write_line Function

This function transmits a text line to a service on an open connection. The newline character sequence will be appended to the message before it is transmitted.

Syntax

UTL_TCP.WRITE_LINE (c    IN OUT NOCOPY connection,
                    data IN            VARCHAR2 DEFAULT NULL) 
                                       RETURN PLS_INTEGER;

Table 83-11 write_line Function Parameters

Parameter	Description
c (IN OUT NOCOPY)	The TCP connection to send data to.
data (IN)	The buffer containing the data to be sent.
return value	The actual number of characters of data transmitted.

Usage Notes

The connection must have already been opened via a call to open_connection(). Text messages will be converted to the on-the-wire character set, specified when the connection was opened, before they are transmitted on the wire.
