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.

var
success: Boolean;
socket: HCkSocket;
bTls: Boolean;
maxWaitMs: Integer;
bBigEndian: Boolean;

begin
success := False;

socket := CkSocket_Create();

//  Connect to the server using TLS.
bTls := True;
maxWaitMs := 5000;
success := CkSocket_Connect(socket,'example.com',5000,bTls,maxWaitMs);
if (success = False) then
  begin
    Memo1.Lines.Add(CkSocket__lastErrorText(socket));
    Exit;
  end;

//  Read exactly four bytes as a signed 32-bit integer and store the result in the ReceivedInt
//  property.  The argument selects byte order (1 = big-endian, network byte order).
bBigEndian := True;
success := CkSocket_ReceiveInt32(socket,bBigEndian);
if (success = False) then
  begin
    Memo1.Lines.Add(CkSocket__lastErrorText(socket));
    Exit;
  end;
Memo1.Lines.Add('Received 32-bit integer: ' + IntToStr(CkSocket_getReceivedInt(socket)));

CkSocket_Dispose(socket);
