Receive Text up to a Matching Sequence

See more Socket/SSL/TLS Examples

Demonstrates Socket.ReceiveUntilMatch, which receives bytes until an exact byte sequence is found. The match string is encoded using StringCharset and compared byte-for-byte.

Local $bSuccess = False

$oSocket = ObjCreate("Chilkat.Socket")

;  Connect to the server using TLS.  The 3rd argument enables the TLS handshake after the TCP
;  connection succeeds; the 4th is the maximum time to wait, in milliseconds.
Local $bTls = True
Local $iMaxWaitMs = 5000
$bSuccess = $oSocket.Connect("example.com",5000,$bTls,$iMaxWaitMs)
If ($bSuccess = False) Then
    ConsoleWrite($oSocket.LastErrorText & @CRLF)
    Exit
EndIf

;  StringCharset controls the character encoding used when sending and receiving text.
$oSocket.StringCharset = "utf-8"
;  Send a request using a simple application-defined text protocol in which each message ends with a
;  CRLF.
Local $sCommand = "STATUS" & @CRLF
$bSuccess = $oSocket.SendString($sCommand)
If ($bSuccess = False) Then
    ConsoleWrite($oSocket.LastErrorText & @CRLF)
    Exit
EndIf

;  Receive bytes until an exact byte sequence is found.  The match string is encoded using
;  StringCharset and compared byte-for-byte.  Here the server marks the end of its response with an
;  application-defined marker.

If ($oSocket.LastMethodSuccess = False) Then
    ConsoleWrite($oSocket.LastErrorText & @CRLF)
    Exit
EndIf
