add_subprotocol() [1/2]
template<typename config >
void websocketpp::connection< config >::add_subprotocol | ( | std::string const & | request | ) |
Adds the given subprotocol string to the request list (exception)
Adds a subprotocol to the list to send with the opening handshake. This may be called multiple times to request more than one. If the server supports one of these, it may choose one. If so, it will return it in it's handshake reponse and the value will be available via get_subprotocol(). Subprotocol requests should be added in order of preference.
Parameters
[in] | request | The subprotocol to request |

◆ pause_reading()
template<typename config >
lib::error_code websocketpp::connection< config >::pause_reading |
Pause reading of new data.
Signals to the connection to halt reading of new data. While reading is paused, the connection will stop reading from its associated socket. In turn this will result in TCP based flow control kicking in and slowing data flow from the remote endpoint.
This is useful for applications that push new requests to a queue to be processed by another thread and need a way to signal when their request queue is full without blocking the network processing thread.
Use resume_reading()
to resume.
If supported by the transport this is done asynchronously. As such reading may not stop until the current read operation completes. Typically you can expect to receive no more bytes after initiating a read pause than the size of the read buffer.
If reading is paused for this connection already nothing is changed.

The interrupt handler is called whenever the connection is manually interrupted by the application.
Parameters
h | The new interrupt_handler |
Definition at line 432 of file connection.hpp.
◆ set_max_http_body_size()
template<typename config >
| inline |
Set maximum HTTP message body size.
Set maximum HTTP message body size. Maximum message body size determines the point at which the connection will stop reading an HTTP request whose body is too large.
The default is set by the endpoint that creates the connection.
Since
0.5.0
Parameters
new_value | The value to set as the maximum message size. |
Definition at line 610 of file connection.hpp.
◆ set_max_message_size()
template<typename config >
| inline |
Set maximum message size.
Set maximum message size. Maximum message size determines the point at which the connection will fail with the message_too_big protocol error. This value may be changed during the connection.
The default is set by the endpoint that creates the connection.
Since
0.3.0
Parameters
new_value | The value to set as the maximum message size. |
Definition at line 575 of file connection.hpp.
◆ set_message_handler()
template<typename config >
| inline |
Set message handler.
The message handler is called after a new message has been received.
Parameters
h | The new message_handler |
Definition at line 473 of file connection.hpp.
◆ set_open_handler()
template<typename config >
| inline |
Set open handler.
The open handler is called after the WebSocket handshake is complete and the connection is considered OPEN.
Parameters
h | The new open_handler |
Definition at line 351 of file connection.hpp.
◆ set_open_handshake_timeout()
template<typename config >
| inline |
Set open handshake timeout.
Sets the length of time the library will wait after an opening handshake has been initiated before cancelling it. This can be used to prevent excessive wait times for outgoing clients or excessive resource usage from broken clients or DoS attacks on servers.
Connections that time out will have their fail handlers called with the open_handshake_timeout error code.
The default value is specified via the compile time config value 'timeout_open_handshake'. The default value in the core config is 5000ms. A value of 0 will disable the timer entirely.
To be effective, the transport you are using must support timers. See the documentation for your transport policy for details about its timer support.
Parameters
dur | The length of the open handshake timeout in ms |
Definition at line 501 of file connection.hpp.
◆ set_ping_handler()
template<typename config >
| inline |
Set ping handler.
The ping handler is called whenever the connection receives a ping control frame. The ping payload is included.
The ping handler's return time controls whether or not a pong is sent in response to this ping. Returning false will suppress the return pong. If no ping handler is set a pong will be sent.
Parameters
h | The new ping_handler |
Definition at line 387 of file connection.hpp.
◆ set_pong_handler()
template<typename config >
| inline |
Set pong handler.
The pong handler is called whenever the connection receives a pong control frame. The pong payload is included.
Parameters
h | The new pong_handler |
Definition at line 398 of file connection.hpp.
◆ set_pong_timeout()
template<typename config >
| inline |
Set pong timeout.
Sets the length of time the library will wait for a pong response to a ping. This can be used as a keepalive or to detect broken connections.
Pong responses that time out will have the pong timeout handler called.
The default value is specified via the compile time config value 'timeout_pong'. The default value in the core config is 5000ms. A value of 0 will disable the timer entirely.
To be effective, the transport you are using must support timers. See the documentation for your transport policy for details about its timer support.
Parameters
dur | The length of the pong timeout in ms |
Definition at line 546 of file connection.hpp.
◆ set_pong_timeout_handler()
template<typename config >
| inline |
Set pong timeout handler.
If the transport component being used supports timers, the pong timeout handler is called whenever a pong control frame is not received with the configured timeout period after the application sends a ping.
The config setting timeout_pong
controls the length of the timeout period. It is specified in milliseconds.
This can be used to probe the health of the remote endpoint's WebSocket implementation. This does not guarantee that the remote application itself is still healthy but can be a useful diagnostic.
Note: receipt of this callback doesn't mean the pong will never come. This functionality will not suppress delivery of the pong in question should it arrive after the timeout.
Parameters
h | The new pong_timeout_handler |
Definition at line 421 of file connection.hpp.
◆ set_status() [1/4]
template<typename config >
void websocketpp::connection< config >::set_status | ( | http::status_code::value | code | ) |
Set response status code and message (exception)
Sets the response status code and message to independent custom values. use set_status(status_code::value) to set the code and have the standard message be automatically set.
This member function is valid only from the http() and validate() handler callbacks.
Parameters
[in] | code | Code to set |
[in] | msg | Message to set |
Exceptions
websocketpp::exception |

◆ set_status() [2/4]
template<typename config >
void websocketpp::connection< config >::set_status | ( | http::status_code::value | code, |
lib::error_code & | ec | ||
) |
Set response status code and message (exception free)
Sets the response status code to code
and looks up the corresponding message for standard codes. Non-standard codes will be entered as Unknown use set_status(status_code::value,std::string) overload to set both values explicitly.
This member function is valid only from the http() and validate() handler callbacks.
Since
0.9.0
Parameters
[in] | code | Code to set |
[in] | msg | Message to set |
[out] | ec | A status code describing the outcome of the operation |

◆ set_termination_handler()
template<typename config >

◆ set_validate_handler()
template<typename config >
| inline |
Set validate handler.
The validate handler is called after a WebSocket handshake has been parsed but before a response is returned. It provides the application a chance to examine the request and determine whether or not it wants to accept the connection.
Returning false from the validate handler will reject the connection. If no validate handler is present, all connections will be allowed.
Parameters
h | The new validate_handler |
