All functions provided by the library are in the namespace "socket".
|
|
|
|
|
Functions such as send/receive/timeout/close etc do not exist in the
|
|
|
|
|
namespace. They are now only available as methods of the appropriate
|
|
|
|
|
objects.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Object has been changed to become more uniform. First create an object for
|
|
|
|
|
a given domain/family and protocol. Then connect or bind if needed. Then
|
|
|
|
|
use IO functions.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
All functions return a non-nil value as first return value if successful.
|
|
|
|
|
All functions return nil followed by error message in case of error.
|
|
|
|
|
WARNING: The send function was affected.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Better error messages and parameter checking.

UDP connected udp sockets can break association with peer by calling
|
|
|
|
|
setpeername with address "*".
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
socket.sleep and socket.time are now part of the library and are
|
|
|
|
|
supported.
