CSocketFile::CSocketFile
Constructs a CSocketFile object.
explicit CSocketFile(
CSocket* pSocket,
BOOL bArchiveCompatible = TRUE
);
Parameters
pSocket
The socket to attach to the CSocketFile object.bArchiveCompatible
Specifies whether the file object is for use with a CArchive object. Pass FALSE only if you want to use the CSocketFile object in a stand-alone manner as you would a stand-alone CFile object, with certain limitations. This flag changes how the CArchive object attached to the CSocketFile object manages its buffer for reading.
Remarks
The object's destructor disassociates itself from the socket object when the object goes out of scope or is deleted.
참고
A CSocketFile can also be used as a (limited) file without a CArchive object. By default, the CSocketFile constructor's bArchiveCompatible parameter is TRUE. This specifies that the file object is for use with an archive. To use the file object without an archive, pass FALSE in the bArchiveCompatible parameter.
In its "archive compatible" mode, a CSocketFile object provides better performance and reduces the danger of a "deadlock." A deadlock occurs when both the sending and receiving sockets are waiting on each other, or for a common resource. This situation might occur if the CArchive object worked with the CSocketFile the way it does with a CFile object. With CFile, the archive can assume that if it receives fewer bytes than it requested, the end of file has been reached.
With CSocketFile, however, data is message based; the buffer can contain multiple messages, so receiving fewer than the number of bytes requested does not imply end of file. The application does not block in this case as it might with CFile, and it can continue reading messages from the buffer until the buffer is empty. The CArchive::IsBufferEmpty function is useful for monitoring the state of the archive's buffer in such a case.
