/*!
\class BSocket
\ingroup network
\brief BSocket is a class used to perform stream-based socket connections.

/*!
\fn BSocket::BSocket()
\brief Creates an uninitialized socket in disconnected and unbound state.
\since Haiku R1

/*!
\fn BSocket::BSocket(const BNetworkAddress& peer, bigtime_t timeout = B_INFINITE_TIMEOUT)
\brief Creates a socket to \a peer and tries to connect to that endpoint
until \a timeout is reached.
\param[in] peer A network address.
\param[in] timeout The timeout in microseconds or \c B_INFINITE_TIMEOUT.
This is used for subsequent reads and writes as well.

/*!
\fn BSocket::BSocket(const BSocket& other)
\brief Copy constructor.
The copied object accesses the same underlying socket.
\param[in] other The other BSocket object.
\since Haiku R1
*/
/*!
\fn virtual BSocket::~BSocket()
\brief Destructor.
Disconnects the socket.

\fn virtual status_t BSocket::Bind(const BNetworkAddress& peer, bool reuseAddr = true)
\brief Assigns a local address \a peer to this socket.
If \a reuseAddr is \c true, it should allow the reuse of the local address.
If the binding is successful, the object is left in a bound state.
\param[in] peer The local address to be bound to this socket object.
\param[in] reuseAddr Whether the reuse of local addresses should be allowed in non-zero requests.
\retval B_OK Binding was successful.
\retval EADDRINUSE The specified address is already in use and \a reuseAddr is false.
\retval EADDRNOTAVAIL The specified address is not available from the local machine.
\retval EAFNOSUPPORT The specified address is not of a family address accepted by the socket.

/*!
\fn virtual status_t BSocket::Accept(BAbstractSocket*& _socket)
\brief Accepts an incoming connection to this socket and initializes
\a _socket to that remote endpoint.
This method extracts the first connection from the pending incoming
connections' queue and fills \a _socket with the peer's information.
\retval B_OK The connection was accepted and the other object was
initialized with the peer's information.
\retval B_NO_MEMORY Not enough memory to allocate for the other socket object.
\retval -1 Failure to accept the incoming connection.

/*!
\fn virtual status_t BSocket::Connect(const BNetworkAddress& peer, bigtime_t timeout = B_INFINITE_TIMEOUT)
\brief Connects the socket to the given \a peer.
The socket is disconnected from any previous connections.
\param[in] peer The peer's address to connect to.
\param[in] timeout The timeout in microseconds or \c B_INFINITE_TIMEOUT.
This is used for subsequent reads and writes as well.
\returns B_OK if the connection was performed successfully or an error
code otherwise.

/*!
\fn virtual ssize_t BSocket::Read(void* buffer, size_t size)
\brief Receives from the socket's peer and stores it in \a buffer.
\param[out] buffer A buffer where the data should be stored.
\param[in] size The length in bytes of the buffer.
\returns The length of bytes received, or an error code.
\since Haiku R1

/*!
\fn virtual ssize_t BSocket::Write(const void* buffer, size_t size)
\brief Sends data from the socket to its peer.
\param[in] buffer The data to be sent.
\param[in] size The length in bytes of the data.
\returns The length of bytes sent, or an error code.
