TipcConnClient.check Method

Checks for traffic on the connection.

If check_mode is IO_CHECK_READ, this method will return true if there is data available to be read. If IO_CHECK_WRITE, true will be returned if data can be written to the connection without blocking.

If the timeout_read option is 0.0, this method will block for up to timeout seconds. Otherwise, this method will return immediately.

Note: this method is also called by the next and search methods. This method is rarely used by end-user programs.
