oocket: socket library for ooc

oocket is a simple library for ooc that allows you to use linux sockets. For now, only clients are allowed and there are no hostname lookup mechanizisms.

Get ooc from http://github.com/nddrylliog/ooc

oocket works by opening a socket, connecting it, and giving the caller an instance of the built-in FileDescriptor class. FileDescriptor's methods are read() and write(). See sdk/os/FileDescriptor in ooc for more information on that.

Example

(see also example.ooc)

import socket
sock := Socket new()

sock connect("174.137.57.117", 6667)

sock io write("NICK asdf\nUSER a s d f\nJOIN #offtopic\n")

buffer: String
buffer = sock io read(255)
buffer println()

Todo

1. Handle DNS
2. Allow serving connections
3. Closing sockets
4. Non-blocking reads and writes
