Receive Bytes into a BinData

See more Socket/SSL/TLS Examples

Demonstrates Socket.ReceiveBd, which receives one delivery of binary data and appends it to a BinData. It returns whatever is immediately available.

integer li_rc
integer li_Success
oleobject loo_Socket
integer li_BTls
integer li_MaxWaitMs
oleobject loo_Bd

li_Success = 0

loo_Socket = create oleobject
li_rc = loo_Socket.ConnectToNewObject("Chilkat.Socket")
if li_rc < 0 then
    destroy loo_Socket
    MessageBox("Error","Connecting to COM object failed")
    return
end if

//  Connect to the server using TLS.
li_BTls = 1
li_MaxWaitMs = 5000
li_Success = loo_Socket.Connect("example.com",5000,li_BTls,li_MaxWaitMs)
if li_Success = 0 then
    Write-Debug loo_Socket.LastErrorText
    destroy loo_Socket
    return
end if

//  Receive one delivery of binary data and append it to a BinData.  ReceiveBd returns whatever is
//  immediately available; it does not loop to drain everything that may follow.
loo_Bd = create oleobject
li_rc = loo_Bd.ConnectToNewObject("Chilkat.BinData")

li_Success = loo_Socket.ReceiveBd(loo_Bd)
if li_Success = 0 then
    Write-Debug loo_Socket.LastErrorText
    destroy loo_Socket
    destroy loo_Bd
    return
end if

Write-Debug "Received " + string(loo_Bd.NumBytes) + " bytes."
