  • osl_Socket_OptionReuseAddr
    (sal_Bool) Allows the socket to be bound to an address that is already in use. 1 = multiple bound allowed, 0 = no multiple bounds allowed
  • osl_Socket_OptionKeepAlive
    (sal_Bool) Keepalive packets are sent by the underlying socket. 1 = enabled, 0 = disabled
  • osl_Socket_OptionDontRoute
    (sal_Bool) Do not route: send directly to interface. 1 = do not route , 0 = routing possible
  • osl_Socket_OptionBroadcast

  • osl_Socket_OptionUseLoopback
  • osl_Socket_OptionLinger

Summary
Sets the addr field in the struct sockaddr with pByteSeq. pByteSeq must be in network byte order.

osl_setInetPortOfSocketAddr
extern "C"
sal_Bool osl_setInetPortOfSocketAddr(
oslSocketAddr Addr,
sal_Int32 Port );

virtual abstract const volatile template static inline C-linkage
NO NO NO NO NO NO NO YES

Summary
Sets the Port of Addr.
Parameters
Port
is expected in host byte-order.
Return
sal_False if Addr is not an inet-addr.

osl_setSocketOption
extern "C"
sal_Bool osl_setSocketOption(
oslSocket Socket,
oslSocketOptionLevel Level,
oslSocketOption Option,
void * pBuffer,
sal_uInt32 BufferLen );

virtual abstract const volatile template static inline C-linkage
NO NO NO NO NO NO NO YES

Summary
Sets the sockets attributes.
Parameters
Socket
is the socket to modify.

    
Level
selects the level for which an option should be changed.
    Valid values are:
    
  • osl_sol_socket: Socket Level
  • osl_sol_tcp: Level of Transmission Control Protocol
Option
denotes the option to modify. See osl_setSocketOption() for more
    details.
    
    
pBuffer
Pointer to a Buffer which contains the attribute-value.

    
BufferSize
contains the length of the Buffer.

    
Return
True if the option could be changed.

osl_shutdownSocket
extern "C"
sal_Bool osl_shutdownSocket(
oslSocket Socket,
oslSocketDirection Direction );

virtual abstract const volatile template static inline C-linkage
NO NO NO NO NO NO NO YES

Summary
Shuts down communication on a connected socket.
Parameters
Direction
denotes which end of the socket
should be closed:
  • osl_Socket_DirRead closes read operations.
  • osl_Socket_DirReadWrite closes write operations.
  • osl_Socket_DirWrite closes read and write operations.
Return
sal_True if the socket could be closed down.

osl_writeSocket
extern "C"
sal_Int32 osl_writeSocket(
oslSocket Socket,
const void * pBuffer,
sal_Int32 nSize );

virtual abstract const volatile template static inline C-linkage
NO NO NO NO NO NO NO YES

Summary
Writes n bytes from pBuffer to the stream. The method avoids incomplete writes due to packet boundaries.
Parameters
pBuffer
contains the data to be written.
n
the number of bytes to write.
Return
the number of written bytes. The number will only be smaller than n if an exceptional condition (e.g. connection closed) occurs.
