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.

bool success = false;

Chilkat.Socket socket = new Chilkat.Socket();

//  Connect to the server using TLS.
bool bTls = true;
int maxWaitMs = 5000;
success = socket.Connect("example.com",5000,bTls,maxWaitMs);
if (success == false) {
    Debug.WriteLine(socket.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

//  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).
bool bBigEndian = true;
success = socket.ReceiveInt32(bBigEndian);
if (success == false) {
    Debug.WriteLine(socket.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

Debug.WriteLine("Received 32-bit integer: " + Convert.ToString(socket.ReceivedInt));
