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.

import { Socket } from '@chilkat/react-native'

async function chilkatExample() {
  const socket = new Socket();

  // Connect to the server using TLS.
  const bTls = true;
  const maxWaitMs = 5000;
  try {
    await socket.connectAsync('example.com', 5000, bTls, maxWaitMs);
  } catch {
    console.log(socket.lastErrorText);
    return;
  }

  // Read exactly four bytes as a signed 32-bit integer and store the result in the ReceivedInt
  // property.  The argument selects byte order (true = big-endian, network byte order).
  const bBigEndian = true;
  try {
    await socket.receiveInt32Async(bBigEndian);
  } catch {
    console.log(socket.lastErrorText);
    return;
  }

  console.log(`Received 32-bit integer: ${socket.receivedInt}`);
