AmazonSQS Class
Properties Methods Events Config Settings Errors
The AmazonSQS Class provides an easy interface to Amazon's Simple Queue Service (SQS).
Syntax
ipworksmq.AmazonSQS
Remarks
The AmazonSQS Class allows you to access Amazon's Simple Queue Service (SQS). SQS allows you to create globally accessible queues on Amazon's servers. These queues can be used by developers to transfer data between distributed application components, without losing messages or requiring each component to always be available. A brief synopsis follows but please refer to Amazon SQS documentation for details.
You will first need to sign up for the SQS service and obtain the AccessKey and SecretKey from Amazon. Then you can start creating queues in your account using CreateQueue. You can then start adding message's to the queue using CreateMessage and retrieve the same using ListMessages.
There are other methods such as ListQueues, DeleteQueue, DeleteMessage etc. that further enable you to manage your SQS queues.
SmoothMQ is also supported. For compatibility with SmoothMQ, APIRequestFormat must be set to 2. Additionally, it is advisable to set ResolveQueueId to true.

Please refer to the SQSAttribute type for a complete list of fields.Firewall Property (AmazonSQS Class)
A set of properties related to firewall access.
Syntax
public Firewall getFirewall(); public void setFirewall(Firewall firewall);
Remarks
This is a Firewall-type property, which contains fields describing the firewall through which the class will attempt to connect.
Please refer to the Firewall type for a complete list of fields.LocalHost Property (AmazonSQS Class)
The name of the local host or user-assigned IP interface through which connections are initiated or accepted.
Syntax
public String getLocalHost(); public void setLocalHost(String localHost);
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.
MaxMessages Property (AmazonSQS Class)
The maximum number of messages retrieved from the queue.
Syntax
public int getMaxMessages(); public void setMaxMessages(int maxMessages);
Default Value
1
Remarks
The maximum number of messages retrieved by ListMessages. This is not the number of messages that will be returned, but just the maximum number that will be returned.
Amazon's SQS service dictates that this parameter should be between 1 to 10, all other values are illegal.
Messages Property (AmazonSQS Class)
The messages retrieved as a result of calling ListMessages .
Syntax
public SqsMessageList getMessages();
Remarks
This property will be populated with a list of messages after a call to ListMessages.
This property is read-only and not available at design time.
Please refer to the SqsMessage type for a complete list of fields.OtherHeaders Property (AmazonSQS Class)
Other headers as determined by the user (optional).
Syntax
public String getOtherHeaders(); public void setOtherHeaders(String otherHeaders);
Default Value
""
Remarks
This property can be set to a string of headers to be appended to the HTTP request headers created from other properties like ContentType and From.
The headers must follow the format Header: Value as described in the HTTP specifications. Header lines should be separated by CRLF ("\r\n") .
Use this property with caution. If this property contains invalid headers, HTTP requests may fail.
This property is useful for extending the functionality of the class beyond what is provided.
This property is not available at design time.
Proxy Property (AmazonSQS Class)
A set of properties related to proxy access.
Syntax
public Proxy getProxy(); public void setProxy(Proxy proxy);

This property is not available at design time.
SecretKey Property (AmazonSQS Class)
The Secret Access Key for the Amazon Web Services account.
Syntax
public String getSecretKey(); public void setSecretKey(String secretKey);
Default Value
""
Remarks
This property describes the secret key to the Amazon account. It should not be shared with others. The SecretKey is used along with the AccessKey in the authentication process with Amazon servers.
SSLAcceptServerCert Property (AmazonSQS Class)
Instructs the class to unconditionally accept the server certificate that matches the supplied certificate.
Syntax
public Certificate getSSLAcceptServerCert(); public void setSSLAcceptServerCert(Certificate SSLAcceptServerCert);
Remarks
If it finds any issues with the certificate presented by the server, the class will normally terminate the connection with an error.
You may override this behavior by supplying a value for SSLAcceptServerCert. If the certificate supplied in SSLAcceptServerCert is the same as the certificate presented by the server, then the server certificate is accepted unconditionally, and the connection will continue normally.
Note: This functionality is provided only for cases in which you otherwise know that you are communicating with the right server. If used improperly, this property may create a security breach. Use it at your own risk.
Please refer to the Certificate type for a complete list of fields.SSLCert Property (AmazonSQS Class)

The Secure Sockets Layer/Transport Layer Security (SSL/TLS) implementation to use.
Syntax
public int getSSLProvider(); public void setSSLProvider(int SSLProvider); Enumerated values: public final static int sslpAutomatic = 0; public final static int sslpPlatform = 1; public final static int sslpInternal = 2;
Default Value
0
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. |
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, the platform implementation is used by default. When TLS 1.3 is enabled via SSLEnabledProtocols, the internal implementation is used.
SSLServerCert Property (AmazonSQS Class)
The server certificate for the last established connection.
Syntax
public Certificate getSSLServerCert();
Remarks
This property contains the server certificate for the last established connection.
SSLServerCert is reset every time a new connection is attempted.
This property is read-only.
Please refer to the Certificate type for a complete list of fields.StatusLine Property (AmazonSQS Class)
This property is the first line of the last server response.
Syntax
public String getStatusLine();
Default Value
""
Remarks
This property contains the first line of the last server response. This value can be used for diagnostic purposes. If an HTTP error is returned when calling a method of the class, the error string is the same as the StatusLine property.
The HTTP protocol specifies the structure of the StatusLine as follows: [HTTP version] [Result Code] [Description].
This property is read-only and not available at design time.
Timeout Property (AmazonSQS Class)
The timeout for the class.
Syntax
public int getTimeout(); public void setTimeout(int timeout);
Default Value
60
Remarks
If the Timeout property is set to 0, all operations will run uninterrupted until successful completion or an error condition is encountered.
If Timeout is set to a positive value, the class will wait for the operation to complete before returning control.
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 throws an exception.
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 property is 60 seconds.
UseSSL Property (AmazonSQS Class)
Use SSL when accessing the service.
Syntax
public boolean isUseSSL(); public void setUseSSL(boolean useSSL);
Default Value
True
Remarks
Use this property to specify whether the class should use SSL when connecting to the service.
This property is not available at design time.
VisibilityTimeout Property (AmazonSQS Class)
The visibility duration for messages in the queue.
Syntax
public int getVisibilityTimeout(); public void setVisibilityTimeout(int visibilityTimeout);
Default Value
-1
Remarks
Visibility timeout is used to guard against multiple delivery. Successive calls to ListMessages on a queue will not return any message again until the timeout expires, after which the message may reappear unless deleted with DeleteMessage.
A default visibility timeout is configured when a queue is created using CreateQueue, it can also be altered when a message is added using CreateMessage or when they are retrieved using ListMessages.
The default value for VisibilityTimeout is -1, which notifies the component that you would like to use the default behavior for the current Queue.
Note: Unlike messages received from standard queues, messages received from FIFO queues can only be deleted within their VisibilityTimeout. Attempting to call DeleteMessage for a message received from a FIFO queue after its VisibilityTimeout has expired will cause the server to return an error. Keep this in mind when picking a VisibilityTimeout value to create a FIFO queue and/or retrieve messages with.
AddPermission Method (AmazonSQS Class)
Adds a permission to a queue for a specific account, which allows for sharing access to the queue.
Syntax
public String addPermission(String queueId, String userLabel, String amazonAccount, String permissionName);
Remarks
This method adds a permission to the queue specified by QueueId for the user account specified by AmazonAccount. UserLabel is the unique identification of the permission you're granting, and is used when deleting the permission via the RemovePermission method. The current list of values you may pass in the PermissionName parameter are listed below:
- SendMessage
- ReceiveMessage
- DeleteMessage
- ChangeMessageVisibility
- GetQueueAttributes
Note that when you create a queue, you have full control access rights for the queue. Only you (as owner of the queue) can grant or deny permissions to the queue.
AddPermission writes an SQS-generated policy. If you want to write your own policy, use SetQueueAttribute to upload your policy.
This method returns the RequestId contained in the Amazon response.
ChangeMessageVisibility Method (AmazonSQS Class)
Changes the visibility timeout of a message.
Syntax
public String changeMessageVisibility(String queueId, String receiptHandle, int visiblityTimeout);
Remarks
Changes the visibility of the message specified by ReceiptHandle in the queue specified by QueueId. The maximum allowed timeout value you can set the value to is 12 hours. This means you can't extend the timeout of a message in an existing queue to more than a total visibility timeout of 12 hours.
This method returns the RequestId contained in the Amazon response.
Config Method (AmazonSQS Class)
Sets or retrieves a configuration setting.
Syntax
public String config(String configurationString);
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.
CreateMessage Method (AmazonSQS Class)
Adds a message to a queue.
Syntax
public String createMessage(String queueId, String message);
Remarks
Adds a message to the queue specified. If VisibilityTimeout is specified it is updated for all the messages in the queue.
CreateMessage returns a message id assigned to the message that is added to a queue. This can then be used to ListMessages or DeleteMessage.
Note: When adding a message to a FIFO queue, the MessageGroupId configuration setting must be populated before calling this method.
CreateQueue Method (AmazonSQS Class)
Creates an SQS queue.
Syntax
public String createQueue(String queueName);
Remarks
A queue with the specified name is created.
CreateQueue returns a queue id assigned to the queue. This can then be used to CreateMessage or DeleteQueue.
If the QueueName ends with .fifo, the queue will be created as a FIFO queue. Alternatively, if the UseFIFOQueues configuration setting is enabled, the class will always attempt to create FIFO queues, appending .fifo to the given QueueName if necessary (all FIFO queues' names must have that suffix).
DeleteMessage Method (AmazonSQS Class)
Deletes the message specified.
Syntax
public void deleteMessage(String queueId, String receiptHandle);
Remarks
Deletes the message specified by ReceiptHandle from the queue specified by QueueId.
Note: Unlike messages received from standard queues, messages received from FIFO queues can only be deleted within their VisibilityTimeout. Attempting to call DeleteMessage for a message received from a FIFO queue after its VisibilityTimeout has expired will cause the server to return an error.
DeleteQueue Method (AmazonSQS Class)
Deletes a queue.
Syntax
public void deleteQueue(String queueId);
Remarks
Deletes the queue specified by QueueId.
DoEvents Method (AmazonSQS Class)
This method processes events from the internal message queue.
Syntax
public void 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.
GetQueueAttributes Method (AmazonSQS Class)
Returns all attributes of a queue.
Syntax
public String getQueueAttributes(String queueId);
Remarks
This method retrieves all of the attributes of the queue specified by QueueId, and stores them in the Attributes collection. Queues currently have five attributes that may be returned:
- ApproximateNumberOfMessages
- VisibilityTimeout (for more information, see Visibility Timeout)
- CreatedTimestamp
- LastModifiedTimestamp
- Policy
This method returns the RequestId contained in the Amazon response.
GetXValue Method (AmazonSQS Class)
Retrieves a valid XPath expression from the HTTP response after calling SendCustomRequest .
Syntax
public String getXValue(String XPath);
Remarks
This method allows a user to retrieve a valid XPath expression from the HTTP response after calling SendCustomRequest.
Interrupt Method (AmazonSQS Class)
This method interrupts the current method.
Syntax
public void interrupt();
Remarks
If there is no method in progress, Interrupt simply returns, doing nothing.
ListMessages Method (AmazonSQS Class)
Gets messages from the queue.
Syntax
public void listMessages(String queueId);
Remarks
This method retrieves messages from the queue specified by QueueId, and fires a Message event for each message it receives. The messages may also be accessed using the property Messages.
If VisibilityTimeout greater than -1 it is applied to the messages, otherwise the default timeout of the queue used. Only one message is retrieved by default; this behavior may be modified by changing MaxMessages.
Note: Unlike messages received from standard queues, messages received from FIFO queues can only be deleted within their VisibilityTimeout. Attempting to call DeleteMessage for a message received from a FIFO queue after its VisibilityTimeout has expired will cause the server to return an error.
ListQueues Method (AmazonSQS Class)
Lists the queues under the current account.
Syntax
public void listQueues();
Remarks
This method will fire a Queue event for each queue available for the Amazon SQS account specified by AccessKey. The listing may be filtered using QueuePrefix.
RemovePermission Method (AmazonSQS Class)
The RemovePermission action revokes any permissions in the queue policy that matches the UserLabel parameter.
Syntax
public String removePermission(String queueId, String userLabel);
Remarks
Note that only the owner of the queue may revoke previously added permissions.
This method returns the RequestId contained in the Amazon response.
Reset Method (AmazonSQS Class)
Resets request-related properties.
Syntax
public void reset();
Remarks
Calling this method will reset the component to the original state.
ResetHeaders Method (AmazonSQS Class)
Resets all HTTP headers, cookies, and LocalFile.
Syntax
public void resetHeaders();
Remarks
Resets all the HTTP headers as well as LocalFile to "" (empty string).
Call this method before creating a new request, so that headers and query parameters from the previous request are not carried over to the next one.
SendCustomRequest Method (AmazonSQS Class)
Allows the sending of a custom request to an Amazon web service.
Syntax
public String sendCustomRequest(String url, String requestData, String otherHeaders);
Remarks
Allows the sending of a custom request to the Amazon web service. The URL parameter describes the endpoint that is being targeted. The RequestData is set to any data required for the request. The OtherHeaders parameter is used to set any additional headers that should be set for the request.
SetQueueAttribute Method (AmazonSQS Class)
Sets an attribute of a queue.
Syntax
public String setQueueAttribute(String queueId, String attributeName, String attributeValue);
Remarks
This method sets attributes of the queue specified by QueueId. When you change a queue's attributes, the change can take up to 60 seconds to propagate throughout the SQS system.
This method returns the RequestId contained in the Amazon response.
Connected Event (AmazonSQS Class)
Fired immediately after a connection completes (or fails).
Syntax
public class DefaultAmazonSQSEventListener implements AmazonSQSEventListener { ... public void connected(AmazonSQSConnectedEvent e) {} ... } public class AmazonSQSConnectedEvent { public int statusCode; public String description; }
Remarks

EndTransfer Event (AmazonSQS Class)
Fired when a document finishes transferring.
Syntax
public class DefaultAmazonSQSEventListener implements AmazonSQSEventListener { ... public void endTransfer(AmazonSQSEndTransferEvent e) {} ... } public class AmazonSQSEndTransferEvent { public int direction; }
Remarks
This event is fired first when the client finishes sending data to the server (in a POST or PUT request) and then when the document text finishes transferring from the server to the local host.
The Direction parameter shows whether the client (0) or the server (1) is sending the data.
Error Event (AmazonSQS Class)
Fired when information is available about errors during data delivery.
Syntax
public class DefaultAmazonSQSEventListener implements AmazonSQSEventListener { ... public void error(AmazonSQSErrorEvent e) {} ... } public class AmazonSQSErrorEvent { public int errorCode; public String description; }
Remarks

Config Settings (AmazonSQS 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.AmazonSQS Config Settings
0 (default) | Sends GET requests using AWS query protocol. |
1 | Sends POST requests using AWS query protocol. |
2 | Sends POST requests using AWS JSON protocol. |
Amazon defines each version as the date it was released. An example is: "2009-07-15".
Possible values are:
- 0 (string - default)
- 1 (number)
- 2 (binary)
Valid array indices are from 0 to MessageAttributeCount - 1.
Valid array indices are from 0 to MessageAttributeCount - 1.
Valid array indices are from 0 to MessageAttributeCount - 1.
- Messages sent with identical message bodies that Amazon SQS must treat as unique.
- Messages sent with identical content but different message attributes that Amazon SQS must treat as unique.
- Messages sent with different content (for example, retry counts included in the message body) that Amazon SQS must treat as duplicates.
When you purge a queue, the message deletion process takes up to 60 seconds. All messages sent to the queue before calling PurgeQueue will be deleted; messages sent to the queue while it is being purged may be deleted. While the queue is being purged, messages sent to the queue before PurgeQueue was called may be received, but will be deleted within the next minute.
The component will make an extra request invoking the AmazonSQS.GetQueueUrl method and use its response for the request that will require the Queue URL to be resolved.
sqs.Config("URL=https://myregion.custom-sqs-server.com");
sqs.ListMessages("MyQueue");
In order for the class to be able to auto-obtain authentication credentials, the EC2 instance must have an "instance profile" with an appropriate IAM role attached to it. Refer to the "Using an IAM Role to Grant Permissions to Applications Running on Amazon EC2 Instances" page in the Amazon IAM documentation for more information.
By default, this setting is empty. When populated with an IAM role name, the class will do the following before each request:
- Make a request against the EC2 instance to obtain temporary security credentials for the IAM role associated with the current instance profile.
- Parse the response, automatically populating the AccessKey and SecretKey properties.
- Execute the original request using the temporary security credentials that were acquired.
When enabled, the class will always append the .fifo suffix (if necessary) to the desired QueueName when CreateQueue is called. (Note that queue names can be no longer than 80 characters, including the .fifo suffix.)
HTTP Config Settings
When True, the class adds an Accept-Encoding header to the outgoing request. The value for this header can be controlled by the AcceptEncoding configuration setting. The default value for this header is "gzip, deflate".
The default value is True.
If set to True (default), the class will automatically use HTTP/1.1 if the server does not support HTTP/2. If set to False, the class throws an exception if the server does not support HTTP/2.
The default value is True.
This property is provided so that the HTTP class can be extended with other security schemes in addition to the authorization schemes already implemented by the class.
The AuthScheme property defines the authentication scheme used. In the case of HTTP Basic Authentication (default), every time User and Password are set, they are Base64 encoded, and the result is put in the Authorization property in the form "Basic [encoded-user-password]".
The default value is False.
If this property is set to 2 (Same Scheme), the new URL is retrieved automatically only if the URL Scheme is the same; otherwise, the class throws an exception.
Note: Following the HTTP specification, unless this option is set to 1 (Always), automatic redirects will be performed only for GET or HEAD requests. Other methods potentially could change the conditions of the initial request and create security vulnerabilities.
Furthermore, if either the new URL server or port are different from the existing one, User and Password are also reset to empty, unless this property is set to 1 (Always), in which case the same credentials are used to connect to the new server.
A Redirect event is fired for every URL the product is redirected to. In the case of automatic redirections, the Redirect event is a good place to set properties related to the new connection (e.g., new authentication parameters).
The default value is 0 (Never). In this case, redirects are never followed, and the class throws an exception instead.
Following are the valid options:
- 0 - Never
- 1 - Always
- 2 - Same Scheme
- "1.0"
- "1.1" (default)
- "2.0"
- "3.0"
When using HTTP/2 ("2.0"), additional restrictions apply. Please see the following notes for details.
HTTP/2 Notes
When using HTTP/2, a secure Secure Sockets Layer/Transport Layer Security (TLS/SSL) connection is required. Attempting to use a plaintext URL with HTTP/2 will result in an error.
If the server does not support HTTP/2, the class will automatically use HTTP/1.1 instead. This is done to provide compatibility without the need for any additional settings. To see which version was used, check NegotiatedHTTPVersion after calling a method. The AllowHTTPFallback setting controls whether this behavior is allowed (default) or disallowed.
HTTP/2 is supported on all platforms. The class will use the internal security implementation in all cases when connecting.
HTTP/3 Notes
HTTP/3 is supported only in .NET and Java.
When using HTTP/3, a secure (TLS/SSL) connection is required. Attempting to use a plaintext URL with HTTP/3 will result in an error.
The format of the date value for IfModifiedSince is detailed in the HTTP specs. For example:
Sat, 29 Oct 2017 19:43:31 GMT.
The default value for KeepAlive is false.
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 status details.
The value 2 (Verbose) logs additional information about the request and response.
The value 3 (Debug) logs the headers and body for both the request and response, as well as additional debug information (if any).
To save all items to the collection, set this configuration setting to -1. If no items are wanted, set this to 0, which will not save any items to the collection. The default for this configuration setting is -1, so all items will be included in the collection.
To save all items to the collection, set this configuration setting to -1. If no items are wanted, set this to 0, which will not save any items to the collection. The default for this configuration setting is -1, so all items will be included in the collection.
The headers must follow the format "header: value" as described in the HTTP specifications. Header lines should be separated by CRLF ("\r\n") .
Use this configuration setting with caution. If this configuration setting contains invalid headers, HTTP requests may fail.
This configuration setting is useful for extending the functionality of the class beyond what is provided.
.NET
Http http = new Http();
http.Config("TransferredRequest=on");
http.PostData = "body";
http.Post("http://someserver.com");
Console.WriteLine(http.Config("TransferredRequest"));
C++
HTTP http;
http.Config("TransferredRequest=on");
http.SetPostData("body", 5);
http.Post("http://someserver.com");
printf("%s\r\n", http.Config("TransferredRequest"));
Note: Some servers (such as the ASP.NET Development Server) may not support chunked encoding.
The default value is False and the hostname will always be used exactly as specified.
When True (default), the class will check for the existence of a Proxy auto-config URL, and if found, will determine the appropriate proxy to use.
Override the default with the name and version of your software.
TCPClient Config Settings
If the FirewallHost setting is set to a Domain Name, a DNS request is initiated. Upon successful termination of the request, the FirewallHost setting is set to the corresponding address. If the search is not successful, an error is returned.
Note: This setting is provided for use by classs that do not directly expose Firewall properties.
If this entry is set, the class acts as a server. RemoteHost and RemotePort are used to tell the SOCKS firewall in which address and port to listen to. The firewall rules may ignore RemoteHost, and it is recommended that RemoteHost be set to empty string in this case.
RemotePort is the port in which the firewall will listen to. If set to 0, the firewall will select a random port. The binding (address and port) is provided through the ConnectionStatus event.
The connection to the firewall is made by calling the Connect method.
Note: This setting is provided for use by classs that do not directly expose Firewall properties.
Note: This configuration setting is provided for use by classs that do not directly expose Firewall properties.
0 | No firewall (default setting). |
1 | Connect through a tunneling proxy. FirewallPort is set to 80. |
2 | Connect through a SOCKS4 Proxy. FirewallPort is set to 1080. |
3 | Connect through a SOCKS5 Proxy. FirewallPort is set to 1080. |
10 | Connect through a SOCKS4A Proxy. FirewallPort is set to 1080. |
Note: This setting is provided for use by classs that do not directly expose Firewall properties.
Note: This setting is provided for use by classs that do not directly expose Firewall properties.
Note: This value is not applicable in macOS.
In the case that Linger is True (default), two scenarios determine how long the connection will linger. In the first, if LingerTime is 0 (default), the system will attempt to send pending data for a connection until the default IP timeout expires.
In the second scenario, if LingerTime is a positive value, the system will attempt to send pending data until the specified LingerTime is reached. If this attempt fails, then the system will reset the connection.
The default behavior (which is also the default mode for stream sockets) might result in a long delay in closing the connection. Although the class returns control immediately, the system could hold system resources until all pending data are sent (even after your application closes).
Setting this property to False forces an immediate disconnection. If you know that the other side has received all the data you sent (e.g., by a client acknowledgment), setting this property to False might be the appropriate course of action.
In multihomed hosts (machines with more than one IP interface), setting LocalHost to the value of an interface will make the class initiate connections (or accept in the case of server classs) only through that interface.
If the class is connected, the LocalHost setting 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).
Setting this to 0 (default) enables the system to choose a port at random. The chosen port will be shown by LocalPort after the connection is established.
LocalPort cannot be changed once a connection is made. Any attempt to set this when a connection is active will generate an error.
This configuration setting is useful when trying to connect to services that require a trusted port on the client side. An example is the remote shell (rsh) service in UNIX systems.
If an EOL string is found in the input stream before MaxLineLength bytes are received, the DataIn event is fired with the EOL parameter set to True, and the buffer is reset.
If no EOL is found, and MaxLineLength bytes are accumulated in the buffer, the DataIn event is fired with the EOL parameter set to False, and the buffer is reset.
The minimum value for MaxLineLength is 256 bytes. The default value is 2048 bytes.

Note: This value is not applicable in Java.
By default, this configuration setting is set to False.
0 | IPv4 only |
1 | IPv6 only |
2 | IPv6 with IPv4 fallback |
SSL Config Settings
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.
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.

When set to 0 (default), the CRL check will not be performed by the class. When set to 1, it will attempt to perform the CRL check, but it will continue without an error if the server's certificate does not support CRL. When set to 2, it will perform the CRL check and will throw an error if CRL is not supported.
This configuration setting is supported only in the Java, C#, and C++ editions. In the C++ edition, it is supported only on Windows operating systems.
When set to 0 (default), the class will not perform an OCSP check. When set to 1, it will attempt to perform the OCSP check, but it will continue without an error if the server's certificate does not support OCSP. When set to 2, it will perform the OCSP check and will throw an error if OCSP is not supported.
This configuration setting is supported only in the Java, C#, and C++ editions. In the C++ edition, it is supported only on Windows operating systems.
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.
The value of this configuration setting is a newline-separated (CR/LF) list of certificates. For instance:

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.
Note: This value must be set after SSLProvider is set.
Example values:
obj.config("SSLEnabledCipherSuites=*");
obj.config("SSLEnabledCipherSuites=SSL_RSA_WITH_RC4_128_SHA");

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.
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.
This configuration setting is applicable only when SSLProvider is set to Internal.
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.
Note: When SSLProvider is set to Internal this value is automatically set to true. This is needed for proper validation when using the internal provider.
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.
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]");
Note: For server components (e.g., TCPServer), this is a per-connection configuration setting accessed by passing the ConnectionId. For example:

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 throws an exception.
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.
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)
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"
- "ed25519" (default)

- "ecdsa_secp521r1_sha512" (default)
- "rsa_pkcs1_sha256" (default)

- "rsa_pss_sha256" (default)
- "rsa_pss_sha384" (default)
- "rsa_pss_sha512" (default)
The default value is ecdhe_x25519,ecdhe_x448,ecdhe_secp256r1,ecdhe_secp384r1,ecdhe_secp521r1,ffdhe_2048,ffdhe_3072,ffdhe_4096,ffdhe_6144,ffdhe_8192

Note: This option is not valid for User Datagram Protocol (UDP) ports.
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 happens if you attempt to make it too large or too small.
