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

Parameters

buffer
Byte[]

An array of type Byte that is the storage location for the received data.

offset
Int32

The position in the buffer parameter to store the received data.

size
Int32

The number of bytes to receive.

socketFlags
SocketFlags

A bitwise combination of the SocketFlags values.

errorCode
SocketError

A SocketError object that stores the socket error.

Returns

The number of bytes received.

Exceptions

buffer is null.

offset is less than 0.

-or-

offset is greater than the length of buffer.

-or-

size is less than 0.

-or-

size is greater than the length of buffer minus the value of the offset parameter.

The Socket has been closed.

A caller in the call stack does not have the required permissions.

Remarks

The Receive method reads data into the buffer parameter and returns the number of bytes successfully read. You can call Receive from both connection-oriented and connectionless sockets.

If you are using a connection-oriented protocol, you must either call Connect to establish a remote host connection, or Accept to accept an incoming connection prior to calling Receive. The Receive method will only read data that arrives from the remote host established in the Connect or Accept method. If you are using a connectionless protocol, you can also use the ReceiveFrom method. ReceiveFrom will allow you to receive data arriving from any host.

If no data is available for reading, the Receive method will block until data is available, unless a time-out value was set by using Socket.ReceiveTimeout. If the time-out value was exceeded, the Receive call will throw a SocketException. If you are in non-blocking mode, and there is no data available in the protocol stack buffer, the Receive method will complete immediately and throw a SocketException. An error occurred when attempting to access the socket. See Remarks below. You can use the Available property to determine if data is available for reading. When Available is non-zero, retry the receive operation.

If you are using a connection-oriented Socket, the Receive method will read as much data as is available, up to the number of bytes specified by the size parameter. If the remote host shuts down the Socket connection with the Shutdown method, and all available data has been received, the Receive method will complete immediately and return zero bytes.

If you are using a connectionless Socket, Receive will read the first queued datagram from the destination address you specify in the Connect method. If the datagram you receive is larger than the size of the buffer parameter, buffer gets filled with the first part of the message, the excess data is lost and a SocketException is thrown.

Parameters

buffer
Span<Byte>

A span of bytes that is the storage location for the received data.

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.

Remarks

The Receive method reads data into the buffer parameter and returns the number of bytes successfully read. You can call Receive from both connection-oriented and connectionless sockets.

This overload only requires you to provide a receive buffer. The buffer offset defaults to 0, the size defaults to the length of the buffer parameter, and the SocketFlags value defaults to None.

If the datagram you receive is larger than the size of the buffer parameter, buffer gets filled with the first part of the message, the excess data is lost and a SocketException is thrown.

Note

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.

End Function 'SendReceiveTest2

Remarks

The Receive method reads data into the buffer parameter and returns the number of bytes successfully read. You can call Receive from both connection-oriented and connectionless sockets.

This overload only requires you to provide a receive buffer and the necessary SocketFlags. The buffer offset defaults to 0, and the size defaults to the length of the byte parameter.

If you are using a connection-oriented protocol, you must either call Connect to establish a remote host connection, or Accept to accept an incoming connection prior to calling Receive. The Receive method will only read data that arrives from the remote host established in the Connect or Accept method. If you are using a connectionless protocol, you can also use the ReceiveFrom method. ReceiveFrom will allow you to receive data arriving from any host.

If no data is available for reading, the Receive method will block until data is available. If you are in non-blocking mode, and there is no data available in the protocol stack buffer, the Receive method will complete immediately and throw a SocketException. You can use the Available property to determine if data is available for reading. When Available is non-zero, retry your receive operation.

If you are using a connection-oriented Socket, the Receive method will read as much data as is available up to the size of the buffer. If the remote host shuts down the Socket connection with the Shutdown method, and all available data has been received, the Receive method will complete immediately and return zero bytes.

If you are using a connectionless Socket, Receive will read the first enqueued datagram from the destination address you specify in the Connect method. If the datagram you receive is larger than the size of the buffer parameter, buffer gets filled with the first part of the message, the excess data is lost and a SocketException is thrown.

Note

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.

Receives data from a bound Socket into a receive buffer.

public:
 int Receive(Span<System::Byte> buffer);
public int Receive (Span<byte> buffer);
member this.Receive : Span<byte> -> int
Public Function Receive (buffer As Span(Of Byte)) As Integer

Parameters

buffer
Span<Byte>

A span of bytes that is the storage location for the received data.

Returns

The number of bytes received.

Exceptions

An error occurred when attempting to access the socket.

The Socket has been closed.

A caller in the call stack does not have the required permissions.

Remarks

The Receive method reads data into the buffer parameter and returns the number of bytes successfully read. You can call Receive from both connection-oriented and connectionless sockets.

This overload only requires you to provide a receive buffer. The buffer offset defaults to 0, the size defaults to the length of the buffer parameter, and the SocketFlags value defaults to None.

If you're using a connection-oriented protocol, you must either call Connect to establish a remote host connection, or Accept to accept an incoming connection before calling Receive. The Receive method will only read data that arrives from the remote host established in the Connect or Accept method. If you're using a connectionless protocol, you can also use the ReceiveFrom method. ReceiveFrom will allow you to receive data arriving from any host.

If no data is available for reading, the Receive method will block until data is available, unless a time-out value was set by using Socket.ReceiveTimeout. When the time-out value is exceeded, the Receive call will throw a SocketException. If you're in non-blocking mode, and there's no data available in the protocol stack buffer, the Receive method will complete immediately and throw a SocketException. You can use the Available property to determine if data is available for reading. When Available is non-zero, retry the receive operation.
