}

// Services a client connection.
async Task ServiceConnectionAsync(ServerClient<IPacketIOService> socket) {
    Logger.Log("Connection from " + socket.Address);

    // Simple server loops forever receiving messages and printing them to the log.
    for (;;) {
        var    buffer  = await socket.IO.ReadAsync(length: -1);     // -1 means read all the data received
