NAME

Net::Server::Proto::UNIX - Net::Server UNIX protocol.

SYNOPSIS

See Net::Server::Proto.

DESCRIPTION

Protocol module for Net::Server. This module implements the socket type. See Net::Server::Proto.

Any sockets created during startup will be chown'ed to the user and group specified in the startup arguments.

PARAMETERS

The following parameters may be specified in addition to normal command line parameters for a Net::Server. See Net::Server for more information on reading arguments.

unix_type

Can be either

SOCK_STREAM

or

SOCK_DGRAM

(default is

SOCK_STREAM

). This can also be passed on the port line (see Net::Server::Proto).

However, this method is deprecated. If you want

SOCK_STREAM -

just use proto

UNIX

without any other arguments. If you'd like

SOCK_DGRAM,

use the new proto

UNIXDGRAM.

METHODS

NS_unix_path/NS_unix_type

In addition to the standard

NS_

methods of Net::Server::Proto classes, the

UNIX

types also have legacy calls to NS_unix_path and NS_unix_type.

Since version 2.000, NS_unix_path is simply an alias to NS_port. NS_unix_type is now redundant with NS_proto.

These methods were missing between version 2.000 and 2.003 but have been returned as legacy bridges.
