Member Function Documentation

BGServerSocket::BGServerSocket (long port)

Creates a server socket on a specified port.

Parameters:

port

Port number, or 0 to use any free port

BGServerSocket::BGServerSocket (long port, long backlog)

Creates a server socket and binds it to the specified local port number.

Parameters:

port	Port number, or 0 to use any free port
backlog	Maximum length of the queue

BGServerSocket::BGServerSocket (long port, long backlog, BGInetAddress bindAddress)

Create a server with the specified port, listen backlog, and local IP address to bind to.

Parameters:

port	Port number, or 0 to use any free port
backlog	Maximum length of the queue
bindAddress	Local InetAddress the server will bind to

virtual BGString BGServerSocket::toString () [virtual]

Generates string representation of this object.

This is useful for logging, etc. - This method will replace dump !

Returns:: Stringrepresentation of this object

Reimplemented from BGObject.

virtual unsigned long BGServerSocket::hash () [virtual]

Generates a 'unique' hashvalue of this object.

Note: The returned pointer will point to class buffer. Therefore do not delete it, dupe it if you need it outside of instance lifecycle.

Returns:: Hash of this object

Reimplemented from BGObject.

virtual bool BGServerSocket::equals (BGObject & obj) [virtual]

Returns true, if specified object is equal to own instance.

First we compare class identifier. If both object has same class type, we dispatch to compare method, which should always be able to compare instances with same type.

Parameters:

obj

Object reference to compare with us
