Description

This is the subclass of GSocketConnection that is created for TCP/IP sockets.

Functions

g_tcp_connection_set_graceful_disconnect ()

void
g_tcp_connection_set_graceful_disconnect
                               (GTcpConnection *connection,
                                gboolean graceful_disconnect);

This enables graceful disconnects on close. A graceful disconnect means that we signal the receiving end that the connection is terminated and wait for it to close the connection before closing the connection.

A graceful disconnect means that we can be sure that we successfully sent all the outstanding data to the other end, or get an error reported. However, it also means we have to wait for all the data to reach the other side and for it to acknowledge this by closing the socket, which may take a while. For this reason it is disabled by default.

Parameters

connection

a GTcpConnection

 

graceful_disconnect

Whether to do graceful disconnects or not
