Move a Connection into Another Socket

See more Socket/SSL/TLS Examples

Demonstrates Socket.TakeConnection, which moves the active connection from one Socket into another. The receiving object first releases any connection it previously held.

require 'chilkat'

success = false

listenSock = Chilkat::CkSocket.new()

success = listenSock.BindAndListen(5000,25)
if (success == false)
    print listenSock.lastErrorText() + "\n";
    exit
end

connectedSock = Chilkat::CkSocket.new()
success = listenSock.AcceptNext(20000,connectedSock)
if (success == false)
    print listenSock.lastErrorText() + "\n";
    exit
end

#  Move the active connection out of connectedSock and into another Socket object.  Unlike
#  TakeSocket, this does not add a member to a socket set.  After success, connectedSock holds no
#  connection.
handlerSock = Chilkat::CkSocket.new()
success = handlerSock.TakeConnection(connectedSock)
if (success == false)
    print handlerSock.lastErrorText() + "\n";
    exit
end

print "Connection moved to the handler socket." + "\n";
