<B><TT>DwNntpClient</TT></B> is a class that handles the client side of an
|
|
|
|
|
NNTP session. Specifically, <B><TT>DwNntpClient</TT></B> provides facilities
|
|
|
|
|
for opening a connection to an NNTP server, sending commands and data to
|
|
|
|
|
the server, receiving responses and data from the server, and closing the
|
|
|
|
|
connection. The protocol implemented is the Network News Transport Protocol,
|
|
|
|
|
as specified in RFC-977.
|
|
|
|
|
<P>
|
|
|
|
|
<B><TT>DwNntpClient</TT></B> is derived from
|
|
|
|
|
<B><TT><A HREF="protocol.html">DwProtocolClient</A></TT></B>. For information
|
|
|
|
|
about inherited member functions, especially member functions for detecting
|
|
|
|
|
failures or errors, see the man page for
|
|
|
|
|
<B><TT>DwProtocolClient</TT></B>.
|
|
|
|
|
<P>
|
|
|
|
|
In an NNTP session, the client sends commands to the server and receives
|
|
|
|
|
responses from the server. A client command consists of a command word and
|
|
|
|
|
zero or more argument words. A server response consists of a status line
|
|
|
|
|
and possibly some additional lines of text. The status line consists of a
|
|
|
|
|
three-digit numeric reply code followed by additional information. The reply
|
|
|
|
|
code indicates a success or failure condition. In some cases, the server
|
|
|
|
|
sends lines of text immediately after the status line.
|
|
|
|
|
<B><TT>DwNntpClient</TT></B> provides facilities for you to send commands
|
|
|
|
|
to the server and receive responses from the server.
|
|
|
|
|
<P>
|
|
|
|
|
<B><TT>DwNntpClient</TT></B> has only a default constructor. On Win32 platforms,
|
|
|
|
|
it is possible for the constructor to fail. (It calls WSAStartup().) You
|
|
|
|
|
should verify that the constructor succeeded by calling the inherited member
|
|
|
|
|
function <B><TT>DwProtocolClient::LastError()</TT></B> and checking for a
|
|
|
|
|
zero return value.
|
|
|
|
|
<P>
|
|
|
|
|
To open a connection to the server, call the member function
|
|
|
|
|
<B><TT>Open()</TT></B> with the name of the server as an argument.
|
|
|
|
|
<B><TT>Open()</TT></B> accepts an optional argument that specifies the TCP
|
|
|
|
|
port that the server listens to. The default port is the standard NNTP port
|
|
|
|
|
(119). <B><TT>Open()</TT></B> may fail, so you should check the return value
|
|
|
|
|
to verify that it succeeded. To close the connection, call the inherited
|
|
|
|
|
member function <B><TT>DwProtocolClient::Close()</TT></B>. To check if a
|
|
|
|
|
connection is open, call the inherited member function
|
|
|
|
|
<B><TT>DwProtocolClient::IsOpen()</TT></B>. <B><TT>IsOpen()</TT></B> returns
|
|
|
|
|
a boolean value that indicates whether or not a call to
|
|
|
|
|
<B><TT>Open()</TT></B> was successful; it will not detect failure in the
|
|
|
|
|
network or a close operation by the remote host.
|
|
|
|
|
<P>
|
|
|
|
|
For each NNTP command, <B><TT>DwNntpClient</TT></B> has a member function
|
|
|
|
|
that sends that command and receives the server's response. If the command
|
|
|
|
|
takes any arguments, then those arguments are passed as function arguments
|
|
|
|
|
to the command function. The command functions return the numeric value of
|
|
|
|
|
the three-digit reply code returned by the server. Your program must check
|
|
|
|
|
the reply code to determine whether or not the command was accepted and performed
|
|
|
|
|
by the server. In some cases, because of a communications error or some other
|
|
|
|
|
error, it is not possible for the command function to send the command or
|
|
|
|
|
receive the response. When this happens, the command function will return
|
|
|
|
|
0. You can determine the precise error or failure by calling the inherited
|
|
|
|
|
member functions <B><TT>DwProtocolClient::LastError()</TT></B> or
|
|
|
|
|
<B><TT>DwProtocolClient::LastFailure()</TT></B>.
|
|
|
|
|
<P>
|
|
|
|
|
After each command is sent, <B><TT>DwNntpClient</TT></B> receives the server's
|
|
|
|
|
response and remembers it. The member function
|
|
|
|
|
<B><TT>ReplyCode()</TT></B> returns the numeric value of the reply code received
|
|
|
|
|
in response to the last command. <B><TT>StatusResponse()</TT></B> returns
|
|
|
|
|
the entire status response from the server, including the reply code. If
|
|
|
|
|
no status response is received, possibly because of a communications error
|
|
|
|
|
or failure, <B><TT>ReplyCode()</TT></B> returns zero and
|
|
|
|
|
<B><TT>StatusResponse()</TT></B> returns an empty string.
|
|
|
|
|
<P>
|
|
|
|
|
The server sends a status response, including a reply code, for all all NNTP
|
|
|
|
|
commands. For some commands, such as when the client requests an article
|
|
|
|
|
body, the server sends a multi-line text response immediately following the
|
|
|
|
|
status response. Multi-line text responses can be received in either of two
|
|
|
|
|
ways. The simplest way is to call the member function
|
|
|
|
|
<B><TT>TextResponse()</TT></B> after a command completes successfully. This
|
|
|
|
|
simple method works fine for non-interactive applications. It can be a problem
|
|
|
|
|
in interactive applications, however, because there is no data to display
|
|
|
|
|
to a user until the entire text response is retrieved. An alternative method
|
|
|
|
|
allows your program to retrieve the text response one line at a time as it
|
|
|
|
|
is received. To use this method, you must define a subclass of
|
|
|
|
|
<B><TT>DwObserver</TT></B> and assign an object of that class to the
|
|
|
|
|
<B><TT>DwNntpClient</TT></B> object using the member function
|
|
|
|
|
<B><TT>SetObserver()</TT></B>. <B><TT>DwObserver</TT></B> is an abstract
|
|
|
|
|
class, declared in protocol.h, that has just one pure virtual member function
|
|
|
|
|
<B><TT>Notify()</TT></B>. After each line of the text response is received,
|
|
|
|
|
<B><TT>DwNntpClient</TT></B> will call the <B><TT>Notify()</TT></B> member
|
|
|
|
|
function of its assigned <B><TT>DwObserver</TT></B> object. Each invocation
|
|
|
|
|
of <B><TT>Notify()</TT></B> should call the <B><TT>DwNntpClient</TT></B>
|
|
|
|
|
member function <B><TT>TextResponse()</TT></B> to retrieve the next line
|
|
|
|
|
of the text response. Note that you cannot use both of these methods at the
|
|
|
|
|
same time: if an observer is assigned, <B><TT>TextResponse()</TT></B> returns
|
|
|
|
|
only the last line received, not the entire multi-line text response.
|
|
|
|
|
<P>
|
|
|
|
|
Certain NNTP commands, such as the POST command, require the NNTP client
|
|
|
|
|
to send multiple lines of text to the server. To perform this bulk data transfer,
|
|
|
|
|
<B><TT>DwNntpClient</TT></B> provides the member function
|
|
|
|
|
<B><TT>SendData()</TT></B>. In the current implementation,
|
|
|
|
|
<B><TT>SendData()</TT></B> does not convert end of line characters, so it
|
|
|
|
|
is your responsibility to convert the end of line characters to CR LF, if
|
|
|
|
|
necessary. (You may use the utility function
|
|
|
|
|
<B><TT>DwToCrLfEol()</TT></B> to do the conversion.)
|
|
|
|
|
<B><TT>SendData()</TT></B> will perform the character stuffing to protect
|
|
|
|
|
'.' at the beginning of a line, and it will append the final [CR LF] '.'
|
|
|
|
|
CR LF. It is possible to divide data and make multiple calls to
|
|
|
|
|
<B><TT>SendData()</TT></B>; however, if you do so, please note the following
|
|
|
|
|
paragraph.
|
|
|
|
|
<P>
|
|
|
|
|
Note: Because of a feature (some might say bug) in the current implementation,
|
|
|
|
|
<B><TT>SendData()</TT></B> will not detect a '.' at the beginning of a line
|
|
|
|
|
if the CR LF '.' sequence is split between two calls to
|
|
|
|
|
<B><TT>SendData()</TT></B>. This problem will probably be resolved in a future
|
|
|
|
|
version, but be aware that such a change will require a change in
|
|
|
|
|
<B><TT>DwNntpClient</TT></B>'s interface.

Sends bulk data to the server and returns the reply code received. A bulk

data transfer follows a POST or IHAVE command and is used to send a complete

article to the server.

<P>
|
|
|
|
|
In the current implementation, <B><TT>SendData()</TT></B> does not convert
|
|
|
|
|
end of line characters, so it is your responsibility to convert the end of
|
|
|
|
|
line characters to CR LF, if necessary. (You may use the utility function
|
|
|
|
|
<B><TT>DwToCrLfEol()</TT></B> to do the conversion.)
|
|
|
|
|
<B><TT>SendData()</TT></B> will perform the character stuffing to protect
|
|
|
|
|
'.' at the beginning of a line, and it will append the final [CR LF] '.'
|
|
|
|
|
CR LF. It is possible to divide the data and make multiple calls to
|
|
|
|
|
<B><TT>SendData()</TT></B>; however, this may cause problems in the current
|
|
|
|
|
implementation if a CR LF '.' sequence is split between calls.
