Socket.setOption

Sets the value of an integer-valued option on socket, as with setsockopt(). (If you need to set a non-integer-valued option, you will need to call setsockopt() directly.) The <gio/gnetworking.h> header pulls in system headers that will define most of the standard/portable socket options. For unusual socket protocols or platform-dependent options, you may need to include additional headers. Since 2.36
