stream_send_uint
Writes a 32-bit unsigned integer to the stream buffer.
Description
This function writes a 32-bit unsigned integer to the stream buffer. It attempts to store the integer in the stream buffer. If there is enough room available in the stream buffer then it stores the data in the buffer and returns immediately. The data is not written to the actual communication channel until the stream is flushed using stream_flush or there is no more room available in the stream buffer. If an error occurs, then it returns a negative error code. If the connection is closed it is considered an error condition.
If the stream has been configured to swap bytes using stream_set_swap_bytes or stream_set_byte_order then this function will swap the order of the bytes within the integer when they are sent.
If stream_listen or stream_connect was called with the non-blocking flag set to false (0), then this function may block attempting to flush the stream buffer. All the data will be consumed and the total number of integers sent is returned (1). Some of the data may remain in the stream buffer and not be sent until the next time stream_flush is called or there is no more room available in the stream buffer. If an error occurs then the error code is returned and the stream should be closed.
If stream_listen or stream_connect was called with the non-blocking flag set to true (1), then this function does not block. It returns the number of integers sent successfully, which will be 1. If the integer could not be sent without blocking, then -QERR_WOULD_BLOCK is returned. If an error occurs then the error code is returned and the stream should be closed.
This function does not support two threads sending or flushing data at the same time. However, data may be sent or the stream flushed by another thread at the same time as data is being received.
The BSD socket API has no equivalent to this function.
Prototype
t_int stream_send_uint(t_stream stream, t_uint value);
Parameters
t_stream stream
A client stream established using stream_connect or stream_accept.
t_uint value
The value to be sent.
Return value
The number of integers sent (1). If an error occurs then a negative error code is returned.
Error codes
This function does not return any error code.
