This class is a base class for the FBB::ServerSocket and
FBB::ClientSocket classes. Since it is designed as a base class, all its
constructors are protected.
NAMESPACE
FBB
All constructors, members, operators and manipulators, mentioned in this
man-page, are defined in the namespace FBB.
INHERITS FROM
FBB::InetAddress
PROTECTED CONSTRUCTORS
SocketBase(size_t port):
This constructor creates a SocketBase to be used with
ServerSocket-objects, listening on port. The proper completion of
this constructor should be checked by calling the SocketBase::verify()
member (see below).
SocketBase(std::string const &host, unit_16_t port):
This constructor creates a FBB::SocketBase to be used with a
ClientSocket-object, connecting to hostname, at port `port'. The
proper completion of this constructor should be checked by calling the
SocketBase::verify() member (see below).
SocketBase(int socket, sockaddr_in const &address):
This constructor constructs a FBB::SocketBase object initializing
its socket and FBB::InetAddress part from available external objects.
The copy constructor is not available.
MEMBER FUNCTIONS
All members of FBB::InetAddress are
available, as FBB::SocketBase inherits from this class.
bool debug() const:
This accessor returns true if the socket's debug
(SO_DEBUG) socket option is active. It throws an FBB::Errno exception
if the status of the debug option could not be determined.
bool reuse() const:
This accessor returns true if the socket's reuse
(SO_REUSEADDR) socket option is active. It throws an FBB::Errno
exception if the status of the reuse option could not be determined.
void setDebug(bool trueIsOn) const:
This member may be used to modify the socket's debug
(SO_DEBUG) socket option. It throws an FBB::Errno exception
if the socket's debug option could not be modified.
void setReuse(bool trueIsOn) const:
This member may be used to modify the socket's reuse
(SO_REUSEADDR) socket option. It throws an FBB::Errno exception
if the socket's reuse option could not be modified.
int socket() const:
This accessor returns the FBB::SocketBase's socket value.
void verify() const:
This operator throws an Errno exception if the first or second
SocketBase constructor did not properly complete. It should be called
before using any other Glob member.
