IO::Socket::UNIX - Object interface for AF_UNIX domain sockets

#NAME

IO::Socket::UNIX - Object interface for AF_UNIX domain sockets

#SYNOPSIS

use IO::Socket::UNIX;

my $SOCK_PATH = "$ENV{HOME}/unix-domain-socket-test.sock";

# Server:
my $server = IO::Socket::UNIX->new(
    Type => SOCK_STREAM(),
    Local => $SOCK_PATH,
    Listen => 1,
);

my $count = 1;
while (my $conn = $server->accept()) {
    $conn->print("Hello " . ($count++) . "\n");
}

# Client:
my $client = IO::Socket::UNIX->new(
    Type => SOCK_STREAM(),
    Peer => $SOCK_PATH,
);

# Now read and write from $client

#DESCRIPTION

IO::Socket::UNIX provides an object interface to creating and using sockets in the AF_UNIX domain. It is built upon the IO::Socket interface and inherits all the methods defined by IO::Socket.

#CONSTRUCTOR

#new ( [ARGS] )

Creates an IO::Socket::UNIX object, which is a reference to a newly created symbol (see the Symbol package). new optionally takes arguments, these arguments are in key-value pairs.

In addition to the key-value pairs accepted by IO::Socket, IO::Socket::UNIX provides.

Type    	Type of socket (eg SOCK_STREAM or SOCK_DGRAM)
Local   	Path to local fifo
Peer    	Path to peer fifo
Listen  	Queue size for listen

If the constructor is only passed a single argument, it is assumed to be a Peer specification.

If the Listen argument is given, but false, the queue size will be set to 5.

If the constructor fails it will return undef and set the $IO::Socket::errstr package variable to contain an error message.

$sock = IO::Socket::UNIX->new(...)
    or die "Cannot create socket - $IO::Socket::errstr\n";

For legacy reasons the error message is also set into the global $@ variable, and you may still find older code which looks here instead.

$sock = IO::Socket::UNIX->new(...)
    or die "Cannot create socket - $@\n";

#METHODS

#hostpath(): Returns the pathname to the fifo at the local end
#peerpath(): Returns the pathanme to the fifo at the peer end
