Part of twisted.internet.interfaces View Source View In Hierarchy
Known implementations: twisted.internet.unix._SendmsgMixin
| Method | sendFileDescriptor | Send a duplicate of this (file, socket, pipe, etc) descriptor to the other end of this connection. |
Inherited from ITransport:
| Method | write | Write some data to the physical connection, in sequence, in a non-blocking fashion. |
| Method | writeSequence | Write a list of strings to the physical connection. |
| Method | loseConnection | Close my connection, after writing all pending data. |
| Method | getPeer | Get the remote address of this connection. |
| Method | getHost | Similar to getPeer, but returns an address describing this side of the connection. |
The send is non-blocking and will be queued if it cannot be performed
immediately. The send will be processed in order with respect to other
sendFileDescriptor calls on this transport, but not
necessarily with respect to write calls on this transport.
The send can only be processed if there are also bytes in the normal
connection-oriented send buffer (ie, you must call write at
least as many times as you call sendFileDescriptor).
| Parameters | descriptor | An int giving a valid file descriptor in this process. Note
that a file descriptor may actually refer to a socket, a pipe, or
anything else POSIX tries to treat in the same way as a file. |
| Returns | None | |
