WSServer Class

Properties Methods Events Config Settings Errors

The WSServer class is used to create a WebSocket server.

Syntax

WSServer

Remarks

The WSServer class functions as a server that facilitates incoming WebSocket connections and offers a convenient means of transmitting and receiving data over the established connections.

To start, the LocalPort property must be specified to a valid port. This port will be used to accept incoming connections. Then, call the StartListening method to start listening on the specified port. The WSServer class supports both plaintext and Secure Sockets Layer/Transport Layer Security (SSL/TLS) connections. The SSLStatus event provides information about the SSL handshake. Additional SSL-related settings are also supported through the Config method. The SSLCert properties are used to select a certificate for the server.

Note: A valid certificate must be selected before the server can function.

Upon a client's connection, the WebSocketOpenRequest event will be fired. To accept the connection, simply allow the event to complete its execution. Conversely, to reject the request, the StatusCode parameter can be set to an appropriate HTTP error code, such as 401.

By default, each instance of WSServer has the capacity to handle up to 1,000 simultaneous incoming connections. You can change the maximum number of simultaneous connections by adjusting the MaxConnections configuration setting. This setting allows you to increase the limit up to 100,000 or decrease it to a lower value based on your needs.

Each connection is identified by a unique ConnectionId, an identifier generated by the component to distinguish individual connections. The ConnectionId is also included as a parameter in WSServer's events to identify the associated connection.

After receiving a connection, incoming data can be accessed through the DataIn event. To transmit data to a client, the Send, SendText, or SendFile methods can be employed.

Note: Server components are designed to process events as they occur. To ensure that events are processed in a timely manner, DoEvents should be called in a loop after the server is started.

ConnectionBacklog Property (WSServer Class)

This property includes the maximum number of pending connections maintained by the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP)/IP subsystem.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
int GetConnectionBacklog();
int SetConnectionBacklog(int iConnectionBacklog);

Unicode (Windows)
INT GetConnectionBacklog();
INT SetConnectionBacklog(INT iConnectionBacklog);

int ipworks_wsserver_getconnectionbacklog(void* lpObj);
int ipworks_wsserver_setconnectionbacklog(void* lpObj, int iConnectionBacklog);

int GetConnectionBacklog();
int SetConnectionBacklog(int iConnectionBacklog);

Default Value

Remarks

This property contains the maximum number of pending connections maintained by the TCP/IP subsystem. This value reflects the SOMAXCONN option for the main listening socket. The default value for most systems is 5. You may set this property to a larger value if the server is expected to receive a large number of connections, and queuing them is desirable.

This property is not available at design time.

Data Type

Remarks

This property contains a collection of currently connected clients. All of the connections may be managed using this property. Each connection is described by the different fields of the WSConnection type.

This collection is a hashtable type of collection, in which the ConnectionId string is used as the key to the desired connection. You may acquire the key for a given connection through the Connected or WebSocketOpenRequest events.

This property is read-only.

Data Type

IPWorksWSConnection

DefaultTimeout Property (WSServer Class)

This property includes initial timeout value to be used by incoming connections.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
int GetDefaultTimeout();
int SetDefaultTimeout(int iDefaultTimeout);

Unicode (Windows)
INT GetDefaultTimeout();
INT SetDefaultTimeout(INT iDefaultTimeout);

int ipworks_wsserver_getdefaulttimeout(void* lpObj);
int ipworks_wsserver_setdefaulttimeout(void* lpObj, int iDefaultTimeout);

int GetDefaultTimeout();
int SetDefaultTimeout(int iDefaultTimeout);

Default Value

Remarks

This property is used by the class to set the operational timeout value of all inbound connections once they are established.

By default, the timeout is 0, meaning that all inbound connections will behave asynchronously.

Data Type

Integer

Listening Property (WSServer Class)

This property indicates whether the class is listening for incoming connections on LocalPort.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
int GetListening();

Unicode (Windows)
BOOL GetListening();

int ipworks_wsserver_getlistening(void* lpObj);

bool GetListening();

Default Value

FALSE

Remarks

This property indicates whether the class is listening for connections on the port specified by the LocalPort property. Use the StartListening and StopListening methods to control whether the class is listening.

This property is read-only and not available at design time.

Data Type

Boolean

LocalHost Property (WSServer Class)

The name of the local host or user-assigned IP interface through which connections are initiated or accepted.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
char* GetLocalHost();
int SetLocalHost(const char* lpszLocalHost);

Unicode (Windows)
LPWSTR GetLocalHost();
INT SetLocalHost(LPCWSTR lpszLocalHost);

char* ipworks_wsserver_getlocalhost(void* lpObj);
int ipworks_wsserver_setlocalhost(void* lpObj, const char* lpszLocalHost);

QString GetLocalHost();
int SetLocalHost(QString qsLocalHost);

Default Value

Remarks

This property contains the name of the local host as obtained by the gethostname() system call, or if the user has assigned an IP address, the value of that address.

In multihomed hosts (machines with more than one IP interface) setting LocalHost to the IP address of an interface will make the class initiate connections (or accept in the case of server classs) only through that interface. It is recommended to provide an IP address rather than a hostname when setting this property to ensure the desired interface is used.

If the class is connected, the LocalHost property shows the IP address of the interface through which the connection is made in internet dotted format (aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd). In most cases, this is the address of the local host, except for multihomed hosts (machines with more than one IP interface).

Note: LocalHost is not persistent. You must always set it in code, and never in the property window.

Data Type

String

LocalPort Property (WSServer Class)

This property includes the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) port in the local host where the class listens.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
int GetLocalPort();
int SetLocalPort(int iLocalPort);

Unicode (Windows)
INT GetLocalPort();
INT SetLocalPort(INT iLocalPort);

int ipworks_wsserver_getlocalport(void* lpObj);
int ipworks_wsserver_setlocalport(void* lpObj, int iLocalPort);

int GetLocalPort();
int SetLocalPort(int iLocalPort);

Default Value

Remarks

This property must be set before the class can start listening. If its value is 0, then the TCP/IP subsystem picks a port number at random. The port number can be found by checking the value of this property after the class is listening (i.e., after successfully assigning True to the Listening property).

The service port is not shared among servers so two classs cannot be listening on the same port at the same time.

Data Type

Integer

SSLAuthenticateClients Property (WSServer Class)

If set to True, the server asks the client(s) for a certificate.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
int GetSSLAuthenticateClients();
int SetSSLAuthenticateClients(int bSSLAuthenticateClients);

Unicode (Windows)
BOOL GetSSLAuthenticateClients();
INT SetSSLAuthenticateClients(BOOL bSSLAuthenticateClients);

int ipworks_wsserver_getsslauthenticateclients(void* lpObj);
int ipworks_wsserver_setsslauthenticateclients(void* lpObj, int bSSLAuthenticateClients);

bool GetSSLAuthenticateClients();
int SetSSLAuthenticateClients(bool bSSLAuthenticateClients);

Default Value

FALSE

Remarks

This property is used in conjunction with the SSLClientAuthentication event. Please refer to the documentation of the SSLClientAuthentication event for details.

To set a certificate, you may set the Encoded field to the encoded certificate. To select a certificate, use the store and subject fields.

Data Type

IPWorksCertificate

SSLProvider Property (WSServer Class)

The Secure Sockets Layer/Transport Layer Security (SSL/TLS) implementation to use.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
int GetSSLProvider();
int SetSSLProvider(int iSSLProvider);

Unicode (Windows)
INT GetSSLProvider();
INT SetSSLProvider(INT iSSLProvider);

Possible Values

SSLP_AUTOMATIC(0), 
SSLP_PLATFORM(1), 
SSLP_INTERNAL(2)

int ipworks_wsserver_getsslprovider(void* lpObj);
int ipworks_wsserver_setsslprovider(void* lpObj, int iSSLProvider);

int GetSSLProvider();
int SetSSLProvider(int iSSLProvider);

Default Value

Remarks

This property specifies the SSL/TLS implementation to use. In most cases the default value of 0 (Automatic) is recommended and should not be changed. When set to 0 (Automatic), the class will select whether to use the platform implementation or the internal implementation depending on the operating system as well as the TLS version being used.

Possible values are as follows:


0 (sslpAutomatic - default)	Automatically selects the appropriate implementation.
1 (sslpPlatform)	Uses the platform/system implementation.
2 (sslpInternal)	Uses the internal implementation.

Additional Notes

In most cases using the default value (Automatic) is recommended. The class will select a provider depending on the current platform.

When Automatic is selected, on Windows, the class will use the platform implementation. On Linux/macOS, the class will use the internal implementation. When TLS 1.3 is enabled via SSLEnabledProtocols, the internal implementation is used on all platforms.

Data Type

Integer

UseSSL Property (WSServer Class)

This property determines if the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) is negotiated with incoming connections.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
int GetUseSSL();
int SetUseSSL(int bUseSSL);

Unicode (Windows)
BOOL GetUseSSL();
INT SetUseSSL(BOOL bUseSSL);

int ipworks_wsserver_getusessl(void* lpObj);
int ipworks_wsserver_setusessl(void* lpObj, int bUseSSL);

bool GetUseSSL();
int SetUseSSL(bool bUseSSL);

Default Value

FALSE

Remarks

When set to True, the class will attempt to negotiate SSL with all connecting clients. To enable SSL support, you must supply a valid certificate through the StoreType, Store, StorePassword, and Subject properties

The default value is False.

This property is not available at design time.

Data Type

Boolean

ChangeLineMode Method (WSServer Class)

This method controls whether the class will fire DataIn when an EOL is received for the specified connection.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
int ChangeLineMode(int iConnectionId, int bLineMode);

Unicode (Windows)
INT ChangeLineMode(INT iConnectionId, BOOL bLineMode);

int ipworks_wsserver_changelinemode(void* lpObj, int iConnectionId, int bLineMode);

int ChangeLineMode(int iConnectionId, bool bLineMode);

Remarks

When LineMode is set to False (default), the component will fire the DataIn event once for each message received from the client. When LineMode is set to True, the component will instead fire DataIn for each line of data received. The maximum length of a line can be controlled by the MaxLineLength[ConnectionId]; configuration setting.

Note: This method is offered as a convenience feature, and it has no effect on the behavior of the WebSocket protocol.

Error Handling (C++)

This method returns a result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message. (Note: This method's result code can also be obtained by calling the GetLastErrorCode() method after it returns.)

Config Method (WSServer Class)

Sets or retrieves a configuration setting.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
char* Config(const char* lpszConfigurationString);

Unicode (Windows)
LPWSTR Config(LPCWSTR lpszConfigurationString);

char* ipworks_wsserver_config(void* lpObj, const char* lpszConfigurationString);

QString Config(const QString& qsConfigurationString);

Remarks

Config is a generic method available in every class. It is used to set and retrieve configuration settings for the class.

These settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the class, access to these internal properties is provided through the Config method.

To set a configuration setting named PROPERTY, you must call Config("PROPERTY=VALUE"), where VALUE is the value of the setting expressed as a string. For boolean values, use the strings "True", "False", "0", "1", "Yes", or "No" (case does not matter).

To read (query) the value of a configuration setting, you must call Config("PROPERTY"). The value will be returned as a string.

Error Handling (C++)

This method returns a String value; after it returns, call the GetLastErrorCode() method to obtain its result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message.

Disconnect Method (WSServer Class)

This method disconnects the specified client.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
int Disconnect(int iConnectionId);

Unicode (Windows)
INT Disconnect(INT iConnectionId);

int ipworks_wsserver_disconnect(void* lpObj, int iConnectionId);

int Disconnect(int iConnectionId);

Remarks

Calling this method will disconnect the client specified by the ConnectionId parameter.

Error Handling (C++)

DoEvents Method (WSServer Class)

This method processes events from the internal message queue.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
int DoEvents();

Unicode (Windows)
INT DoEvents();

int ipworks_wsserver_doevents(void* lpObj);

int DoEvents();

Remarks

When DoEvents is called, the class processes any available events. If no events are available, it waits for a preset period of time, and then returns.

Error Handling (C++)

Interrupt Method (WSServer Class)

This method interrupts a synchronous send to the remote host.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
int Interrupt(int iConnectionId);

Unicode (Windows)
INT Interrupt(INT iConnectionId);

int ipworks_wsserver_interrupt(void* lpObj, int iConnectionId);

int Interrupt(int iConnectionId);

Remarks

This property is called using the ConnectionId if you wish to interrupt a connection and stop a file from uploading without disconnecting the client connected to the class. If you use SendFile to upload a file, the class will run synchronously on that ConnectionId until it is completed.

Error Handling (C++)

Ping Method (WSServer Class)

This method sends a ping request to the remote host.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
int Ping(int iConnectionId);

Unicode (Windows)
INT Ping(INT iConnectionId);

int ipworks_wsserver_ping(void* lpObj, int iConnectionId);

int Ping(int iConnectionId);

Remarks

This method sends a ping request to the remote host and waits for a corresponding pong response.

The Timeout property specifies how long to wait for the pong response.

Error Handling (C++)

Send Method (WSServer Class)

This method sends binary data to the client.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
int Send(int iConnectionId, const char* lpData, int lenData);

Unicode (Windows)
INT Send(INT iConnectionId, LPCSTR lpData, INT lenData);

int ipworks_wsserver_send(void* lpObj, int iConnectionId, const char* lpData, int lenData);

int Send(int iConnectionId, QByteArray qbaData);

Remarks

This method sends the binary data specified by Data to the client specified by ConnectionId.

Error Handling (C++)

SendBytes Method (WSServer Class)

This method sends binary data to the specified client.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
int SendBytes(int iConnectionId, const char* lpData, int lenData);

Unicode (Windows)
INT SendBytes(INT iConnectionId, LPCSTR lpData, INT lenData);

int ipworks_wsserver_sendbytes(void* lpObj, int iConnectionId, const char* lpData, int lenData);

int SendBytes(int iConnectionId, QByteArray qbaData);

Remarks

This method sends binary data to the client identified by ConnectionId. To send text, use the SendText method instead.

When Timeout is set to 0, the class will behave asynchronously. If you are sending data to the remote host faster than it can process it, or faster than the network's bandwidth allows, the outgoing queue might fill up. When this happens, the operation fails with error 10035: "[10035] Operation would block" (WSAEWOULDBLOCK). You can check this error, and then try to send the data again. . The BytesSent property shows how many bytes were sent (if any). If 0 bytes were sent, then you can wait for the ReadyToSend event before attempting to send data again.

Note: The ReadyToSend event is not fired when part of the data is sent successfully.

This method sends binary data to the client identified by ConnectionId. To send text, use the SendText method instead.

DataIn Event (WSServer Class)

This event is fired when data are received.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
virtual int FireDataIn(WSServerDataInEventParams *e);

typedef struct {
  int ConnectionId;
  int DataFormat;
  const char *Text;
  int lenText;
  int EOM;
  int EOL;

typedef struct {
  INT ConnectionId;
  INT DataFormat;
  LPCSTR Text;
  INT lenText;
  BOOL EOM;
  BOOL EOL;
  INT reserved;
} WSServerDataInEventParams;

#define EID_WSSERVER_DATAIN 3

virtual INT IPWORKS_CALL FireDataIn(INT &iConnectionId, INT &iDataFormat, LPSTR &lpText, INT &lenText, BOOL &bEOM, BOOL &bEOL);

class WSServerDataInEventParams {
public:
  int ConnectionId();

  int DataFormat();

  const QByteArray &Text();

  bool EOM();

  bool EOL();

  int EventRetVal();
  void SetEventRetVal(int iRetVal);
};

// To handle, connect one or more slots to this signal.
void DataIn(WSServerDataInEventParams *e);

// Or, subclass WSServer and override this emitter function.
virtual int FireDataIn(WSServerDataInEventParams *e) {...}

Remarks

The DataIn event provides the data received from the client identified by the ConnectionId parameter.

The incoming data are provided through the Text parameter.

The DataFormat parameter identifies the encoding (if any) of the data. Possible value are as follows:


0	If LineMode is disabled, a value of 0 indicates a continuation packet. If LineMode is enabled, the value will always be 0, regardless of packet type.
1	The data are UTF-8 encoded.
2	The data are binary and have no encoding.

The EOM parameter stands for End of Message. By default, the class will fire the DataIn event as data are received. Larger messages will be fragmented and will cause the event to fire multiple times. When EOM is True within the event, this indicates the current fragment is also the final fragment of the message. The class may also be configured to buffer the message internally until the complete message is received. To enable this, set BufferMessage to True.

The EOL parameter stands for End of Line. When LineMode is False, EOL will always be False. When LineMode is True, EOL will be True if the DataIn event fired because an EOL was received and will be False if the DataIn event fired because MaxLineLength was reached.

Disconnected Event (WSServer Class)

This event is fired when a WebSocket connection is disconnected.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
virtual int FireDisconnected(WSServerDisconnectedEventParams *e);

typedef struct {
  int ConnectionId;
  int StatusCode;
  const char *Description;
  int reserved;
} WSServerDisconnectedEventParams;


Unicode (Windows)
virtual INT FireDisconnected(WSServerDisconnectedEventParams *e);

typedef struct {

virtual INT IPWORKS_CALL FireDisconnected(INT &iConnectionId, INT &iStatusCode, LPSTR &lpszDescription);

class WSServerDisconnectedEventParams {
public:
  int ConnectionId();

  int StatusCode();

  const QString &Description();

  int EventRetVal();
  void SetEventRetVal(int iRetVal);
};

// To handle, connect one or more slots to this signal.
void Disconnected(WSServerDisconnectedEventParams *e);

// Or, subclass WSServer and override this emitter function.
virtual int FireDisconnected(WSServerDisconnectedEventParams *e) {...}

Remarks

When the connection is closed the StatusCode parameter may be used to determine if the disconnect occurred normally or if there was an error condition. If the connection is closed normally, the StatusCode will be 1000. The Description parameter will contain a textual description returned by the server. Common StatusCode values are as follows:


1000 (default)	Normal closure.
1001	The resource is going away. For instance, the server is shutting down or a browser is navigating away from the page.
1002	A protocol error occurred.
1003	Unexpected data were received (e.g., an endpoint that accepts only text data could send this if binary data are received).
1007	Invalid payload data were received (e.g., an endpoint that receives non-UTF-8 data in a text message could send this).
1008	A generic code that indicates the endpoint received a message that violates its policy.
1009	A message that was too large was received.
1010	A required extension could not be negotiated.
1011	An unexpected error occurred.

  int EventRetVal();
  void SetEventRetVal(int iRetVal);
};

// To handle, connect one or more slots to this signal.
void Log(WSServerLogEventParams *e);

// Or, subclass WSServer and override this emitter function.
virtual int FireLog(WSServerLogEventParams *e) {...}

Remarks

This event fires once for each log message generated by the class. The verbosity is controlled by the LogLevel setting.

LogLevel indicates the level of message. Possible values are as follows:


0 (None)	No events are logged.
1 (Info - default)	Informational events are logged.
2 (Verbose)	Detailed data are logged.
3 (Debug)	Debug data are logged.

The value 1 (Info) logs basic information including the URL, HTTP version, and connection status details.

The value 2 (Verbose) logs additional information about the initial HTTP request.

The value 3 (Debug) logs additional debug information (if available).

Message is the log entry.

LogType identifies the type of log entry. Possible values are as follows:

"Info"
"Error"
"Verbose"
"Debug"

ConnectionId specifies the Id of the connection to which the log applies.

Ping Event (WSServer Class)

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
virtual int FirePing(WSServerPingEventParams *e);

typedef struct {
  int ConnectionId;
  const char *Payload;
  int lenPayload;
  int Response;
  int reserved;
} WSServerPingEventParams;


Unicode (Windows)
virtual INT FirePing(WSServerPingEventParams *e);

typedef struct {
  INT ConnectionId;
  LPCSTR Payload;
  INT lenPayload;
  BOOL Response;
  INT reserved;
} WSServerPingEventParams;

#define EID_WSSERVER_PING 7

virtual INT IPWORKS_CALL FirePing(INT &iConnectionId, LPSTR &lpPayload, INT &lenPayload, BOOL &bResponse);

class WSServerPingEventParams {
public:
  int ConnectionId();

  const QByteArray &Payload();

  bool Response();

  int EventRetVal();
  void SetEventRetVal(int iRetVal);
};

// To handle, connect one or more slots to this signal.
void Ping(WSServerPingEventParams *e);

// Or, subclass WSServer and override this emitter function.
virtual int FirePing(WSServerPingEventParams *e) {...}

Remarks

This event fires when a ping request or response is received from the client identified by the ConnectionId parameter. This event is informational only. When the class receives a ping request, it will automatically reply with a pong.

Payload holds the payload of the request, if any.

Response is true if the incoming packet is a ping response. If the incoming packet is a ping request this is false.

ReadyToSend Event (WSServer Class)

This event is fired when the class is ready to send data.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
virtual int FireReadyToSend(WSServerReadyToSendEventParams *e);

typedef struct {
  int ConnectionId;
  int reserved;
} WSServerReadyToSendEventParams;


Unicode (Windows)
virtual INT FireReadyToSend(WSServerReadyToSendEventParams *e);

typedef struct {
  INT ConnectionId;
  INT reserved;
} WSServerReadyToSendEventParams;

#define EID_WSSERVER_READYTOSEND 8

virtual INT IPWORKS_CALL FireReadyToSend(INT &iConnectionId);

class WSServerReadyToSendEventParams {
public:
  int ConnectionId();

  int EventRetVal();
  void SetEventRetVal(int iRetVal);
};

// To handle, connect one or more slots to this signal.
void ReadyToSend(WSServerReadyToSendEventParams *e);

// Or, subclass WSServer and override this emitter function.
virtual int FireReadyToSend(WSServerReadyToSendEventParams *e) {...}

Remarks

The ReadyToSend event indicates that the underlying Transmission Control Protocol (TCP)/IP subsystem is ready to accept data after a failed Send. This event is also fired immediately after a connection is established.

SSLClientAuthentication Event (WSServer Class)

This event is fired when the client presents its credentials to the server.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
virtual int FireSSLClientAuthentication(WSServerSSLClientAuthenticationEventParams *e);

typedef struct {
  int ConnectionId;
  const char *CertEncoded;
  int lenCertEncoded;
  const char *CertSubject;
  const char *CertIssuer;
  const char *Status;
  int Accept;
  int reserved;
} WSServerSSLClientAuthenticationEventParams;


Unicode (Windows)
virtual INT FireSSLClientAuthentication(WSServerSSLClientAuthenticationEventParams *e);

typedef struct {
  INT ConnectionId;
  LPCSTR CertEncoded;
  INT lenCertEncoded;
  LPCWSTR CertSubject;
  LPCWSTR CertIssuer;
  LPCWSTR Status;
  BOOL Accept;
  INT reserved;
} WSServerSSLClientAuthenticationEventParams;

#define EID_WSSERVER_SSLCLIENTAUTHENTICATION 9

virtual INT IPWORKS_CALL FireSSLClientAuthentication(INT &iConnectionId, LPSTR &lpCertEncoded, INT &lenCertEncoded, LPSTR &lpszCertSubject, LPSTR &lpszCertIssuer, LPSTR &lpszStatus, BOOL &bAccept);

class WSServerSSLClientAuthenticationEventParams {
public:
  int ConnectionId();

  const QByteArray &CertEncoded();

  const QString &CertSubject();

  const QString &CertIssuer();

  const QString &Status();

  bool Accept();
  void SetAccept(bool bAccept);

  int EventRetVal();
  void SetEventRetVal(int iRetVal);
};

// To handle, connect one or more slots to this signal.
void SSLClientAuthentication(WSServerSSLClientAuthenticationEventParams *e);

// Or, subclass WSServer and override this emitter function.
virtual int FireSSLClientAuthentication(WSServerSSLClientAuthenticationEventParams *e) {...}

Remarks

This event enables the server to decide whether or not to continue. The Accept parameter is a recommendation on whether to continue or to close the connection. This is just a suggestion: application software must use its own logic to determine whether or not to continue.

When Accept is False, Status shows why the verification failed (otherwise, Status contains the string "OK").

SSLConnectionRequest Event (WSServer Class)

This event fires when a Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) connection is requested.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
virtual int FireSSLConnectionRequest(WSServerSSLConnectionRequestEventParams *e);

typedef struct {
  int ConnectionId;
  const char *SupportedCipherSuites;
  const char *SupportedSignatureAlgs;
  int CertStoreType;

  void SetCertPassword(const QString &qsCertPassword);

  const QString &CertSubject();
  void SetCertSubject(const QString &qsCertSubject);

  int EventRetVal();
  void SetEventRetVal(int iRetVal);
};

// To handle, connect one or more slots to this signal.
void SSLConnectionRequest(WSServerSSLConnectionRequestEventParams *e);

// Or, subclass WSServer and override this emitter function.
virtual int FireSSLConnectionRequest(WSServerSSLConnectionRequestEventParams *e) {...}

Remarks

This event fires when an SSL connection is requested and SSLProvider is set to Internal. This event provides an opportunity to select an alternative certificate to the connecting client. This event does not fire when SSLProvider is set to Platform.

This event allows the class to be configured to use both RSA and ECDSA certificates depending on the connecting client's capabilities.

ConnectionId is the connection Id of the client requesting the connection.

SupportedCipherSuites is a comma-separated list of cipher suites that the client supports.

SupportedSignatureAlgs is a comma-separated list of certificate signature algorithms that the client supports.

CertStoreType is the store type of the alternate certificate to use for this connection. The class supports both public and private keys in a variety of formats. When the cstAuto value is used, the class will automatically determine the type. This field can take one of the following values:


0 (cstUser - default)	For Windows, this specifies that the certificate store is a certificate store owned by the current user. Note: This store type is not available in Java.
1 (cstMachine)	For Windows, this specifies that the certificate store is a machine store. Note: This store type is not available in Java.
2 (cstPFXFile)	The certificate store is the name of a PFX (PKCS#12) file containing certificates.
3 (cstPFXBlob)	The certificate store is a string (binary or Base64-encoded) representing a certificate store in PFX (PKCS#12) format.
4 (cstJKSFile)	The certificate store is the name of a Java Key Store (JKS) file containing certificates. Note: This store type is only available in Java.
5 (cstJKSBlob)	The certificate store is a string (binary or Base64-encoded) representing a certificate store in Java Key Store (JKS) format. Note: This store type is only available in Java.
6 (cstPEMKeyFile)	The certificate store is the name of a PEM-encoded file that contains a private key and an optional certificate.
7 (cstPEMKeyBlob)	The certificate store is a string (binary or Base64-encoded) that contains a private key and an optional certificate.
8 (cstPublicKeyFile)	The certificate store is the name of a file that contains a PEM- or DER-encoded public key certificate.
9 (cstPublicKeyBlob)	The certificate store is a string (binary or Base64-encoded) that contains a PEM- or DER-encoded public key certificate.
10 (cstSSHPublicKeyBlob)	The certificate store is a string (binary or Base64-encoded) that contains an SSH-style public key.
11 (cstP7BFile)	The certificate store is the name of a PKCS#7 file containing certificates.
12 (cstP7BBlob)	The certificate store is a string (binary) representing a certificate store in PKCS#7 format.
13 (cstSSHPublicKeyFile)	The certificate store is the name of a file that contains an SSH-style public key.
14 (cstPPKFile)	The certificate store is the name of a file that contains a PPK (PuTTY Private Key).
15 (cstPPKBlob)	The certificate store is a string (binary) that contains a PPK (PuTTY Private Key).
16 (cstXMLFile)	The certificate store is the name of a file that contains a certificate in XML format.
17 (cstXMLBlob)	The certificate store is a string that contains a certificate in XML format.
18 (cstJWKFile)	The certificate store is the name of a file that contains a JWK (JSON Web Key).
19 (cstJWKBlob)	The certificate store is a string that contains a JWK (JSON Web Key).
21 (cstBCFKSFile)	The certificate store is the name of a file that contains a BCFKS (Bouncy Castle FIPS Key Store). Note: This store type is only available in Java and .NET.
22 (cstBCFKSBlob)	The certificate store is a string (binary or Base64-encoded) representing a certificate store in BCFKS (Bouncy Castle FIPS Key Store) format. Note: This store type is only available in Java and .NET.
23 (cstPKCS11)	The certificate is present on a physical security key accessible via a PKCS#11 interface. To use a security key, the necessary data must first be collected using the CertMgr class. The ListStoreCertificates method may be called after setting CertStoreType to `cstPKCS11`, CertStorePassword to the PIN, and CertStore to the full path of the PKCS#11 DLL. The certificate information returned in the CertList event's `CertEncoded` parameter may be saved for later use. When using a certificate, pass the previously saved security key information as the Store and set StorePassword to the PIN. Code Example. SSH Authentication with Security Key: `certmgr.CertStoreType = CertStoreTypes.cstPKCS11; certmgr.OnCertList += (s, e) => { secKeyBlob = e.CertEncoded; }; certmgr.CertStore = @"C:\Program Files\OpenSC Project\OpenSC\pkcs11\opensc-pkcs11.dll"; certmgr.CertStorePassword = "123456"; //PIN certmgr.ListStoreCertificates(); sftp.SSHCert = new Certificate(CertStoreTypes.cstPKCS11, secKeyBlob, "123456", "*"); sftp.SSHUser = "test"; sftp.SSHLogon("myhost", 22);`
99 (cstAuto)	The store type is automatically detected from the input data. This setting may be used with both public and private keys and can detect any of the supported formats automatically.

CertStore is the store name or location of the alternate certificate to use for this connection.

Designations of certificate stores are platform dependent.

The following designations are the most common User and Machine certificate stores in Windows:


MY	A certificate store holding personal certificates with their associated private keys.
CA	Certifying authority certificates.
ROOT	Root certificates.

When the certificate store type is cstPFXFile, this property must be set to the name of the file. When the type is cstPFXBlob, the property must be set to the binary contents of a PFX file (i.e., PKCS#12 certificate store).

CertPassword is the password of the certificate store containing the alternate certificate to use for this connection.

CertSubject is the subject of the alternate certificate to use for this connection.

The special value * matches any subject and will select the first certificate in the store. The certificate subject is a comma-separated list of distinguished name fields and values. For instance, "CN=www.server.com, OU=test, C=US, E=support@nsoftware.com". Common fields and their meanings are as follows:


Field	Meaning
CN	Common Name. This is commonly a hostname like www.server.com.
O	Organization
OU	Organizational Unit
L	Locality
S	State
C	Country
E	Email Address

If a field value contains a comma, it must be quoted.

By default, the class will accept the connection. You do not need to set anything to accept the connection. The class will return a StatusCode of 101 to the connecting client, and the request will proceed as normal. To reject a connection, set StatusCode to an HTTP error code, such as 401.

ConnectionId identifies the connecting client.

RequestURI provides the URI requested by the connecting client. This may be used to implement logic to select appropriate SubProtocols or to determine if the connection should be accepted based on access restrictions to the URI.

HostHeader holds the value of the Host header sent by the client.

OriginHeader holds the value of the Origin header sent by the client.

SubProtocols holds a comma-separated list of subprotocols sent by the client (if any). Set SubProtocols to the selected value from the list sent by the client. The class will return this value to the client as the subprotocol the server has selected.

Extensions provides a list of extensions supported by the client.

RequestHeaders contains the HTTP headers sent in the request by the connecting client.

StatusCode determines success or failure. The value 101 (default) indicates success. This may be set to any HTTP status code. For instance, a value of 401 indicates an authorization failure.

ResponseHeaders may be set to include additional headers in the response. This is typically used when rejecting a request. For instance when StatusCode is set to 401, you might set ResponseHeaders to "WWW-Authenticate: Basic realm="Secure Realm"" to request authorization from the connecting client.

Certificate Type

This is the digital certificate being used.

Syntax

IPWorksCertificate (declared in ipworks.h)

Store
char*
Default Value: "MY"

The name of the certificate store for the client certificate.

The StoreType field denotes the type of the certificate store specified by Store. If the store is password-protected, specify the password in StorePassword.

Store is used in conjunction with the Subject field to specify client certificates. If Store has a value, and Subject or Encoded is set, a search for a certificate is initiated. Please see the Subject field for details.

Designations of certificate stores are platform dependent.

The following designations are the most common User and Machine certificate stores in Windows:


MY	A certificate store holding personal certificates with their associated private keys.
CA	Certifying authority certificates.
ROOT	Root certificates.

StorePassword
char*
Default Value: ""

If the type of certificate store requires a password, this field is used to specify the password needed to open the certificate store.

StoreType
int
Default Value: 0

The type of certificate store for this certificate.

The class supports both public and private keys in a variety of formats. When the cstAuto value is used, the class will automatically determine the type. This field can take one of the following values:


0 (cstUser - default)	For Windows, this specifies that the certificate store is a certificate store owned by the current user. Note: This store type is not available in Java.
1 (cstMachine)	For Windows, this specifies that the certificate store is a machine store. Note: This store type is not available in Java.
2 (cstPFXFile)	The certificate store is the name of a PFX (PKCS#12) file containing certificates.
3 (cstPFXBlob)	The certificate store is a string (binary or Base64-encoded) representing a certificate store in PFX (PKCS#12) format.
4 (cstJKSFile)	The certificate store is the name of a Java Key Store (JKS) file containing certificates. Note: This store type is only available in Java.
5 (cstJKSBlob)	The certificate store is a string (binary or Base64-encoded) representing a certificate store in Java Key Store (JKS) format. Note: This store type is only available in Java.

23 (cstPKCS11)	The certificate is present on a physical security key accessible via a PKCS#11 interface. To use a security key, the necessary data must first be collected using the CertMgr class. The ListStoreCertificates method may be called after setting CertStoreType to `cstPKCS11`, CertStorePassword to the PIN, and CertStore to the full path of the PKCS#11 DLL. The certificate information returned in the CertList event's `CertEncoded` parameter may be saved for later use. When using a certificate, pass the previously saved security key information as the Store and set StorePassword to the PIN. Code Example. SSH Authentication with Security Key: `certmgr.CertStoreType = CertStoreTypes.cstPKCS11; certmgr.OnCertList += (s, e) => { secKeyBlob = e.CertEncoded; }; certmgr.CertStore = @"C:\Program Files\OpenSC Project\OpenSC\pkcs11\opensc-pkcs11.dll"; certmgr.CertStorePassword = "123456"; //PIN certmgr.ListStoreCertificates(); sftp.SSHCert = new Certificate(CertStoreTypes.cstPKCS11, secKeyBlob, "123456", "*"); sftp.SSHUser = "test"; sftp.SSHLogon("myhost", 22);`

Version
char* (read-only)
Default Value: ""

The certificate's version number. The possible values are the strings "V1", "V2", and "V3".

Subject
char*
Default Value: ""

The subject of the certificate used for client authentication.

This property must be set after all other certificate properties are set. When this property is set, a search is performed in the current certificate store to locate a certificate with a matching subject.

If a matching certificate is found, the field is set to the full subject of the matching certificate.

If an exact match is not found, the store is searched for subjects containing the value of the property.

If a match is still not found, the property is set to an empty string, and no certificate is selected.

The special value "*" picks a random certificate in the certificate store.

The certificate subject is a comma-separated list of distinguished name fields and values. For instance, "CN=www.server.com, OU=test, C=US, E=support@nsoftware.com". Common fields and their meanings are as follows:


Field	Meaning
CN	Common Name. This is commonly a hostname like www.server.com.
O	Organization
OU	Organizational Unit
L	Locality
S	State
C	Country
E	Email Address

If a field value contains a comma, it must be quoted.

Encoded
char*
Default Value: ""

The certificate (PEM/Base64 encoded). This field is used to assign a specific certificate. The Store and Subject fields also may be used to specify a certificate.

When Encoded is set, a search is initiated in the current Store for the private key of the certificate. If the key is found, Subject is updated to reflect the full subject of the selected certificate; otherwise, Subject is set to an empty string.

Constructors

Certificate()

Creates a instance whose properties can be set. This is useful for use with when generating new certificates.

Certificate(const char* lpEncoded, int lenEncoded)

Parses Encoded as an X.509 public key.

Certificate(int iStoreType, const char* lpStore, int lenStore, const char* lpszStorePassword, const char* lpszSubject)

StoreType identifies the type of certificate store to use. See for descriptions of the different certificate stores. Store is a byte array containing the certificate data. StorePassword is the password used to protect the store.

After the store has been successfully opened, the component will attempt to find the certificate identified by Subject . This can be either a complete or a substring match of the X.509 certificate's subject Distinguished Name (DN). The Subject parameter can also take an MD5, SHA-1, or SHA-256 thumbprint of the certificate to load in a "Thumbprint=value" format.

WSConnection Type

This type describes a currently connected client.

Syntax

IPWorksWSConnection (declared in ipworks.h)

Remarks

This type describes the connection of a client that is currently connected to the class. You may use the different fields of this type to manage the connection.

The following fields are available:

Fields

AcceptData
int (read-only)
Default Value: TRUE

This field indicates whether data reception is currently enabled. When false, data reception is disabled and the DataIn event will not fire for the connection. Use the PauseData and ProcessData methods to pause and resume data reception.

BytesSent
int (read-only)
Default Value: 0

This field shows how many bytes were sent after calling Send or SendBytes. Please see Send or SendBytes for more information.

Note: This field will always return 0 when the class is operating in the synchronous mode (i.e., the Timeout property is set to a positive value).

Connected
int (read-only)
Default Value: FALSE

This field indicates the status of individual connections.

When true, the connection is established. Use the Disconnect method to disconnect an existing connection.

ConnectionId
int (read-only)
Default Value: 0

This field contains an identifier generated by the class to identify each connection. This identifier is unique to this connection.

DataFormat
int
Default Value: 0

This field includes the format of the data being sent. When data are sent over an established connection, it is either considered as text or binary data. Text data are UTF-8 encoded. Binary data have no encoding associated with it.

Possible values are as follows:


0 (dfAutomatic - default)	The class will attempt to automatically determine the correct data format. This is suitable for most cases.
1 (dfText)	The class will UTF-8 encode the specified data before sending. Data that already have been UTF-8 encoded also may be supplied.
2 (dfBinary)	The class will send the data exactly as they are provided.
9 (dfPing)	The class will send the ping with data exactly as they are provided.
10 (dfPong)	The class will send the pong with data exactly as they are provided.

Host
char* (read-only)
Default Value: ""

This field includes the Host header value of the connected client.

LineMode
int (read-only)
Default Value: FALSE

When LineMode is False (default), the component will fire the DataIn event once for each message received from the server. When LineMode is True, the component will instead fire DataIn for each line of data received. The maximum length of a line can be controlled by the MaxLineLength configuration setting.

Note: This property is read-only and should be set through the ChangeLineMode method.

LocalAddress
char* (read-only)
Default Value: ""

This field shows the IP address of the interface through which the connection is passing.

LocalAddress is important for multihomed hosts so that it can be used to find the particular network interface through which an individual connection is going.

Origin
char* (read-only)
Default Value: ""

This field includes the origin header value of the connected client.

ReadyToSend
int (read-only)
Default Value: FALSE

This field indicates whether the class is ready to send data.

This is true after a client connects but will become false after a failed call to Send or SendBytes. After a failed call to Send or SendBytes, the ReadyToSend event will fire and this field will be true when data can be sent again.

RemoteHost
char* (read-only)
Default Value: ""

This field shows the IP address of the connected client.

The connection must be valid or an error will be fired.

If the class is configured to use a SOCKS firewall, the value assigned to this property may be preceded with an "*". If this is the case, the host name is passed to the firewall unresolved and the firewall performs the DNS resolution.

RemotePort
int (read-only)
Default Value: 0

This field shows the port of the connected client.

The connection must be valid or an error will be fired.

RequestHeaders
char* (read-only)
Default Value: ""

The HTTP headers sent by the client in the initial WebSocket connection request.

RequestURI
char* (read-only)
Default Value: ""

This field includes the requested URI sent by the client in the initial WebSocket connection request.

SubProtocols
char* (read-only)
Default Value: ""

This field includes the subprotocols (application-level protocols layered over the WebSocket Protocol) sent by the client in the initial WebSocket connection request.

Timeout
int
Default Value: 0

This field specifies a timeout for the class.

If the Timeout field is set to 0, all operations return immediately, potentially failing with a WOULDBLOCK error if data cannot be sent immediately.

If Timeout is set to a positive value, data is sent in a blocking manner and the class will wait for the operation to complete before returning control. The class will handle any potential WOULDBLOCK errors internally and automatically retry the operation for a maximum of Timeout seconds.

The class will use DoEvents to enter an efficient wait loop during any potential waiting period, making sure that all system events are processed immediately as they arrive. This ensures that the host application does not freeze and remains responsive.

If Timeout expires, and the operation is not yet complete, the class fails with an error.

Note: By default, all timeouts are inactivity timeouts, that is, the timeout period is extended by Timeout seconds when any amount of data is successfully sent or received.

The default value for the Timeout field is 0 (asynchronous operation).

Constructors

WSConnection()

IPWorksList Type

Syntax

IPWorksList<T> (declared in ipworks.h)

Remarks

IPWorksList is a generic class that is used to hold a collection of objects of type T, where T is one of the custom types supported by the WSServer class.

Methods

GetCount	This method returns the current size of the collection. int GetCount() {}
SetCount	This method sets the size of the collection. This method returns `0` if setting the size was successful; or `-1` if the collection is `ReadOnly`. When adding additional objects to a collection call this method to specify the new size. Increasing the size of the collection preserves existing objects in the collection. int SetCount(int count) {}
Get	This method gets the item at the specified position. The `index` parameter specifies the index of the item in the collection. This method returns `NULL` if an invalid `index` is specified. T* Get(int index) {}
Set	This method sets the item at the specified position. The `index` parameter specifies the index of the item in the collection that is being set. This method returns `-1` if an invalid `index` is specified. Note: Objects created using the `new` operator must be freed using the `delete` operator; they will not be automatically freed by the class. T* Set(int index, T* value) {}

Config Settings (WSServer Class)

The class accepts one or more of the following configuration settings. Configuration settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the class, access to these internal properties is provided through the Config method.

WebSocketServer Config Settings

BufferMessage: Indicates whether or not the entire message is buffered before firing the DataIn event.

When receiving large messages the DataIn, this event may fire multiple times to provide data as it is received in each message fragment. When BufferMessage is set to True, the class will internally buffer the message as it is received until it is complete before firing the DataIn event. The default value is False.

DisconnectStatusCode: Specifies the status code when closing a connection.

When the Disconnect method is called, the class will send the status code specified here. By default, the value is 1,000, which indicates a normal closure. Any other value represents an error condition. You may set any value you wish, but the protocol defines the following common values.


1000 (default)	Normal closure.
1001	The resource is going away. For instance, the server is shutting down or a browser is navigating away from the page.
1002	A protocol error occurred.
1003	Unexpected data were received (e.g., an endpoint that accepts only text data could send this if binary data are received).
1007	Invalid payload data were received (e.g., an endpoint that receives non-UTF-8 data in a text message could send this).
1008	A generic code that indicates the endpoint received a message that violates its policy.
1009	A message that was too large was received.
1010	A required extension could not be negotiated.
1011	An unexpected error occurred.

DisconnectStatusDescription: Specifies the message associated with the disconnect status code.

This configuration setting may be used to provide a textual description of the status code sent when closing the connection. This configuration setting works in conjunction with DisconnectStatusCode. For any of the standard codes listed in DisconnectStatusCode, the class will use a default description that may be overridden with this setting. For any nonstandard codes that are not listed, this setting should be set or no description will be sent.

EnablePermessageDeflate: Determines whether or not the class will enable the permessage-deflate extension.

When true, the class will allow the permessage-deflate extension to be enabled, if the WebSocket client requests the permessage-deflate extension. When this setting is set to false, the class will keep the permessage-deflate extension disabled, regardless of what the WebSocket client requests.

The default value is true.

MaxFrameSize: Specifies the maximum size of the outgoing message in bytes before fragmentation occurs.

This configuration setting specifies the maximum size of the outgoing message in bytes before fragmentation will occur. When a message that is larger than MaxFrameSize is sent, it will be broken into fragments with the maximum size specified here. The default value is 131072 (128K).

When a message is fragmented, the receiving side may check the EOM parameter of the DataIn event to determine when the message is complete.

Note: When Timeout is set to 0 messages that are fragmented are always sent as individual smaller messages and EOM will always be True in the DataIn event on the receiving side.

MaxLineLength[ConnectionId]: Determines the maximum line length for a connection when LineMode is True.

When LineMode is True, setting this will cause the component to fire the DataIn event when the length of the received data reaches the value of this setting. When the DataIn event fires, the EOL parameter will be False if this setting caused the event to fire and True if an EOL caused the event to fire.

MessageLength[ConnectionId]: The length of the message (in bytes) when sending asynchronously.

This configuration setting specifies the length of messages being sent when operating asynchronously.

When DefaultTimeout is set to 0 the class operates asynchronously and, by default, all data sent when Send is called is considered a complete message. Each packet leaving the class has the End-of-Message flag set.

To send messages that may be fragmented, set MessageLength to the length of the message (in bytes) that is being sent. When set, the class will consider the next MessageLength bytes sent as part of a single message and only the last packet will set the End-of-Message flag.

This setting is helpful when data are organized into messages and the receiving side expected the End-of-Message flag to signal the end of a message.

Note: This configuration setting is applicable only when DefaultTimeout is set to 0. When DefaultTimeout is set to a positive value, the message data may be passed in its entirety to Send and will be automatically handled as needed by the class.

WaitForCloseResponse: Determines whether or not the class will forcibly close a connection.

When this configuration setting is set to True (default), the class will wait for a response from the client when closing the connection. When this configuration setting is set to False, the class will forcibly close the connection without waiting for a response from the client.

TCPServer Config Settings

AllowedClients: A comma-separated list of host names or IP addresses that can access the class.

This configuration setting defines a comma-separated list of host names or IPv4 addresses that may access the class. The wildcard character "*" is supported. The default value is "*" and all connections are accepted.

When a client connects, the client's address is checked against the list defined here. If there is no match, the ConnectionRequest event fires with an Accept value set to false. If no action is taken within the ConnectionRequest event, the client will be disconnected.

BindExclusively: Whether or not the component considers a local port reserved for exclusive use.

If this is true (default), the component will bind to the local port with the ExclusiveAddressUse option set, meaning that nothing else can bind to the same port. Also the component will not be able to bind to local ports that are already in use by some other instance, and attempts to do so will result in failure.

BlockedClients: A comma-separated list of host names or IP addresses that cannot access the class.

This configuration setting defines a comma-separated list of host names or IPv4 addresses that cannot access the class.The default value is "" and all connections are accepted.

When a client connects, the client's address is checked against the list defined here. If there is a match, the ConnectionRequest event fires with an Accept value set to false. If no action is taken within the ConnectionRequest event, the client will not be connected.

ConnectionUID: The unique connectionId for a connection.

Connection Ids may be reused as clients connect and disconnect. Querying ConnectionUID will return a unique identifier for that connection Id. If the specified connection Id does not exist, then ConnectionUID will return 0. For example:

Connection5UID = obj.config("ConnectionUID[5]")

DefaultConnectionTimeout: The inactivity timeout applied to the SSL handshake.

This configuration setting specifies the inactivity (in seconds) to apply to incoming Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) connections. When set to a positive value, if the other end is unresponsive for the specified number of seconds, the connection will timeout. This is not applicable to the entire handshake. It is applicable only to the inactivity of the connecting client during the handshake if a response is expected and none is received within the timeout window. The default value is 0, and no connection-specific timeout is applied.

Note: This is applicable only to incoming SSL connections. This should be set only if there is a specific reason to do so.

InBufferSize: The size in bytes of the incoming queue of the socket.

This is the size of an internal queue in the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP)/IP stack. You can increase or decrease its size depending on the amount of data that you will be receiving. Increasing the value of the InBufferSize setting can provide significant improvements in performance in some cases.

Some TCP/IP implementations do not support variable buffer sizes. If that is the case, when the class is activated, the InBufferSize reverts to its defined size. The same thing will happen if you attempt to make it too large or too small.

InBufferSize is shared among incoming connections. When the property is set, the corresponding value is set for incoming connections as they are accepted. Existing connections are not modified.

KeepAliveInterval: The retry interval, in milliseconds, to be used when a TCP keep-alive packet is sent and no response is received.

A TCP keep-alive packet will be sent after a period of inactivity, as defined by KeepAliveTime. If no acknowledgment is received from the remote host, the keep-alive packet will be sent again. This setting specifies the interval at which the successive keep-alive packets are sent in milliseconds. If this value is not specified here, the system default is 1 second. This setting is applicable to all connections.

Note: This value is not applicable in macOS.

KeepAliveRetryCount: The number of keep-alive packets to be sent before the remotehost is considered disconnected.

A TCP keep-alive packet will be sent after a period of inactivity, as defined by KeepAliveTime. If no acknowledgment is received from the remote host, the keep-alive packet will be sent again. This setting specifies the number of times that the keep-alive packets will be sent again before the remote host is considered disconnected. If this value is not specified here, the system default is 9.

Note: This configuration setting is available only in the Unix platform, and it is not supported in macOS or FreeBSD.

KeepAliveTime: The inactivity time in milliseconds before a TCP keep-alive packet is sent.

By default, the operating system will determine the time a connection is idle before a TCP keep-alive packet is sent. If this value is not specified here, the system default is 2 hours. In many cases, a shorter interval is more useful. Set this value to the desired interval in milliseconds. This setting is applicable to all connections.

MaxConnections: The maximum number of connections available.

This is the maximum number of connections available. This property must be set before Listening is set to true, and once set, it can no longer be changed for the current instance of the class. The maximum value for this setting is 100,000 connections. Use this setting with caution. Extremely large values may affect performance. The default value is 1000.

Note: Unix/Linux operating systems limit the number of simultaneous connections to 1024.

MaxReadTime: The maximum time spent reading data from each connection.

This setting specifies the maximum time in milliseconds that the class will spend reading data from a particular connection before servicing other connections. When a single client is sending data to the class at a high rate this setting is used to ensure that other connections are serviced in a timely manner. Specifying a positive value prevents a single client from monopolizing the class's resources. The special value of 0 indicates no limit and is generally not recommended.

The default value is 50 (milliseconds).

OutBufferSize: The size in bytes of the outgoing queue of the socket.

This is the size of an internal queue in the TCP/IP stack. You can increase or decrease its size depending on the amount of data that you will be sending. Increasing the value of the OutBufferSize setting can provide significant improvements in performance in some cases.

Some TCP/IP implementations do not support variable buffer sizes. If that is the case, when the class is activated the OutBufferSize reverts to its defined size. The same thing will happen if you attempt to make it too large or too small.

OutBufferSize is shared among incoming connections. When the property is set, the corresponding value is set for incoming connections as they are accepted. Existing connections are not modified.

TcpNoDelay: Whether or not to delay when sending packets.

When set to True, the socket will send all data that are ready to send at once. When set to False, the socket will send smaller buffered packets of data at small intervals. This is known as the Nagle algorithm.

By default, this configuration setting is set to False.

UseIOCP: Whether to use the completion port I/O model.

The default value is false. When set to true, the class will use an I/O Completion Port (IOCP) to manage operations on sockets. A single completion port allows the asynchronous notification of network events on an entire group of sockets. This property must be set before Listening is set to true.

Nothing else is required to begin accepting IOCP connections. One major benefit to using this model is that there will be no thread blocked waiting for a request to complete. The system notifies the process through an Asynchronous Procedure Call (APC) once the device driver finishes servicing the I/O request. IOCP allows a single I/O worker thread handle multiple clients' input/output "fairly".

Note: When set to true, this setting will automatically set UseWindowsMessages to false.

UseIPv6: Whether to use IPv6.

When set to 0 (default), the class will use IPv4 exclusively. When set to 1, the class will use IPv6 exclusively. When set to 2, the class will listen for both IPv4 and IPv6 connections. If IPv6 is not available on the system, only IPv4 will be used. The default value is 0. Possible values are as follows:


0	IPv4 Only
1	IPv6 Only
2	IPv6 and IPv4

UseWindowsMessages: Whether to use the WSAAsyncSelect I/O model.

The default value is true, and the class will receive a Windows message-based notification of network events. Turning on Windows message notifications allows the application to get connect, send, receive, and socket closure network event notifications on a socket. This property must be set before Listening is set to true.

Nothing else is required to begin accepting connections using the Windows message queue. In high-traffic environments, messages will be discarded if the queue is full. Additionally, because a single window procedure will service all events on thousands of sockets, the Windows message queue is not scalable from a performance perspective.

If this setting is set to false, the class will instead use the Winsock select model instead. The component supports additional I/O models. Please see UseIOCP for more information.

SSL Config Settings

LogSSLPackets: Controls whether SSL packets are logged when using the internal security API.

When SSLProvider is set to Internal, this configuration setting controls whether Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) packets should be logged. By default, this configuration setting is False, as it is useful only for debugging purposes.

When enabled, SSL packet logs are output using the SSLStatus event, which will fire each time an SSL packet is sent or received.

Enabling this configuration setting has no effect if SSLProvider is set to Platform.

OpenSSLCADir: The path to a directory containing CA certificates.

This functionality is available only when the provider is OpenSSL.

The path set by this property should point to a directory containing CA certificates in PEM format. The files each contain one CA certificate. The files are looked up by the CA subject name hash value, which must hence be available. If more than one CA certificate with the same name hash value exist, the extension must be different (e.g., 9d66eef0.0, 9d66eef0.1). OpenSSL recommends the use of the c_rehash utility to create the necessary links. Please refer to the OpenSSL man page SSL_CTX_load_verify_locations(3) for details.

OpenSSLCAFile: Name of the file containing the list of CA's trusted by your application.

This functionality is available only when the provider is OpenSSL.

The file set by this property should contain a list of CA certificates in PEM format. The file can contain several CA certificates identified by the following sequences:

-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----

... (CA certificate in base64 encoding) ...

-----END CERTIFICATE-----

Before, between, and after the certificate text is allowed, which can be used, for example, for descriptions of the certificates. Refer to the OpenSSL man page SSL_CTX_load_verify_locations(3) for details.

OpenSSLCipherList: A string that controls the ciphers to be used by SSL.

This functionality is available only when the provider is OpenSSL.

The format of this string is described in the OpenSSL man page ciphers(1) section "CIPHER LIST FORMAT". Please refer to it for details. The default string "DEFAULT" is determined at compile time and is normally equivalent to "ALL:!ADH:RC4+RSA:+SSLv2:@STRENGTH".

OpenSSLPrngSeedData: The data to seed the pseudo random number generator (PRNG).

This functionality is available only when the provider is OpenSSL.

By default, OpenSSL uses the device file "/dev/urandom" to seed the PRNG, and setting OpenSSLPrngSeedData is not required. If set, the string specified is used to seed the PRNG.

ReuseSSLSession: Determines if the SSL session is reused.

If set to True, the class will reuse the context if and only if the following criteria are met:

The target host name is the same.
The system cache entry has not expired (default timeout is 10 hours).
The application process that calls the function is the same.
The logon session is the same.
The instance of the class is the same.

SSLCACertFilePaths: The paths to CA certificate files on Unix/Linux.

This configuration setting specifies the paths on disk to CA certificate files on Unix/Linux.

The value is formatted as a list of paths separated by semicolons. The class will check for the existence of each file in the order specified. When a file is found, the CA certificates within the file will be loaded and used to determine the validity of server or client certificates.

The default value is as follows:

/etc/ssl/ca-bundle.pem;/etc/pki/tls/certs/ca-bundle.crt;/etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt;/etc/pki/tls/cacert.pem

SSLCACerts: A newline separated list of CA certificates to be included when performing an SSL handshake.

When SSLProvider is set to Internal, this configuration setting specifies one or more CA certificates to be included with the SSLCert property. Some servers or clients require the entire chain, including CA certificates, to be presented when performing SSL authentication. The value of this configuration setting is a newline-separated (CR/LF) list of certificates. For instance:

-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
MIIEKzCCAxOgAwIBAgIRANTET4LIkxdH6P+CFIiHvTowDQYJKoZIhvcNAQELBQAw
... Intermediate Cert ...
eWHV5OW1K53o/atv59sOiW5K3crjFhsBOd5Q+cJJnU+SWinPKtANXMht+EDvYY2w

... Root Cert ...
d8q23djXZbVYiIfE9ebr4g3152BlVCHZ2GyPdjhIuLeH21VbT/dyEHHA
-----END CERTIFICATE-----

SSLCipherStrength: The minimum cipher strength used for bulk encryption.

This minimum cipher strength is largely dependent on the security modules installed on the system. If the cipher strength specified is not supported, an error will be returned when connections are initiated.

Note: This configuration setting contains the minimum cipher strength requested from the security library. The actual cipher strength used for the connection is shown by the SSLStatus event.

Use this configuration setting with caution. Requesting a lower cipher strength than necessary could potentially cause serious security vulnerabilities in your application.

When the provider is OpenSSL, SSLCipherStrength is currently not supported. This functionality is instead made available through the OpenSSLCipherList configuration setting.

SSLClientCACerts: A newline separated list of CA certificates to use during SSL client certificate validation.

This configuration setting is only applicable to server components (e.g., TCPServer) see SSLServerCACerts for client components (e.g., TCPClient). This setting can be used to optionally specify one or more CA certificates to be used when verifying the client certificate that is presented by the client during the SSL handshake when SSLAuthenticateClients is enabled. When verifying the client's certificate, the certificates trusted by the system will be used as part of the verification process. If the client's CA certificates are not installed to the trusted system store, they may be specified here so they are included when performing the verification process. This configuration setting should be set only if the client's CA certificates are not already trusted on the system and cannot be installed to the trusted system store.

The value of this configuration setting is a newline-separated (CR/LF) list of certificates. For instance:

-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
MIIEKzCCAxOgAwIBAgIRANTET4LIkxdH6P+CFIiHvTowDQYJKoZIhvcNAQELBQAw
... Intermediate Cert ...
eWHV5OW1K53o/atv59sOiW5K3crjFhsBOd5Q+cJJnU+SWinPKtANXMht+EDvYY2w

d8q23djXZbVYiIfE9ebr4g3152BlVCHZ2GyPdjhIuLeH21VbT/dyEHHA
-----END CERTIFICATE-----

SSLEnabledCipherSuites: The cipher suite to be used in an SSL negotiation.

This configuration setting enables the cipher suites to be used in SSL negotiation.

By default, the enabled cipher suites will include all available ciphers ("*").

The special value "*" means that the class will pick all of the supported cipher suites. If SSLEnabledCipherSuites is set to any other value, only the specified cipher suites will be considered.

Multiple cipher suites are separated by semicolons.

Example values when SSLProvider is set to Platform include the following: obj.config("SSLEnabledCipherSuites=*"); obj.config("SSLEnabledCipherSuites=CALG_AES_256"); obj.config("SSLEnabledCipherSuites=CALG_AES_256;CALG_3DES"); Possible values when SSLProvider is set to Platform include the following:

When TLS 1.3 is negotiated (see SSLEnabledProtocols), only the following cipher suites are supported:

TLS_AES_256_GCM_SHA384
TLS_CHACHA20_POLY1305_SHA256
TLS_AES_128_GCM_SHA256

SSLEnabledCipherSuites is used together with SSLCipherStrength.

SSLEnabledProtocols: Used to enable/disable the supported security protocols.

This configuration setting is used to enable or disable the supported security protocols.

Not all supported protocols are enabled by default. The default value is 4032 for client components, and 3072 for server components. To specify a combination of enabled protocol versions set this config to the binary OR of one or more of the following values:


TLS1.3	12288 (Hex 3000)
TLS1.2	3072 (Hex C00) (Default - Client and Server)
TLS1.1	768 (Hex 300) (Default - Client)
TLS1	192 (Hex C0) (Default - Client)
SSL3	48 (Hex 30)
SSL2	12 (Hex 0C)

Note that only TLS 1.2 is enabled for server components that accept incoming connections. This adheres to industry standards to ensure a secure connection. Client components enable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and TLS 1.2 by default and will negotiate the highest mutually supported version when connecting to a server, which should be TLS 1.2 in most cases.

SSLEnabledProtocols: Transport Layer Security (TLS) 1.3 Notes:

By default when TLS 1.3 is enabled, the class will use the internal TLS implementation when the SSLProvider is set to Automatic for all editions.

In editions that are designed to run on Windows, SSLProvider can be set to Platform to use the platform implementation instead of the internal implementation. When configured in this manner, please note that the platform provider is supported only on Windows 11/Windows Server 2022 and up. The default internal provider is available on all platforms and is not restricted to any specific OS version.

If set to 1 (Platform provider), please be aware of the following notes:

The platform provider is available only on Windows 11/Windows Server 2022 and up.
SSLEnabledCipherSuites and other similar SSL configuration settings are not supported.
If SSLEnabledProtocols includes both TLS 1.3 and TLS 1.2, these restrictions are still applicable even if TLS 1.2 is negotiated. Enabling TLS 1.3 with the platform provider changes the implementation used for all TLS versions.

SSLEnabledProtocols: SSL2 and SSL3 Notes:

SSL 2.0 and 3.0 are not supported by the class when the SSLProvider is set to internal. To use SSL 2.0 or SSL 3.0, the platform security API must have the protocols enabled and SSLProvider needs to be set to platform.

SSLEnableRenegotiation: Whether the renegotiation_info SSL extension is supported.

This configuration setting specifies whether the renegotiation_info SSL extension will be used in the request when using the internal security API. This configuration setting is false by default, but it can be set to true to enable the extension.

This configuration setting is applicable only when SSLProvider is set to Internal.

SSLIncludeCertChain: Whether the entire certificate chain is included in the SSLServerAuthentication event.

This configuration setting specifies whether the Encoded parameter of the SSLServerAuthentication event contains the full certificate chain. By default this value is False and only the leaf certificate will be present in the Encoded parameter of the SSLServerAuthentication event.

If set to True, all certificates returned by the server will be present in the Encoded parameter of the SSLServerAuthentication event. This includes the leaf certificate, any intermediate certificate, and the root certificate.

SSLKeyLogFile: The location of a file where per-session secrets are written for debugging purposes.

This configuration setting optionally specifies the full path to a file on disk where per-session secrets are stored for debugging purposes.

When set, the class will save the session secrets in the same format as the SSLKEYLOGFILE environment variable functionality used by most major browsers and tools, such as Chrome, Firefox, and cURL. This file can then be used in tools such as Wireshark to decrypt TLS traffic for debugging purposes. When writing to this file, the class will only append, it will not overwrite previous values.

Note: This configuration setting is applicable only when SSLProvider is set to Internal.

SSLNegotiatedCipher: Returns the negotiated cipher suite.

This configuration setting returns the cipher suite negotiated during the SSL handshake.

Note: For server components (e.g., TCPServer), this is a per-connection configuration setting accessed by passing the ConnectionId. For example: server.Config("SSLNegotiatedCipher[connId]");

SSLNegotiatedCipherStrength: Returns the negotiated cipher suite strength.

This configuration setting returns the strength of the cipher suite negotiated during the SSL handshake.

Note: For server components (e.g., TCPServer), this is a per-connection configuration setting accessed by passing the ConnectionId. For example: server.Config("SSLNegotiatedCipherStrength[connId]");

SSLNegotiatedCipherSuite: Returns the negotiated cipher suite.

This configuration setting returns the cipher suite negotiated during the SSL handshake represented as a single string.

SSLNegotiatedKeyExchange: Returns the negotiated key exchange algorithm.

This configuration setting returns the key exchange algorithm negotiated during the SSL handshake.

SSLNegotiatedKeyExchangeStrength: Returns the negotiated key exchange algorithm strength.

This configuration setting returns the strength of the key exchange algorithm negotiated during the SSL handshake.

SSLNegotiatedVersion: Returns the negotiated protocol version.

This configuration setting returns the protocol version negotiated during the SSL handshake.

Note: For server components (e.g., TCPServer), this is a per-connection configuration setting accessed by passing the ConnectionId. For example: server.Config("SSLNegotiatedVersion[connId]");

SSLSecurityFlags: Flags that control certificate verification.

The following flags are defined (specified in hexadecimal notation). They can be ORed together to exclude multiple conditions:


0x00000001	Ignore time validity status of certificate.
0x00000002	Ignore time validity status of CTL.
0x00000004	Ignore non-nested certificate times.
0x00000010	Allow unknown certificate authority.
0x00000020	Ignore wrong certificate usage.
0x00000100	Ignore unknown certificate revocation status.
0x00000200	Ignore unknown CTL signer revocation status.
0x00000400	Ignore unknown certificate authority revocation status.
0x00000800	Ignore unknown root revocation status.
0x00008000	Allow test root certificate.
0x00004000	Trust test root certificate.
0x80000000	Ignore non-matching CN (certificate CN non-matching server name).

This functionality is currently not available when the provider is OpenSSL.

SSLServerCACerts: A newline separated list of CA certificates to use during SSL server certificate validation.

This configuration setting is only used by client components (e.g., TCPClient) see SSLClientCACerts for server components (e.g., TCPServer). This configuration setting can be used to optionally specify one or more CA certificates to be used when connecting to the server and verifying the server certificate. When verifying the server's certificate, the certificates trusted by the system will be used as part of the verification process. If the server's CA certificates are not installed to the trusted system store, they may be specified here so they are included when performing the verification process. This configuration setting should be set only if the server's CA certificates are not already trusted on the system and cannot be installed to the trusted system store.

The value of this configuration setting is a newline-separated (CR/LF) list of certificates. For instance:

-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
MIIEKzCCAxOgAwIBAgIRANTET4LIkxdH6P+CFIiHvTowDQYJKoZIhvcNAQELBQAw
... Intermediate Cert...
eWHV5OW1K53o/atv59sOiW5K3crjFhsBOd5Q+cJJnU+SWinPKtANXMht+EDvYY2w

... Root Cert...
d8q23djXZbVYiIfE9ebr4g3152BlVCHZ2GyPdjhIuLeH21VbT/dyEHHA
-----END CERTIFICATE-----

TLS12SignatureAlgorithms: Defines the allowed TLS 1.2 signature algorithms when SSLProvider is set to Internal.

This configuration setting specifies the allowed server certificate signature algorithms when SSLProvider is set to Internal and SSLEnabledProtocols is set to allow TLS 1.2.

When specified the class will verify that the server certificate signature algorithm is among the values specified in this configuration setting. If the server certificate signature algorithm is unsupported, the class fails with an error.

The format of this value is a comma-separated list of hash-signature combinations. For instance: component.SSLProvider = TCPClientSSLProviders.sslpInternal; component.Config("SSLEnabledProtocols=3072"); //TLS 1.2 component.Config("TLS12SignatureAlgorithms=sha256-rsa,sha256-dsa,sha1-rsa,sha1-dsa"); The default value for this configuration setting is sha512-ecdsa,sha512-rsa,sha512-dsa,sha384-ecdsa,sha384-rsa,sha384-dsa,sha256-ecdsa,sha256-rsa,sha256-dsa,sha224-ecdsa,sha224-rsa,sha224-dsa,sha1-ecdsa,sha1-rsa,sha1-dsa.

To not restrict the server's certificate signature algorithm, specify an empty string as the value for this configuration setting, which will cause the signature_algorithms TLS 1.2 extension to not be sent.

TLS12SupportedGroups: The supported groups for ECC.

This configuration setting specifies a comma-separated list of named groups used in TLS 1.2 for ECC.

The default value is ecdhe_secp256r1,ecdhe_secp384r1,ecdhe_secp521r1.

When using TLS 1.2 and SSLProvider is set to Internal, the values refer to the supported groups for ECC. The following values are supported:

"ecdhe_secp256r1" (default)
"ecdhe_secp384r1" (default)
"ecdhe_secp521r1" (default)

TLS13KeyShareGroups: The groups for which to pregenerate key shares.

This configuration setting specifies a comma-separated list of named groups used in TLS 1.3 for key exchange. The groups specified here will have key share data pregenerated locally before establishing a connection. This can prevent an additional roundtrip during the handshake if the group is supported by the server.

The default value is set to balance common supported groups and the computational resources required to generate key shares. As a result, only some groups are included by default in this configuration setting.

Note: All supported groups can always be used during the handshake even if not listed here, but if a group is used that is not present in this list, it will incur an additional roundtrip and time to generate the key share for that group.

In most cases, this configuration setting does not need to be modified. This should be modified only if there is a specific reason to do so.

The default value is ecdhe_x25519,ecdhe_secp256r1,ecdhe_secp384r1,ffdhe_2048,ffdhe_3072

The values are ordered from most preferred to least preferred. The following values are supported:

"ecdhe_x25519" (default)
"ecdhe_x448"
"ecdhe_secp256r1" (default)
"ecdhe_secp384r1" (default)
"ecdhe_secp521r1"
"ffdhe_2048" (default)
"ffdhe_3072" (default)
"ffdhe_4096"
"ffdhe_6144"
"ffdhe_8192"

TLS13SignatureAlgorithms: The allowed certificate signature algorithms.

This configuration setting holds a comma-separated list of allowed signature algorithms. Possible values include the following:

"ed25519" (default)
"ed448" (default)
"ecdsa_secp256r1_sha256" (default)
"ecdsa_secp384r1_sha384" (default)
"ecdsa_secp521r1_sha512" (default)
"rsa_pkcs1_sha256" (default)
"rsa_pkcs1_sha384" (default)
"rsa_pkcs1_sha512" (default)
"rsa_pss_sha256" (default)
"rsa_pss_sha384" (default)
"rsa_pss_sha512" (default)

The default value is rsa_pss_sha256,rsa_pss_sha384,rsa_pss_sha512,rsa_pkcs1_sha256,rsa_pkcs1_sha384,rsa_pkcs1_sha512,ecdsa_secp256r1_sha256,ecdsa_secp384r1_sha384,ecdsa_secp521r1_sha512,ed25519,ed448. This configuration setting is applicable only when SSLEnabledProtocols includes TLS 1.3.

LicenseInfo: Information about the current license.

When queried, this setting will return a string containing information about the license this instance of a class is using. It will return the following information:

Product: The product the license is for.
Product Key: The key the license was generated from.
License Source: Where the license was found (e.g., RuntimeLicense, License File).
License Type: The type of license installed (e.g., Royalty Free, Single Server).
Last Valid Build: The last valid build number for which the license will work.

MaskSensitiveData: Whether sensitive data is masked in log messages.

In certain circumstances it may be beneficial to mask sensitive data, like passwords, in log messages. Set this to true to mask sensitive data. The default is true.

This setting only works on these classes: AS3Receiver, AS3Sender, Atom, Client(3DS), FTP, FTPServer, IMAP, OFTPClient, SSHClient, SCP, Server(3DS), Sexec, SFTP, SFTPServer, SSHServer, TCPClient, TCPServer.

ProcessIdleEvents: Whether the class uses its internal event loop to process events when the main thread is idle.

If set to False, the class will not fire internal idle events. Set this to False to use the class in a background thread on Mac OS. By default, this setting is True.

SelectWaitMillis: The length of time in milliseconds the class will wait when DoEvents is called if there are no events to process.

If there are no events to process when DoEvents is called, the class will wait for the amount of time specified here before returning. The default value is 20.

UseInternalSecurityAPI: Whether or not to use the system security libraries or an internal implementation.

When set to false, the class will use the system security libraries by default to perform cryptographic functions where applicable.

Setting this configuration setting to true tells the class to use the internal implementation instead of using the system security libraries.

On Windows, this setting is set to false by default. On Linux/macOS, this setting is set to true by default.

To use the system security libraries for Linux, OpenSSL support must be enabled. For more information on how to enable OpenSSL, please refer to the OpenSSL Notes section.

Trappable Errors (WSServer Class)

Error Handling (C++)

Call the GetLastErrorCode() method to obtain the last called method's result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. Known error codes are listed below. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message.
