Definition
property State: TSocketState;
Descripton
State defines the current state of the socket, mainly used for log or display purposes.. The following values are available:
- wsInvalidState
- wsOpened
- wsBound
- wsConnecting
- wsSocksConnected
- wsConnected
- wsAccepting
- wsListening
- wsClosed
Server sockets usually follow path: wsClosed -> wsBound -> wsListening -> wsClosed.
Client sockets usually follow path: wsClosed -> wsOpened -> wsConnecting -> wsConnected -> wsClosed.
Best practices
The State property is intended for display or logging purpose only. To manage your application flow/state, use the events instead. The most usefull events are OnSessionConnected, OnSessionAvailable, OnSessionClosed and OnDataAvailable.
