ClientRecordLength Property

If set to a positive value, this setting defines the length of data records to be received.

Syntax

 sshtunnel.getClientRecordLength(index, [callback])
 sshtunnel.setClientRecordLength(index,  clientRecordLength, [callback])

Default Value

Callback

The 'callback' parameter specifies a function which will be called when the operation completes (or an error is encountered). If the 'callback' parameter is not specified, then the method will block and will not return until the operation completes (or an error is encountered).

The callback for the getClientRecordLength([callback]) method is defined as:

function(err, data){ }

'err' is the error that occurred. If there was no error, then 'err' is 'null'.

'data' is the value returned by the method.

The callback for the setClientRecordLength([callback]) method is defined as:

function(err){ }

'err' is the error that occurred. If there was no error, then 'err' is 'null'.

'err' has 2 properties which hold detailed information:

err.code
err.message

Remarks

If set to a positive value, this setting defines the length of data records to be received. The class will accumulate data until RecordLength is reached and only then fire the DataIn event with data of length RecordLength. This allows data to be received as records of known length. This value can be changed at any time, including within the DataIn event.

A value of 0 (default) means this setting is not used.

The index parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the ClientCount property.

This property is not available at design time.
