Sockets.socketPair(3kaya)				       Kaya module reference					 Sockets.socketPair(3kaya)

NAME

       Sockets::socketPair - Create a joined pair of sockets

SYNOPSIS

       Pair<Socket, Socket> socketPair( )

DESCRIPTION

       This  function  creates	a pair of sockets that can be used for bi-directional communication. The most common use of this is for setting up
       communications between a process and its Posix.fork(3kaya) ()ed child - each process closes one of the sockets after the fork.

    sockets = socketPair();
    pid = fork();
    if (pid == 0) {
    // child process
      close(sockets.fst);
      // do something
    } else {
      close(sockets.snd);
      // do something else
    }

NAME

       Sockets::recv - Receive text data from a socket

SYNOPSIS

       String recv( Socket s, Int maxlen=-1, Int timeout=1000000 )

ARGUMENTS

       s The socket

       maxlen  The maximum number of bytes to receive. This must be a positive integer (the default is 1024), or -1 for no limit. Note that if the
       data to be received contains multi-byte characters, care must be taken to avoid ending receiving part-way through a multi-byte character.

       timeout The time to wait for data in microseconds before giving up (the default is 1000000, or 1 second). -1 can be used to wait until data
       arrives.

DESCRIPTION

       Receive text data from a socket.
