Remarks

Specify a linger-on-close timeout. This option disables/enables immediate return from a <B>close()</B> of a TCP Socket. Enabling this option with a non-zero Integer timeout means that a <B>close()</B> will block pending the transmission and acknowledgement of all data written to the peer, at which point the socket is closed gracefully. Upon reaching the linger timeout, the socket is closed forcefully, with a TCP RST. Enabling the option with a timeout of zero does a forceful close immediately. If the specified timeout value exceeds 65,535 it will be reduced to 65,535.

Valid only for TCP: SocketImpl
