Reap

An alternative to close for Sockets, Contexts, Listeners, and Dialers avoiding S3 method dispatch.

reap(con)

Arguments

con

a Socket, Context, Listener or Dialer.

Value

An integer exit code (zero on success).

Details

May be used on unclassed external pointers e.g. those created by .context(). Returns silently and does not warn or error, nor does it update the state of object attributes.
