NetSocket (Vert.x Stack - Docs 4.3.8 API)

All Superinterfaces:

ReadStream<Buffer>, StreamBase, WriteStream<Buffer>
```
public interface NetSocket
extends ReadStream<Buffer>, WriteStream<Buffer>
```
Represents a socket-like interface to a TCP connection on either the client or the server side.
Instances of this class are created on the client side by an NetClient when a connection to a server is made, or on the server side by a NetServer when a server accepts a connection.
It implements both ReadStream and WriteStream so it can be used with Pipe to pipe data with flow control.

    Parameters:
    
    handler - the exception handler
    
    Returns:
    
    a reference to this, so the API can be used fluently
  - handler
```
NetSocket handler(Handler<Buffer> handler)
```
    Description copied from interface: ReadStream
    
    Set a data handler. As data is read, the handler will be called with the data.
    
    Specified by:
    
    handler in interface ReadStream<Buffer>
    
    Returns:
    
    a reference to this, so the API can be used fluently
  - pause
```
NetSocket pause()
```
    Description copied from interface: ReadStream
    
    Pause the ReadStream, it sets the buffer in fetch mode and clears the actual demand.
    While it's paused, no data will be sent to the data handler.
    
    Specified by:
    
    pause in interface ReadStream<Buffer>
    
    Returns:
    
    a reference to this, so the API can be used fluently
  - resume
```
NetSocket resume()
```
    Description copied from interface: ReadStream
    
    Resume reading, and sets the buffer in flowing mode.
    If the ReadStream has been paused, reading will recommence on it.
    
    Specified by:
    
    resume in interface ReadStream<Buffer>
    
    Returns:
    
    a reference to this, so the API can be used fluently
  - fetch
```
NetSocket fetch(long amount)
```
    Description copied from interface: ReadStream
    
    Fetch the specified amount of elements. If the ReadStream has been paused, reading will recommence with the specified amount of items, otherwise the specified amount will be added to the current stream demand.
    
    Specified by:
    
    fetch in interface ReadStream<Buffer>
    
    Returns:
    
    a reference to this, so the API can be used fluently
  - endHandler
```
NetSocket endHandler(Handler<Void> endHandler)
```
    Set an end handler. Once the stream has ended, and there is no more data to be read, this handler will be called.
    This handler might be called after the close handler when the socket is paused and there are still buffers to deliver.
    
    Specified by:
    
    endHandler in interface ReadStream<Buffer>
    
    Returns:
    
    a reference to this, so the API can be used fluently
  - setWriteQueueMaxSize
```
NetSocket setWriteQueueMaxSize(int maxSize)
```
    Description copied from interface: WriteStream
    
    Set the maximum size of the write queue to maxSize. You will still be able to write to the stream even if there is more than maxSize items in the write queue. This is used as an indicator by classes such as Pipe to provide flow control.
    The value is defined by the implementation of the stream, e.g in bytes for a NetSocket, etc...
    
    Specified by:
    
    setWriteQueueMaxSize in interface WriteStream<Buffer>
    
    Parameters:
    
    maxSize - the max size of the write stream
    
    Returns:
    
    a reference to this, so the API can be used fluently
  - drainHandler
```
NetSocket drainHandler(Handler<Void> handler)
```
    Description copied from interface: WriteStream
    
    Set a drain handler on the stream. If the write queue is full, then the handler will be called when the write queue is ready to accept buffers again. See Pipe for an example of this being used.
    The stream implementation defines when the drain handler, for example it could be when the queue size has been reduced to maxSize / 2.
    
    Specified by:
    
    drainHandler in interface WriteStream<Buffer>
    
    Parameters:
    
    handler - the handler
    
    Returns:
    
    a reference to this, so the API can be used fluently
  - writeHandlerID
```
String writeHandlerID()
```
    When a NetSocket is created it automatically registers an event handler with the event bus, the ID of that handler is given by writeHandlerID.
    Given this ID, a different event loop can send a buffer to that event handler using the event bus and that buffer will be received by this instance in its own event loop and written to the underlying connection. This allows you to write data to other connections which are owned by different event loops.
    
    Returns:
    
    the write handler ID
