Module net

Networking primitives for TCP/UDP communication.

Structs

AxTcpSocketHandle

A handle to a TCP socket.

AxUdpSocketHandle

A handle to a UDP socket.

Functions

ax_dns_query

Resolves the host name to a list of IP addresses.

ax_poll_interfaces

Poll the network stack.

ax_tcp_accept

Accepts a new connection on the TCP socket.

ax_tcp_bind

Binds the TCP socket to the given address and port.

ax_tcp_connect

Connects the TCP socket to the given address and port.

ax_tcp_listen

Starts listening on the bound address and port.

ax_tcp_peer_addr

Returns the remote address and port of the TCP socket.

ax_tcp_poll

Returns whether the TCP socket is readable or writable.

ax_tcp_recv

Receives data on the TCP socket, and stores it in the given buffer. On success, returns the number of bytes read.

ax_tcp_send

Transmits data in the given buffer on the TCP socket.

ax_tcp_set_nonblocking

Moves this TCP socket into or out of nonblocking mode.

ax_tcp_shutdown

Closes the connection on the TCP socket.

ax_tcp_socket

Creates a new TCP socket.

ax_tcp_socket_addr

Returns the local address and port of the TCP socket.

ax_udp_bind

Binds the UDP socket to the given address and port.

ax_udp_connect

Connects this UDP socket to a remote address, allowing the send and recv to be used to send data and also applies filters to only receive data from the specified address.

ax_udp_peek_from

Receives a single datagram message on the UDP socket, without removing it from the queue.

ax_udp_peer_addr

Returns the remote address and port of the UDP socket.

ax_udp_poll

Returns whether the UDP socket is readable or writable.

ax_udp_recv

Receives a single datagram message on the UDP socket from the remote address to which it is connected. On success, returns the number of bytes read.

ax_udp_recv_from

Receives a single datagram message on the UDP socket.

ax_udp_send

Sends data on the UDP socket to the remote address to which it is connected.

ax_udp_send_to

Sends data on the UDP socket to the given address. On success, returns the number of bytes written.

ax_udp_set_nonblocking

Moves this UDP socket into or out of nonblocking mode.

ax_udp_socket

Creates a new UDP socket.

ax_udp_socket_addr

Returns the local address and port of the UDP socket.
