Close a Socket Connection

See more Socket/SSL/TLS Examples

Demonstrates Socket.Close, which gracefully terminates and closes the current TCP, TLS, or SSH channel connection. The argument bounds how long to wait for clean shutdown processing.

let socket = chilkat::Socket::new();

// 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.
let b_tls = true;
let max_wait_ms = 5000;
if socket.connect("example.com", 5000, b_tls, max_wait_ms).is_err() {
    println!("{}", socket.last_error_text());
    return;
}

// StringCharset controls the character encoding used when sending and receiving text.
socket.set_string_charset("utf-8");

// Gracefully close the current TCP, TLS, or SSH channel connection.  The argument is the maximum
// number of milliseconds to wait for clean shutdown processing (0 waits indefinitely).
if socket.close(1000).is_err() {
    println!("{}", socket.last_error_text());
    return;
}

println!("Connection closed.");
