Public Methods

Method	Description
BeginInit ( ) : void	Performs necessary operations before the client properties are initialized. BeginInit() should never be called by user-code directly. This method exists solely for use by the designer if the server is consumed through the designer surface of the IDE.
Connect ( ) : void	Connects the client to the server synchronously.
ConnectAsync ( ) : WaitHandle	Connects the client to the server asynchronously. Derived classes are expected to override this method with protocol specific connection operations. Call the base class method to obtain an operational wait handle if protocol connection operation doesn't provide one already.
Create ( string connectionString ) : IClient	Create a communications client Note that typical connection string should be prefixed with a "protocol=tcp", "protocol=udp", "protocol=serial" or "protocol=file"
Disconnect ( ) : void	When overridden in a derived class, disconnects client from the server synchronously.
EndInit ( ) : void	Performs necessary operations after the client properties are initialized. EndInit() should never be called by user-code directly. This method exists solely for use by the designer if the server is consumed through the designer surface of the IDE.
Initialize ( ) : void	Initializes the client. Initialize() is to be called by user-code directly only if the client is not consumed through the designer surface of the IDE.
LoadSettings ( ) : void	Loads saved client settings from the config file if the PersistSettings property is set to true.
Read ( byte buffer, int startIndex, int length ) : int	When overridden in a derived class, reads a number of bytes from the current received data buffer and writes those bytes into a byte array at the specified offset. This function should only be called from within the ReceiveData event handler. Calling this method outside this event will have unexpected results.
SaveSettings ( ) : void	Saves client settings to the config file if the PersistSettings property is set to true.
Send ( byte data ) : void	Sends data to the server synchronously.
Send ( byte data, int offset, int length ) : void	Sends data to the server synchronously.
Send ( object serializableObject ) : void	Sends data to the server synchronously.
Send ( string data ) : void	Sends data to the server synchronously.

Method Details

BeginInit() public method

Performs necessary operations before the client properties are initialized.

BeginInit() should never be called by user-code directly. This method exists solely for use by the designer if the server is consumed through the designer surface of the IDE.

public BeginInit ( ) : void
return	void

ClientBase() protected method

Initializes a new instance of the client.

protected ClientBase ( ) : System
return	System

ClientBase() protected method

Initializes a new instance of the client.

return	System

Connect() public method

Connects the client to the server synchronously.

public Connect ( ) : void
return	void

ConnectAsync() public method

Connects the client to the server asynchronously.

Derived classes are expected to override this method with protocol specific connection operations. Call the base class method to obtain an operational wait handle if protocol connection operation doesn't provide one already.

Server property in is invalid. Attempt is made to connect the client when it is not disconnected.

public ConnectAsync ( ) : WaitHandle
return	System.Threading.WaitHandle

Create() public static method

Create a communications client

Note that typical connection string should be prefixed with a "protocol=tcp", "protocol=udp", "protocol=serial" or "protocol=file"

connectionString	string	Connection string for the client.
return	IClient

Disconnect() public method

When overridden in a derived class, disconnects client from the server synchronously.

public Disconnect ( ) : void
return	void

Dispose() protected method

Releases the unmanaged resources used by the client and optionally releases the managed resources.

protected Dispose ( bool disposing ) : void
disposing	bool	true to release both managed and unmanaged resources; false to release only unmanaged resources.
return	void

EndInit() public method

Performs necessary operations after the client properties are initialized.

EndInit() should never be called by user-code directly. This method exists solely for use by the designer if the server is consumed through the designer surface of the IDE.
