When to use "tcpSocket:disconnect();" ?


Guest samuelboerhoop

Question

Guest samuelboerhoop

When do I use the following code in lua:?

 

tcpSocket:disconnect();

 

i some sample code it has been added to the sample in others not.

 

example:

 

-- Volume 40dB --
tcpSocket:write("MV40".."\r")
fibaro:sleep(500);
result, err = tcpSocket:read();
tcpSocket:disconnect();
if (err == 0) then
  fibaro:log("transfer OK");
  fibaro:debug("transfer OK");
else
  fibaro:log("transfer failed");
  fibaro:debug("transfer failed");
end
 
------------------------------------
 
 
-- HERE its not been used --
 
tcpSocket:write(string.char(0x53, 0x49, 0x49, 0x52, 0x41, 0x44, 0x49, 0x4f, 0x0d));
fibaro:sleep(1000);
result, err = tcpSocket:read();
if (err == 0) then
  fibaro:log("Transfer OK: Internet Radio");
else
  fibaro:log("Transfer failed: extra check");
  -- check source: needs 2 times... otherwise still failed...
  tcpSocket:write(string.char(0x53, 0x49, 0x3f, 0x0d));
  fibaro:sleep(500);
  result, err = tcpSocket:read();
  tcpSocket:write(string.char(0x53, 0x49, 0x3f, 0x0d));
  fibaro:sleep(500);
  result, err = tcpSocket:read();
  if (err == 0) then
    if ( trim(string.sub(result, 1, string.len(result)-9)) == 'SIIRADIO' ) then
      fibaro:log("Transfer OK: Internet Radio");
    else
      fibaro:log("Transfer failed");
    end
  else
    fibaro:log("Transfer failed");
  end
end

Where can I find a reference manual/page about this TCPsocket? I've searched the web, but all I can find is examples of one type of application (to see if a device is present on the network or not). I would like to be able to see what all of its variables do. I noticed that the readTimeout does not work as expected; the socket takes ages (>20 seconds) if no device is available, i.e. write returns an error. I would like to shorten this time-out, but changing readTimeout doesn't do the trick.

Would be nice if the Fibaro adinistrator not only moves the subject, but also anwers the question about where to find documentaiton of TCPsocket

It is of course used to close the connection and dispose the socket. It is more of a good practice question. You should close things like that.

  • Ok If you look at the last example below where should i place the sentence: tcpSocket:disconnect(); ?

     

    After every "result, err = tcpSocket:read();" OR at the end of the last sentence of the code "result, err = tcpSocket:read();" ?

    Because in the example the "result, err = tcpSocket:read();" appears 3x times ?

     

    ----- Example ----

    tcpSocket:write(string.char(0x53, 0x49, 0x49, 0x52, 0x41, 0x44, 0x49, 0x4f, 0x0d));
    fibaro:sleep(1000);
    result, err = tcpSocket:read();
    if (err == 0) then
      fibaro:log("Transfer OK: Internet Radio");
    else
      fibaro:log("Transfer failed: extra check");
      -- check source: needs 2 times... otherwise still failed...
      tcpSocket:write(string.char(0x53, 0x49, 0x3f, 0x0d));
      fibaro:sleep(500);
      result, err = tcpSocket:read();
      tcpSocket:write(string.char(0x53, 0x49, 0x3f, 0x0d));
      fibaro:sleep(500);
      result, err = tcpSocket:read();
      if (err == 0) then
        if ( trim(string.sub(result, 1, string.len(result)-9)) == 'SIIRADIO' ) then
          fibaro:log("Transfer OK: Internet Radio");
        else
          fibaro:log("Transfer failed");
        end
      else
        fibaro:log("Transfer failed");
      end
    end
