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.

func chilkatTest() {
    var success: Bool = false

    let socket = CkoSocket()!

    //  Connect to the server using TLS.
    var bTls: Bool = true
    var maxWaitMs: Int = 5000
    success = socket.connect(hostname: "example.com", port: 5000, ssl: bTls, maxWaitMs: maxWaitMs)
    if success == false {
        print("\(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).
    var bBigEndian: Bool = true
    success = socket.receiveInt32(bigEndian: bBigEndian)
    if success == false {
        print("\(socket.lastErrorText!)")
        return
    }

    print("Received 32-bit integer: \(socket.receivedInt.intValue)")
