PR ImportTCPSocket
syntax #include "private/pprio.h" prfiledesc* pr_importtcpsocket(prosfd osfd); parameters the function has the following parameters: osfd the native file descriptor for the tcp socket to import.
... description a native tcp socket osfd can be imported into nspr with pr_importtcpsocket.
... the caller gives up control of the native tcp socket osfd and should use the prfiledesc* returned by pr_importtcpsocket instead.
...And 6 more matches

PR_NewTCPSocket
syntax #include <prio.h> prfiledesc* pr_newtcpsocket(void); returns the function returns one of the following values: upon successful completion, a pointer to the prfiledesc object created for the newly opened ipv4 tcp socket.
...pr_newtcpsocket creates a new ipv4 tcp socket.
... see also pr_newtcpsocket is deprecated because it is hardcoded to create an ipv4 tcp socket.
... new code should use pr_opentcpsocket instead, which allows the address family (ipv4 or ipv6) of the new tcp socket to be specified.

PR_OpenTCPSocket
syntax #include <prio.h> prfiledesc* pr_opentcpsocket(printn af); parameters the function has the following parameters: af the address family of the new tcp socket.
...pr_opentcpsocket creates a new tcp socket of the address family af.

Nonblocking IO In NSPR
in nspr, a new socket returned by <tt>pr_newtcpsocket()</tt> or <tt>pr_newudpsocket()</tt> is always created in blocking mode.
... one can make the new socket nonblocking by using <tt>pr_setsockopt()</tt> as in the example below (error checking is omitted for clarity): <tt>prfiledesc *sock;</tt> <tt>printn optval = 1;</tt> <tt>sock = pr_newtcpsocket();</tt> /* * make the socket nonblocking */ pr_setsockopt(sock, pr_sockopt_nonblocking, &optval, sizeof(optval)); programming constraints there are some constraints due to the use of nt asynchronous i/o in the nspr.

PRFileDesc
otherwise, you use functions such as pr_open and pr_newtcpsocket to obtain a file descriptor, which you should treat as an opaque structure.

NSPR functions
pr_importtcpsocket socket i/o functions as mentioned above, the ssl library in nss implements the ssl protocol as an nspr i/o layer.

configuration the configuration portion of an ssl-enabled application typically begins by opening a new socket and then importing the new socket into the ssl environment: pr_newtcpsocket.
