hb_inetTimeout()
HB_INETTIMEOUT()
Get or change the timeout value of a socket
Syntax
HB_INETTIMEOUT( <socket> [, <nTimeout> ] ) -> nPreviousTimeout
Arguments
<socket> a socket previously created / opened
<nTimeout> is the new socket timeout value
Returns
Returns the previous timeout value of the socket
Description
Sets or changes the timeout value of the socket.

Syntax
HB_INETTIMELIMIT( <socket> [, <nTimeLimit> ) -> NIL
Arguments
<socket> a socket previously created / opened
<nTimeLimit>
Returns
Returns the previous time limit value of the socket
Description

hb_inetSetSndBufSize()
HB_INETSETSNDBUFSIZE()

Syntax
HB_INETSETSNDBUFSIZE( <socket>, <nSize> ) -> nSize

nSize
Returns
Returns the passed nSize or -1 on error
Description
Sets the send buffer size of a socket

Syntax
HB_INETSETRCVBUFSIZE( <socket>, nSize ) -> nSize
Arguments
<socket> a socket previously created / opened
nSize
Returns
Returns the passed nSize or -1 on error
Description
Sets the receive buffer size of a socket

hb_inetServer()
HB_INETSERVER()
Create a socket bound to a port
Syntax
HB_INETSERVER( <port> [, <cBindAddr> [, <nListenLimit> ]] ) -> SOCKET
Arguments
<port>
<cBindAddr>
<nListenLimit> is an internal parameter and rarely needs to be passed, defaults to 10
Returns
An INET socket
Description
Creates a server that can accept connections from client on a certain port.
If the computer on which hb_InetServer is called has more than one logical interface (e.g. one network card, one loopback and one PPP address), cBindAddr can be specified to select only one of these interfaces to accept connections for this process. This is useful when a server is present on two networks, and the service is to be available only in one of them. Also, the same port on other addresses is left free to be used, so you can have different server programs running for different networks but managing the same service. For example, an FTP server available to the internal network could be radically different from an FTP server available for the internet.
nListenLimit is the number of incoming connections accepted by kernel before the kernel has the chance to report them to the application program. If the sockets receive nListenLimit connections before accepting them all, the nListenLimit + 1 connection will be notified to be “busy” by the kernel. The default value of 10 is enough for even a heavy duty server.
On error, sets error description in the newly returned socket.
