TCPDataTransferMode

enum

Defines what to transmit as payload in TCP segments

Currently you have the following choices:

TCP_TRANSFER_BYTECOUNT: TCP layer will transmit byte counts only.
TCP_TRANSFER_OBJECT: TCP layer will transmit the copy of application packet C++ objects
TCP_TRANSFER_BYTESTREAM: TCP layer will transmit bytes of the application packet.

See ITCP (the TCP layer interface) for details.
