Move a Connection into a Socket Set

Demonstrates Socket.TakeSocket, which moves a connection into a newly created member of this object's socket set. After one or more calls, the object acts as a set of sockets.

Background. A socket set groups multiple connections so they can be monitored together with the SelectForReading and SelectForWriting methods. After success, the source socket holds no connection.

Note

This example is intended for running within a Chilkat.Js embedded JavaScript engine. All Chilkat JavaScript examples require Chilkat v11.4.0 or greater.

JavaScript

var success = false;

var listenSock = new CkSocket();

success = listenSock.BindAndListen(5000,25);
if (success == false) {
    console.log(listenSock.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

var connectedSock = new CkSocket();
success = listenSock.AcceptNext(20000,connectedSock);
if (success == false) {
    console.log(listenSock.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

//  Move the connection out of connectedSock and into a newly created member of this object's socket
//  set.  After one or more such calls, socketSet acts as a set of connected sockets (useful with the
//  SelectForReading / SelectForWriting methods).  After success, connectedSock holds no connection.
var socketSet = new CkSocket();
success = socketSet.TakeSocket(connectedSock);
if (success == false) {
    console.log(socketSet.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

console.log("Connection added to the socket set.");
