|
| Recycle(NetIncomingMessage) |
Recycles a NetIncomingMessage instance for reuse; taking pressure off the garbage collector
|
| Recycle(IEnumerableNetIncomingMessage) |
Recycles a list of NetIncomingMessage instances for reuse; taking pressure off the garbage collector
|
| RegisterReceivedCallback |
Call this to register a callback for when a new message arrives
|
| SendDiscoveryResponse |
Send a discovery response message
|
| SendMessage(NetOutgoingMessage, NetConnection, NetDeliveryMethod) |
Send a message to a specific connection
|
| SendMessage(NetOutgoingMessage, NetConnection, NetDeliveryMethod, Int32) |
Send a message to a specific connection
|
| SendMessage(NetOutgoingMessage, IListNetConnection, NetDeliveryMethod, Int32) |
Send a message to a list of connections
|
| SendUnconnectedMessage(NetOutgoingMessage, IListIPEndPoint) |
Send a message to an unconnected host
|
| SendUnconnectedMessage(NetOutgoingMessage, IPEndPoint) |
Send a message to an unconnected host
|
| SendUnconnectedMessage(NetOutgoingMessage, String, Int32) |
Send a message to an unconnected host
|
| SendUnconnectedToSelf |
Send a message to this exact same netpeer (loopback)
|
| Shutdown |
Disconnects all active connections and closes the socket
|
| Start |
Binds to socket and spawns the networking thread
|
| ToString | Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object.) |
