Receive an Exact Number of Bytes as Encoded Text

See more Socket/SSL/TLS Examples

Demonstrates Socket.ReceiveNBytesENC, which receives exactly the requested number of bytes and returns them encoded using a named encoding. It waits until the full count is received.

use chilkat();

$success = 0;

$socket = chilkat::CkSocket->new();

#  Connect to the server using TLS.
$bTls = 1;
$maxWaitMs = 5000;
$success = $socket->Connect("example.com",5000,$bTls,$maxWaitMs);
if ($success == 0) {
    print $socket->lastErrorText() . "\r\n";
    exit;
}

#  MaxReadIdleMs controls the inactivity limit for receiving.  The ReceiveNBytesENC call will fail if
#  incoming bytes halt for longer than this many milliseconds before the full amount is received.
$socket->put_MaxReadIdleMs(15000);

#  Receive exactly the requested number of bytes and return them encoded using the named encoding.
#  Unlike ReceiveBytesENC, this waits until the full count has been received.
$hex = $socket->receiveNBytesENC(16,"hex");
if ($socket->get_LastMethodSuccess() == 0) {
    print $socket->lastErrorText() . "\r\n";
    exit;
}

print $hex . "\r\n";
