the given network interface. Not needed if stack is passed to the socket's constructor.

Parameters:
stackNetwork stack as target for socket
Returns:
0 on success, negative error code on failure

Definition at line 27 of file Socket.cpp.

void set_blocking ( bool  blocking )

Set blocking or non-blocking mode of the socket.

Initially all sockets are in blocking mode. In non-blocking mode blocking operations such as send/recv/accept return NSAPI_ERROR_WOULD_BLOCK if they can not continue.

set_blocking(false) is equivalent to set_timeout(-1) set_blocking(true) is equivalent to set_timeout(0)

Parameters:
blockingtrue for blocking mode, false for non-blocking mode.

Definition at line 124 of file Socket.cpp.

void set_timeout ( int  timeout )

Set timeout on blocking socket operations.

Initially all sockets have unbounded timeouts. NSAPI_ERROR_WOULD_BLOCK is returned if a blocking operation takes longer than the specified timeout. A timeout of 0 removes the timeout from the socket. A negative value give the socket an unbounded timeout.

set_timeout(0) is equivalent to set_blocking(false) set_timeout(-1) is equivalent to set_blocking(true)

Parameters:
timeoutTimeout in milliseconds

Definition at line 130 of file Socket.cpp.

void sigio ( mbed::Callback< void()>  func )

Register a callback on state change of the socket.

The specified callback will be called on state changes such as when the socket can recv/send/accept successfully and on when an error occurs. The callback may also be called spuriously without reason.

The callback may be called in an interrupt context and should not perform expensive operations such as recv/send calls.

Note! This is not intended as a replacement for a poll or attach-like asynchronous api, but rather as a building block for constructing such functionality. The exact timing of when the registered function is called is not guaranteed and susceptible to change.

Parameters:
funcFunction to call on state change
