Class Poco::Net::SocketStream (original) (raw)

Library: Net
Package: Sockets
Header: Poco/Net/SocketStream.h

Description

An bidirectional stream for reading from and writing to a socket.

When using formatted input from a SocketStream, always ensure that a receive timeout is set for the socket. Otherwise your program might unexpectedly hang.

However, using formatted input from a SocketStream is not recommended, due to the read-ahead behavior of istream with formatted reads.
