FBB::SocketBase(3bobcat)				      Base class for sockets					  FBB::SocketBase(3bobcat)

NAME
FBB::SocketBase - Base class for socket-constructing classes SYNOPSIS
#include <bobcat/socketbase> Linking option: -lbobcat DESCRIPTION
This class is a base class for the FBB::ServerSocket and FBB::ClientSocket classes. Since it is designed as a base class, all its construc- tors are protected. NAMESPACE
FBB All constructors, members, operators and manipulators, mentioned in this man-page, are defined in the namespace FBB. INHERITS FROM
FBB::InetAddress PROTECTED CONSTRUCTORS
o SocketBase(size_t port): This constructor creates a SocketBase to be used with ServerSocket-objects, listening on port. This constructor throws an Errno exception if it did not properly complete. o SocketBase(std::string const &host, unit_16_t port): This constructor creates a FBB::SocketBase to be used with a ClientSocket-object, connecting to hostname, at port `port'. This constructor throws an Errno exception if it did not properly complete. o SocketBase(int socket, sockaddr_in const &address): This constructor constructs a FBB::SocketBase object initializing its socket and FBB::InetAddress part from available external objects. The (public) copy constructor is available. MEMBER FUNCTIONS
All members of FBB::InetAddress are available, as FBB::SocketBase inherits from this class. o bool debug() const: This accessor returns true if the socket's debug (SO_DEBUG) socket option is active. It throws an FBB::Errno exception if the status of the debug option could not be determined. o bool reuse() const: This accessor returns true if the socket's reuse (SO_REUSEADDR) socket option is active. It throws an FBB::Errno exception if the status of the reuse option could not be determined. o void setDebug(bool trueIsOn) const: This member may be used to modify the socket's debug (SO_DEBUG) socket option. It throws an FBB::Errno exception if the socket's debug option could not be modified. o void setReuse(bool trueIsOn) const: This member may be used to modify the socket's reuse (SO_REUSEADDR) socket option. It throws an FBB::Errno exception if the socket's reuse option could not be modified. o int socket() const: This accessor returns the FBB::SocketBase's socket value. o void verify() const: Obsoleted, will be removed in a future Bobcat release. EXAMPLE
The classes FBB::ClientSocket and FBB::ServerSocket were derived from SocketBase. E.g., #ifndef INCLUDED_BOBCAT_CLIENTSOCKET_ #define INCLUDED_BOBCAT_CLIENTSOCKET_ #include <string> #include <bobcat/socketbase> namespace FBB { class ClientSocket: public SocketBase { public: // host may be address or name ClientSocket(std::string const &host, uint16_t port); int connect(); // returns fd (socket) to talk to the server }; } // FBB #endif See the clientsocket(3bobcat) man-page for an example showing how to use FBB::ClientSocket.
