Struct TcpStream 

pub struct TcpStream { /* private fields */ }

A goroutine-aware TCP stream socket.

Blocking reads and writes park the calling goroutine (via the netpoll backend) when the operation would block, resuming it when data is available or the send buffer has space.

TcpStream implements std::io::Read and std::io::Write (for both &mut TcpStream and &TcpStream), so it works with any Rust I/O adapter without unsafe wrapper code. Use try_clone to split a connection into independent read and write halves.

Implementations

impl TcpStream

pub fn connect<A: ToSocketAddrs>(addr: A) -> Result<Self>

Connect to addr.

Parks the goroutine until the connection completes if it does not complete immediately (which is typical for non-blocking connect).

Equivalent to net.Dial("tcp", addr) in Go.

pub fn read(&mut self, buf: &mut [u8]) -> Result<usize>

Read bytes from the stream into buf.

Parks the goroutine if no data is immediately available.

pub fn write(&mut self, buf: &[u8]) -> Result<usize>

Write buf to the stream.

Parks the goroutine if the send buffer is full. Returns the number of bytes written (may be less than buf.len()).

pub fn try_clone(&self) -> Result<TcpStream>

Duplicate this stream, creating a second TcpStream that refers to the same underlying TCP connection.

The duplicate is an independent TcpStream with its own fd (via dup(2)). Both streams share the same socket; reads and writes on either half see the same data stream. Closing one does not close the other.

The typical use-case is splitting a connection into a dedicated read half and a dedicated write half for use in separate goroutines.

pub fn peer_addr(&self) -> Result<SocketAddr>

Return the remote address of the peer this stream is connected to.

pub fn local_addr(&self) -> Result<SocketAddr>

Return the local address this stream is bound to.

pub fn as_raw_fd(&self) -> RawFd

Return the underlying raw file descriptor.

Trait Implementations

impl Drop for TcpStream

fn drop(&mut self)

Executes the destructor for this type.

fn pin_drop(self: Pin<&mut Self>)

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (pin_ergonomics)

Execute the destructor for this type, but different to Drop::drop, it requires self to be pinned.

impl Read for &TcpStream

Implements std::io::Read on a shared reference by issuing a raw libc::read call. The fd is non-blocking; EAGAIN causes the goroutine to park via netpoll exactly as the owned-&mut self path does.

This enables using the same TcpStream for both reading and writing from two separate code sites within the same goroutine (e.g. after splitting into read/write halves conceptually without calling try_clone).

fn read(&mut self, buf: &mut [u8]) -> Result<usize>

Pull some bytes from this source into the specified buffer, returning how many bytes were read.

fn read_vectored(&mut self, bufs: &mut [IoSliceMut<'_>]) -> Result<usize, Error>

Like read, except that it reads into a slice of buffers.

fn is_read_vectored(&self) -> bool

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (can_vector)

Determines if this Reader has an efficient read_vectored implementation.
