Nope. It's a UNIX function:
http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/007908799/xns/setsockopt.html
And corresponding Python stuff is in the socket module. The code above
can be roughly translated as
def ConnectToServer(self, serverAddr, port):
s = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
self.connection = s
s.connect((serverAddr, port))
s.setsockopt(socket.SOL_SOCKET, socket.SO_DONTROUTE, 1)
s.setsockopt(socket.SOL_SOCKET, socket.TCP_NODELAY, 1)
s.setsockopt(socket.SOL_SOCKET, socket.SO_KEEPALIVE, 1)
s.setsockopt(socket.SOL_SOCKET, socket.SO_RCVBUF, 64*1024)
s.setsockopt(socket.SOL_SOCKET, socket.SO_SNDBUF, 64*1024)
Note, you don't need to handle errors in this method like C++ code,
instead catch socket.error exception where you handle *all* fatal
exceptions during connection setup.
With regards to your first question about automatic language
translation - don't even dream about it. IMHO, C++ is one of the most
complicated high-level languages for automatic translation.
