Class Socket

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    AdditionalInformationHandler, ClassCrossReference, CleanUpHandler, CrossReference, Destroyable, GlobalInfoSupporter, EncodingSupporter, LoggingLevelHandler, LoggingSupporter, OptionHandler, QuickInfoSupporter, ShallowCopySupporter<Actor>, SizeOfHandler, Stoppable, StoppableWithFeedback, VariablesInspectionHandler, VariableChangeListener, Actor, ErrorHandler, InputConsumer, Serializable, Comparable

    public class Socket
    extends AbstractSink
    implements EncodingSupporter, ClassCrossReference
    Just outputs the data to the specified socket.
    Any incoming data that isn't a byte array gets converted to a string and its bytes (using the specified encoding) are then transmitted.

        actors.
        default: false
     
    -silent <boolean> (property: silent)
        If enabled, then no errors are output in the console; Note: the enclosing
