TROCustomIndyTCPServer

 

Standard component constructor

constructor Create(aOwner: TComponent)

Parameters:

• aOwner: Owner

---

Toggles whether the server ready to receive requests from clients. Depending on the server type, changing this property might open/close a network socket or otherwise toggle whether the server will process incoming requests.

property Active: Boolean read write

---

Copies the contents of another, similar object.

procedure Assign(Source: TPersistent)

Parameters:

• Source: Instance whose properties will be copied

---

Determines whether it is allowed to use IPv4 network addresses.

property BindV4: Boolean read write

---

Gets or sets the flag indicating whether the server should listen for IPv6 connections.

Setting this flag doesn't have any immediate effect. Its value is used only when the server is opened (either by setting the Active property to true).

property BindV6: Boolean read write

---

Validates the server properties.

procedure CheckProperties

---

Decrypt stream

procedure DecryptStream(const Source: TStream; const Dest: TStream)

Parameters:

• Source: Source
• Dest: Destination

---

Decrypt stream

procedure DecryptStream(const Stream: TStream)

Parameters:

• Stream: Stream

---

Holds the message that will be sent back to the client if it improperly "welcomes" the server.

property DefaultResponse: string read write

---

Controls whether data packets are sent individually or if small packets are held back to send as part of fewer larger data packets. Normally, you will want this disabled as it can have a significant effect on performance. The only time when its worth keeping the property enabled is when there are many small packets to be sent and you need to keep network bandwidth to a minimum.

See more at Nagle's algorithm

property DisableNagle: Boolean read write

---

Specifies how incoming requests will be processed and dispatched. Depending on the server type, one or multiple dispatchers can be configured to receive messages from the client. Each dispatcher consists of a Message and an optional Name. Also, each dispatcher can be individually enabled or disabled. Each server must have at least one dispatcher configured, in order to be able to process messages.

=Essential Sub-Properties=

• Message specifies the message format to be used for this dispatcher.
• Name specifies the name, or possibly the URL for the dispatcher.

In HTTP based servers (such as the TROIndyHTTPServer, the Name will be appended as folder to the server URL allowing the server to make multiple dispatchers available at different URLs.

function IsStreamEncrypted(Source: TStream): Boolean

---

Controls whether to use HTTP Keep-Alive to keep the connection alive between requests.
If enabled (true) , once a request is made and a connection is established, this connection is kept open and used for future requests.
If disabled, the connection is closed, and a new connection is created for future requests.
Since establishing a connection is - relatively speaking - a costly and resource intensive operation for the network, compared to sending small amounts of data, it is recommended to keep this option enabled for optimal performance, if requests to the server are done relatively frequently.
For Keep-Alive to work, the option must be supported and enabled on both client and server.

property KeepAlive: Boolean read write

---

Forwards notification messages to all owned components.

procedure Notification(AComponent: TComponent; Operation: TOperation)

Parameters:

property OnBeforeDecrypt: TROBaseConnectionOperation read write
