Does Node.js "new Socket" create a Unix file socket?
Well when you connect a socket, socket.fd is not null, at least not in my case, so provide an example case please.
Note that you can also specify existing file descriptor at socket creation.
Edit:
var net = require('net'), fs = require('fs'), sock;// Create socket filefs.open('/tmp/node.test.sock', 'w+', function(err, fdesc){ if (err || !fdesc) { throw 'Error: ' + (err || 'No fdesc'); } // Create socket sock = new net.Socket({ fd : fdesc }); console.log(sock);});
