Receive Text up to a Delimiter Byte

See more Socket/SSL/TLS Examples

Demonstrates Socket.ReceiveStringUntilByte, which receives bytes until a specific raw byte value is found, then decodes the preceding bytes using StringCharset. The delimiter is excluded from the returned string.

<?php

include("chilkat.php");

$success = false;

$socket = new CkSocket();

//  Connect to the server using TLS.  The 3rd argument enables the TLS handshake after the TCP
//  connection succeeds; the 4th is the maximum time to wait, in milliseconds.
$bTls = true;
$maxWaitMs = 5000;
$success = $socket->Connect('example.com',5000,$bTls,$maxWaitMs);
if ($success == false) {
    print $socket->lastErrorText() . "\n";
    exit;
}

//  StringCharset controls the character encoding used when sending and receiving text.
$socket->put_StringCharset('utf-8');
//  Send a request using a simple application-defined text protocol in which each message ends with a
//  CRLF.
$command = 'STATUS\r\n';
$success = $socket->SendString($command);
if ($success == false) {
    print $socket->lastErrorText() . "\n";
    exit;
}

//  Receive bytes until a specific raw byte value is found, then decode the preceding bytes using
//  StringCharset.  The delimiter itself is excluded from the returned string.  Here the delimiter is
//  the linefeed byte (decimal 10).
$line = $socket->receiveStringUntilByte(10);
if ($socket->get_LastMethodSuccess() == false) {
    print $socket->lastErrorText() . "\n";
    exit;
}

print $line . "\n";
