Uhm, guys I really appreciate that I can use IPv6 but:
Yesterday I spent some time trying to open a socket given that I know
the IP address and the port. The lack of documentation or suggested
types sure wasn't helpful and I wished Pharo was statically typed so
that I at least knew what I had to pass in.
That's what I came up with:
hostIP := (SocketAddressInformation forHost: anIpString service: ''
flags: 0
addressFamily: SocketAddressInformation addressFamilyINET4
socketType: SocketAddressInformation socketTypeStream
protocol: SocketAddressInformation protocolTCP) first socketAddress.
socket := Socket new.
socket connectTo: hostIP port: portNumber.
There's gotta be a better way to do this.
The whole API with arrays where you have to know the index, ByteArray
objects, integer flags and so forth seems like a blast from the past.
Cheers
Philippe
