If there are more than size bytes available in the datagram, the excess bytes are discarded. If there are less then size bytes available in the current datagram, the available bytes are returned.

The maximum datagram size for UDP is 64K minus IP layer overhead. However datagrams larger than the link layer packet size will be fragmented, which may deteriorate performance and/or reliability. ----@param ip string # the IP address of the recipient.

Options are only needed by low-level or time-critical applications. You should only modify an option if you are sure you need it. ----@param option string # the name of the option to set.

This method turns an unconnected UDP object into a connected UDP object or vice versa. ----For connected objects, outgoing datagrams will be sent to the specified peer, and datagrams received from other peers will be discarded by the OS. Connected UDP objects must use the send and receive methods instead of sendto and receivefrom. ---- Since the address of the peer does not have to be passed to and from the OS, the use of connected UDP objects is recommended when the same peer is used for several transmissions and can result in up to 30% performance gains. ----@param address string # an IP address or a host name. ----@param port number # the port number. ----@return number # the value 1 on success, or nil in case of error. ----@return string # the error message, or nil if no error occurred. -function unconnected:setpeername(address, port) end - ----Binds the UDP object to a local address. ---- This method can only be called before any datagram is sent through the UDP object, and only once. Otherwise, the system automatically binds the object to all local interfaces and chooses an ephemeral port as soon as the first datagram is sent. After the local address is set, either automatically by the system or explicitly by setsockname, it cannot be changed. ----@param address string # an IP address or a host name. If address is "*" the system binds to all local interfaces using the constant INADDR_ANY. ----@param port number # the port number.

By default, the receive and receivefrom operations are blocking. That is, any call to the methods will block indefinitely, until data arrives. The settimeout function defines a limit on the amount of time the functions can block. When a timeout is set and the specified amount of time has elapsed, the affected methods give up and fail with an error code. ---- In UDP, the send and sendto methods never block (the datagram is just passed to the OS and the call returns immediately). Therefore, the settimeout method has no effect on them. ----@param value number # the amount of time to wait, in seconds. The nil timeout value allows operations to block indefinitely. Negative timeout values have the same effect. -function unconnected:settimeout(value) end - - - - -return socket
