data_to_send Property

A string of data to be sent to the remote host.

Syntax

def set_data_to_send(value: bytes) -> None: ...

data_to_send = property(None, set_data_to_send)

Default Value

""

Remarks

Assigning a string to this property makes the class send the string to the remote host. The send method provides similar functionality.

When this property is set the class will use the value specified in data_format to determine the encoding options.

If the timeout property is set to 0 the component 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, data_to_send fails with error 10035: "[10035] Operation would block" (WSAEWOULDBLOCK). You can check this error, and then try to send the data again. The bytes_sent property shows how many bytes were sent (if any). If 0 bytes were sent, then you can wait for the on_ready_to_send event before attempting to send data again. (However, please note that on_ready_to_send is not fired when part of the data is successfully sent).

This property is write-only.
