Receive a 32-bit Integer from a Socket

See more Socket/SSL/TLS Examples

Demonstrates Socket.ReceiveInt32, which reads exactly four bytes as a signed 32-bit integer and stores the result in the ReceivedInt property. Byte order is selectable.

import sys
import chilkat2

success = False

socket = chilkat2.Socket()

# Connect to the server using TLS.
bTls = True
maxWaitMs = 5000
success = socket.Connect("example.com",5000,bTls,maxWaitMs)
if (success == False):
    print(socket.LastErrorText)
    sys.exit()

# Read exactly four bytes as a signed 32-bit integer and store the result in the ReceivedInt
# property.  The argument selects byte order (True = big-endian, network byte order).
bBigEndian = True
success = socket.ReceiveInt32(bBigEndian)
if (success == False):
    print(socket.LastErrorText)
    sys.exit()

print("Received 32-bit integer: " + str(socket.ReceivedInt))
