=head1 NAME

IO::Socket::UNIX - Object interface for AF_UNIX domain sockets

=head1 SYNOPSIS

    use IO::Socket::UNIX;

    my $SOCK_PATH = &quot;$ENV{HOME}/unix-domain-socket-test.sock&quot;;

    # Server:
    my $server = IO::Socket::UNIX-&gt;new(
        Type =&gt; SOCK_STREAM(),
        Local =&gt; $SOCK_PATH,
        Listen =&gt; 1,
    );

    my $count = 1;
    while (my $conn = $server-&gt;accept()) {
        $conn-&gt;print(&quot;Hello &quot; . ($count++) . &quot;\n&quot;);
    }

    # Client:
    my $client = IO::Socket::UNIX-&gt;new(
        Type =&gt; SOCK_STREAM(),
        Peer =&gt; $SOCK_PATH,
    );

    # Now read and write from $client

=head1 DESCRIPTION

C&lt;IO::Socket::UNIX&gt; provides an object interface to creating and using sockets
in the AF_UNIX domain. It is built upon the L&lt;IO::Socket&gt; interface and
inherits all the methods defined by L&lt;IO::Socket&gt;.

=head1 CONSTRUCTOR

=over 4

=item new ( [ARGS] )

Creates an C&lt;IO::Socket::UNIX&gt; object, which is a reference to a
newly created symbol (see the C&lt;Symbol&gt; package). C&lt;new&gt;
optionally takes arguments, these arguments are in key-value pairs.

In addition to the key-value pairs accepted by L&lt;IO::Socket&gt;,
C&lt;IO::Socket::UNIX&gt; provides.

    Type    	Type of socket (eg SOCK_STREAM or SOCK_DGRAM)
    Local   	Path to local fifo
    Peer    	Path to peer fifo
    Listen  	Queue size for listen

If the constructor is only passed a single argument, it is assumed to
be a C&lt;Peer&gt; specification.

If the C&lt;Listen&gt; argument is given, but false, the queue size will be set to 5.

=head1 METHODS

=over 4

=item hostpath()

Returns the pathname to the fifo at the local end

=item peerpath()

Returns the pathanme to the fifo at the peer end
