socketlisten – listen (wait) for a connection on a socket

BEE Script:   socketlisten socketObj [backlog=integer];

 

BEE Tag:      <beesocketlisten socketObj [backlog=integer]>

 

The "socketlisten" command is usually used by a server process.  This command "registered" its interest to the system on connections made to the address and port specified in a previous "socketbind" command.  It is usually followed by a "socketaccept" command to wait for and accept the new connection given to the process by the system.

Parameters

socket (the socketObj) is the name of the socket to be suspended for "listening".

backlog is the maximum number of connections allowed to be queued before the process accept the first connection (see "socketaccept").  The default is 5.
