Syntax

'Declaration
Public Function Receive ( _
    buffer As Byte(), _
    offset As Integer, _
    size As Integer, _
    socketFlags As SocketFlags _
) As Integer

public int Receive(
    byte[] buffer,
    int offset,
    int size,
    SocketFlags socketFlags
)

public:
int Receive(
    array<unsigned char>^ buffer, 
    int offset, 
    int size, 
    SocketFlags socketFlags
)

member Receive : 
        buffer:byte[] * 
        offset:int * 
        size:int * 
        socketFlags:SocketFlags -> int 

public function Receive(
    buffer : byte[], 
    offset : int, 
    size : int, 
    socketFlags : SocketFlags
) : int

Parameters

  • buffer
    Type: array<System. . :: . .Byte> [] () [] []
    An array of type Byte that is the storage location for received data.

Return Value

Type: System. . :: . .Int32
The number of bytes received.
