Create a new IP connection object

Append a connection specific packet handler using the connection default SendReceiveOptions

Append a connection specific packet handler

Append a connection specific unmanaged packet handler

Add a connection specific shutdown delegate

Closes the connection and trigger any associated shutdown delegates.

Every connection will probably have to perform connection specific shutdown tasks. This is called before the global connection close tasks.

Uses the current connection and returns a bool dependant on the remote end responding to a SendReceiveObject call within the default ConnectionAliveTestTimeoutMS

Uses the current connection and returns a bool dependant on the remote end responding to a SendReceiveObject call within the provided aliveRespondTimeoutMS.

Uses the current connection and returns a bool dependant on the remote end responding to a SendReceiveObject call within the provided aliveRespondTimeoutMS

Performs a connection handshake with the remote end of the connection. Exchanges network identifier and any listener whose IPAddress matches the connection localEndPoint IPAddress.

Dispose of the connection. Recommended usage is to call CloseConnection instead.

Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object.

Establish this connection

Any connection type specific establish tasks. Should call at least ConnectionHandshake() or TriggerConnectionEstablishDelegates();

Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection.

Serves as a hash function for a particular type.

Gets the Type of the current instance.

Attempts to use the data provided in packetBuilder to recreate something useful. If we don't have enough data yet that value is set in packetBuilder.

Returns true if an unmanaged packet handler exists on this connection

Returns true if the provided connection specific packet handler has been added for the provided packet type, on this connection.

Returns true if a connection specific unmanaged packet handler exists, on this connection.

Returns true if the provided connection specific unmanaged packet handler has been added, on this connection.

Creates a shallow copy of the current Object.

Returns the packet type sendReceiveOptions possibly used to unwrap incoming data. If no specific options are registered returns null

Removes all packet handlers for all packet types, on this connection.

Connection specific implementation for sending data on this connection type. Each StreamSendWrapper[] represents a single expected packet.

Send bytes on an unmanaged connection

A connection specific method which triggers any requisites for accepting incoming data

Returns ConnectionInfo.ToString

Trigger connection establish delegates.

Trigger connection specific packet delegates with the provided parameters. Returns true if connection specific handlers were executed.

Return true if the connection is established within the provided timeout, otherwise false

True if the async listen method is in a beginRead

True if async listen has started

A manual reset event which can be used to handle connection setup and establish.

A boolean used to signal a connection setup exception.

If connectionSetupException is true provides additional exception information.

A manual reset event which can be used to handle connection setup and establish.

The thread listening for incoming data should we be using synchronous methods.

The PacketBuilder for this connection

A counter which is incremented during every a send. The current value is included in the header of all sent packets.

Lockers for maintaining thread safe operation

A NetworkComms.Net math object for tracking send times. Used to prevent send deadlocks. Initialised at 1000 milliseconds per KB write speed, corresponding with 1KB / second.

The total bytes read so far within dataBuffer

If set NetworkComms.Net will only accept incoming connections from the provided IP ranges.

The default SendReceiveOptions used for this connection

Connection information related to this connection.

The NetworkComms.Net DOS protection class. By default DOSProtection is disabled.

Connection level SyncRoot which can be used to perform multiple thread safe operations on this connection external to NetworkComms.Net
