Remove nonos-sdk-v2.2.0-28-g89920dc aka 3v0, since we have a real v3 Remove 3.0.0...3.0.4 to reduce overhead in maintaining a bunch or binary patches Update our docs and menu opts to mention 'experimental' status Old versions still remains in git history, so anyone wanting to play around with 3.0.x could still make use of that work

Client Class
Methods documented for Client in Arduino
Methods and properties described further down are specific to ESP8266. They are not covered in Arduino WiFi library documentation. Before they are fully documented please refer to information below.
flush and stop
flush(timeoutMs)
and stop(timeoutMs)
both
have now an optional argument: timeout
in millisecond, and
both return a boolean.
Default input value 0 means that effective value is left at the discretion of the implementer.
flush()
returning true
indicates that
output data have effectively been sent, and false
that a
timeout has occurred.
stop()
returns false
in case of an issue
when closing the client (for instance a timed-out flush
).
Depending on implementation, its parameter can be passed to
flush()
.
abort
void abort();
Originally proposed in #8738 Unlike
stop()
, immediately shuts down internal connection
object.
Under usual circumstances, we either enter CLOSE_WAIT
or
TIME_WAIT
state. But, the connection object is not freed
right away, and requires us to either * wait until malloc()
returns NULL
when our TCP stack tries to allocate memory
for a new connection * manually call tcp_kill_timewait()
to
forcibly stop the 'oldest' connection
This API frees up resources used by the connection. Consider using it
instead of stop()
if your application handles a lot of
clients and frequently runs out of available heap memory.
Example:
# define MIN_HEAP_FREE 20000 // or whatever min available heap memory convienent for your application
auto client = server.accept();
// ... do something with the client object ...
if (ESP.getFreeHeap() >= MIN_HEAP_FREE) {
.stop();
client} else {
.abort();
client}
setNoDelay
(nodelay) setNoDelay
With nodelay
set to true
, this function
will to disable Nagle
algorithm.
This algorithm is intended to reduce TCP/IP traffic of small packets sent over the network by combining a number of small outgoing messages, and sending them all at once. The downside of such approach is effectively delaying individual messages until a big enough packet is assembled.
Example:
.setNoDelay(true); client
getNoDelay
Returns whether NoDelay is enabled or not for the current connection.
setSync
This is an experimental API that will set the client in synchronized
mode. In this mode, every write()
is flushed. It means that
after a call to write()
, data are ensured to be received
where they went sent to (that is flush
semantic).
When set to true
in WiFiClient
implementation,
- It slows down transfers, and implicitly disable the Nagle algorithm.
- It also allows to avoid a temporary copy of data that otherwise
consumes at most
TCP_SND_BUF
= (2 *MSS
) bytes per connection,
getSync
Returns whether Sync is enabled or not for the current connection.
setDefaultNoDelay and setDefaultSync
These set the default value for both setSync
and
setNoDelay
for every future instance of
WiFiClient
(including those coming from
WiFiServer.available()
by default).
Default values are false for both NoDelay
and
Sync
.
This means that Nagle is enabled by default for all new connections.
getDefaultNoDelay and getDefaultSync
Return the values to be used as default for NoDelay and Sync for all future connections.
