class SocketStream: std.stream.Stream;

SocketStream is a stream for a blocking, connected Socket.

this(Socket sock, FileMode mode);: Constructs a SocketStream with the specified Socket and FileMode flags.
this(Socket sock);: Uses mode FileMode.In | FileMode.Out.
Socket socket();: Property to get the Socket that is being streamed.
size_t readBlock(void* _buffer, size_t size);: Attempts to read the entire block, waiting if necessary.
size_t writeBlock(const void* _buffer, size_t size);: Attempts to write the entire block, waiting if necessary.
ulong seek(long offset, SeekPos whence);: Socket streams do not support seeking. This disabled method throws a SeekException.
string toString();: Does not return the entire stream because that would require the remote connection to be closed.
void close();: Close the Socket.
