Enum nix::sys::socket::SockType

#[repr(i32)]
pub enum SockType {
    Stream,
    Datagram,
    SeqPacket,
    Raw,
    Rdm,
}

These constants are used to specify the communication semantics when creating a socket with socket()

Variants

Stream

Provides sequenced, reliable, two-way, connection- based byte streams. An out-of-band data transmission mechanism may be supported.

Datagram

Supports datagrams (connectionless, unreliable messages of a fixed maximum length).

SeqPacket

Provides a sequenced, reliable, two-way connection- based data transmission path for datagrams of fixed maximum length; a consumer is required to read an entire packet with each input system call.

Raw

Provides raw network protocol access.

Rdm

Provides a reliable datagram layer that does not guarantee ordering.

Trait Implementations
