Socket.cs

Sends data to a connected Socket using the specified SocketFlags.

public:
 int Send(ReadOnlySpan<System::Byte> buffer, System::Net::Sockets::SocketFlags socketFlags, [Runtime::InteropServices::Out] System::Net::Sockets::SocketError % errorCode);
public int Send (ReadOnlySpan<byte> buffer, System.Net.Sockets.SocketFlags socketFlags, out System.Net.Sockets.SocketError errorCode);
member this.Send : ReadOnlySpan<byte> * System.Net.Sockets.SocketFlags * SocketError -> int
Public Function Send (buffer As ReadOnlySpan(Of Byte), socketFlags As SocketFlags, ByRef errorCode As SocketError) As Integer

Parameters

buffer
ReadOnlySpan<Byte>

A span of bytes that contains the data to be sent.

socketFlags
SocketFlags

A bitwise combination of the enumeration values that specifies send and receive behaviors.

errorCode
SocketError

When this method returns, contains one of the enumeration values that defines error codes for the socket.

Returns

The number of bytes sent to the Socket.

Exceptions

An error occurred when attempting to access the socket.

The Socket has been closed.

Remarks

Send synchronously sends data to the remote host specified in the Connect or Accept method and returns the number of bytes successfully sent. Send can be used for both connection-oriented and connectionless protocols.

This overload requires a buffer that contains the data you want to send. The SocketFlags value defaults to 0, the buffer offset defaults to 0, and the number of bytes to send defaults to the size of the buffer.

If you're using a connectionless protocol, you must call Connect before calling this method, or Send will throw a SocketException. If you're using a connection-oriented protocol, you must either use Connect to establish a remote host connection, or use Accept to accept an incoming connection.

If you're using a connectionless protocol and plan to send data to several different hosts, you should use the SendTo method. If you don't use the SendTo method, you'll have to call Connect before each call to Send. You can use SendTo even after you've established a default remote host with Connect. You can also change the default remote host before calling Send by making another call to Connect.

If you're using a connection-oriented protocol, Send will block until all of the bytes in the buffer are sent, unless a time-out was set by using Socket.SendTimeout. If the time-out value was exceeded, the Send call will throw a SocketException. In nonblocking mode, Send may complete successfully even if it sends less than the number of bytes in the buffer. It is your application's responsibility to keep track of the number of bytes sent and to retry the operation until the application sends the bytes in the buffer. There's also no guarantee that the data you send will appear on the network immediately. To increase network efficiency, the underlying system may delay transmission until a significant amount of outgoing data is collected. A successful completion of the Send method means that the underlying system has had room to buffer your data for a network send.

Note

If you receive a SocketException, use the SocketException.ErrorCode property to obtain the specific error code. After you've obtained this code, refer to the Windows Sockets version 2 API error code documentation for a detailed description of the error.

This member outputs trace information when you enable network tracing in your application. For more information, see Network Tracing in .NET Framework.

Important

The successful completion of a send does not indicate that the data was successfully delivered. If no buffer space is available within the transport system to hold the data to be transmitted, send will block unless the socket has been placed in nonblocking mode.

Remarks

Send synchronously sends data to the remote host specified in the Connect or Accept method and returns the number of bytes successfully sent. Send can be used for both connection-oriented and connectionless protocols.

In this overload, if you specify the DontRoute flag as the socketflags parameter, the data you are sending will not be routed.

If you are using a connectionless protocol, you must call Connect before calling this method or Send will throw a SocketException. If you are using a connection-oriented protocol, you must either use Connect to establish a remote host connection, or use Accept to accept an incoming connection.

If you are using a connectionless protocol and plan to send data to several different hosts, you should use SendTo. If you do not use SendTo, you will have to call Connect before each call to Send. It is okay to use SendTo even after you have established a default remote host with Connect. You can also change the default remote host prior to calling Send by making another call to Connect.

You must also be sure that the size does not exceed the maximum packet size of the underlying service provider. If it does, the datagram will not be sent and Send will throw a SocketException.

If you are using a connection-oriented protocol, Send will block until the requested number of bytes are sent, unless a time-out was set by using Socket.SendTimeout. If the time-out value was exceeded, the Send call will throw a SocketException. In nonblocking mode, Send may complete successfully even if it sends less than the number of bytes you request. It is your application's responsibility to keep track of the number of bytes sent and to retry the operation until the application sends the requested number of bytes.

Remarks

Send synchronously sends data to the remote host established in the Connect or Accept method and returns the number of bytes successfully sent. Send can be used for both connection-oriented and connectionless protocols.

This overload requires a buffer that contains the data you want to send, the number of bytes you want to send, and a bitwise combination of any SocketFlags. If you specify the DontRoute flag as the socketflags parameter, the data you're sending won't be routed.

If you're using a connectionless protocol, you must call Connect before calling this method, or Send will throw a SocketException. If you're using a connection-oriented protocol, you must either use Connect to establish a remote host connection, or use Accept to accept an incoming connection.

If you're using a connectionless protocol and plan to send data to several different hosts, you should use the SendTo method. If you don'tuse the SendTo method, you'll have to call the Connect method before each call to the Send method. You can use SendTo even after you've established a default remote host with Connect. You can also change the default remote host before calling Send by making another call to Connect.

With a connection-oriented protocol, Send will block until the requested number of bytes are sent, unless a time-out was set by using Socket.SendTimeout. If the time-out value was exceeded, the Send call will throw a SocketException. In nonblocking mode, Send may complete successfully even if it sends less than the number of bytes you request. It is your application's responsibility to keep track of the number of bytes sent and to retry the operation until the application sends the requested number of bytes. There is also no guarantee that the data you send will appear on the network immediately. To increase network efficiency, the underlying system may delay transmission until a significant amount of outgoing data is collected. A successful completion of the Send method means that the underlying system has had room to buffer your data for a network send.

Note

You must ensure that the size does not exceed the maximum packet size of the underlying service provider. If it does, the datagram won't be sent and Send will throw a SocketException. If you receive a SocketException, use the SocketException.ErrorCode property to obtain the specific error code. After you have obtained this code, refer to the Windows Sockets version 2 API error code documentation for a detailed description of the error.

This member outputs trace information when you enable network tracing in your application. For more information, see Network Tracing in .NET Framework.

Important

The successful completion of a send does not indicate that the data was successfully delivered. If no buffer space is available within the transport system to hold the data to be transmitted, send will block unless the socket has been placed in nonblocking mode.

A list of ArraySegment<T>s of type Byte that contains the data to be sent.

Returns

The number of bytes sent to the Socket.

Exceptions

buffers is null.

buffers is empty.

An error occurred when attempting to access the socket. See remarks section below.

The Socket has been closed.

Remarks

Send can be used for both connection-oriented and connectionless protocols.

This overload requires at least one buffer that contains the data you want to send.

If you are using a connectionless protocol, you must call Connect before calling this method, or Send will throw a SocketException. If you are using a connection-oriented protocol, you must either use Connect to establish a remote host connection, or use Accept to accept an incoming connection.

If you are using a connectionless protocol and plan to send data to several different hosts, you should use the SendTo method. If you do not use the SendTo method, you will have to call Connect before each call to Send. You can use SendTo even after you have established a default remote host with Connect. You can also change the default remote host prior to calling Send by making another call to Connect.

If you are using a connection-oriented protocol, Send will block until all of the bytes in the buffer are sent, unless a time-out was set by using Socket.SendTimeout. If the time-out value was exceeded, the Send call will throw a SocketException. In nonblocking mode, Send may complete successfully even if it sends less than the number of bytes in the buffer. It is your application's responsibility to keep track of the number of bytes sent and to retry the operation until the application sends the bytes in the buffer.
