Crate net2

Extensions to std::net networking types.

This crate implements a number of extensions to the standard std::net networking types, hopefully being slated for inclusion into the standard library in the future. The goal of this crate is to expose all sorts of cross-platform and platform-specific configuration options of UDP/TCP sockets. System APIs are wrapped with as thin a layer as possible instead of bundling multiple actions into one API call.

More information about the design of this crate can be found in the associated rfc

Examples

use net2::TcpBuilder;

let tcp = TcpBuilder::new_v4().unwrap();
tcp.reuse_address(true).unwrap()
   .only_v6(false).unwrap();

let mut stream = tcp.connect("127.0.0.1:80").unwrap();

// use `stream` as a TcpStream

Modules
