Syntax
property DataFormat: TipeDataFormats read get_DataFormat write set_DataFormat;
TipeDataFormats = ( dfAutomatic, dfText, dfBinary, dfPing, dfPong );
Default Value
dfAutomatic
Remarks
When data is sent over an established connection it is usually considered as text or binary data. Text data is UTF-8 encoded. Binary data has no encoding associated with it.
Possible values are:
| 0 (dfAutomatic - default) | The component will attempt to automatically determine the correct data format. This is suitable for most cases. |
| 1 (dfText) | The component will UTF-8 encode the specified data before sending. Data that has already been UTF-8 encoded may also be supplied. |
| 2 (dfBinary) | The component will send the data exactly as it is provided. |
| 9 (dfPing) | The component will send the ping with data exactly as it is provided. |
| 10 (dfPong) | The component will send the pong with data exactly as it is provided. |
