same computer to text my application before to start with two
diferents computers.
Thank Javier -

hello my name hamza , my email hamzahwh@yahoo.com
you can do client / server in the same computer by useing concept "localhost" if you send to my your program i will correct to you and send to you .
and also i try to do multi client / server in c# programming if you can help my after . -
When the Client tries to connect to a disconnected IP address, there is a long timeout of 23 seconds...
How can we reduce this timeout?
What is the method to control it?
Thanks for help -
Regarding blocking socket calls. Are u assuming .net does the polling. As no additional code has to be written for polling. So no need to return to main thread and a delegate also is not required.
Now consider in asynchronous mode, multiple clients are connected. Then the delegates for beginreceive will fire at will and when multiple fire at same time, it gets stacked as there only one thread. Then the last delegate to be fired will be processed and then down the stack. In fact if we need to sequence something, a lot of coding is involved. The flow also is not clear and criss crosses.
Could you comment on the above. I have a req which needs sequential access of the messages and depends on a flow mapping of messages when there are multiple clients. I been thinking async(with delegates) will be an overhead and confusing/complicated to implement.

there is aproblem meet me ,i designed aprogram simulate the work of credit card by designing two programs one used by auser and the other one for the administration and deal with database ,but when i put the two program on different computer they are not work
the tcplistner statement as follow:
listener = new TcpListener(1500);
the tcpclient statement as follow:
client = new TcpClient("192.168.1.1", 1500);
since the "192.168.1.1" is the ip address of the machine that the server program run at -
I am using Visual C# 2005. It turns out that there are some cross thread calls to forms controls which are flagged as unsafe when running under C# 2005. I will post fixes to these a little later.
-
Ok, here is the fix to make the samples work under C# 2005 without exceptions.
In the SocketServer project modify the SocketServer class as follows:
1. Add the following delegate declaration:
// This delegate enables asynchronous calls for setting
// the text property on a TextBox control.
delegate void AppendTextCallback(string text);
2. Add the following method:
// If the calling thread is different from the thread that
// created the TextBox control, this method creates a
// AppendTextCallback and calls itself asynchronously using the
// Invoke method.
//
// If the calling thread is the same as the thread that created
// the TextBox control, the Text property is set directly.
private void AppendRxText(string text)
{
// InvokeRequired required compares the thread ID of the
// calling thread to the thread ID of the creating thread.
// If these threads are different, it returns true.
if (this.txtDataRx.InvokeRequired)
{
AppendTextCallback d = new AppendTextCallback(AppendRxText);
this.Invoke(d, new object[] { text });
}
else
{
txtDataRx.Text = txtDataRx.Text + text;
}
}
3. Replace the OnDataReceived method with the following, or make the minor one line code change
as commented in the method below if you prefer:
public void OnDataReceived(IAsyncResult asyn)
{
try
{
CSocketPacket theSockId = (CSocketPacket)asyn.AsyncState ;
//end receive...
int iRx = 0 ;
iRx = theSockId.thisSocket.EndReceive (asyn);
char[] chars = new char[iRx + 1];
System.Text.Decoder d = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetDecoder();
int charLen = d.GetChars(theSockId.dataBuffer, 0, iRx, chars, 0);
System.String szData = new System.String(chars);
// Old offending line
//txtDataRx.Text = txtDataRx.Text + szData;
AppendRxText(szData);
WaitForData(m_socWorker );
}
catch (ObjectDisposedException )
{
System.Diagnostics.Debugger.Log(0,"1","\nOnDataReceived: Socket has been closed\n");
}
catch(SocketException se)
{
MessageBox.Show (se.Message );
}

I'm having Interoperability problems with a Java client. The Java Client connects to a TCP server application, and immediately sends some data, and closes the connection.
After the client is connected, the server recieves only 1 byte of data.
If I introduce a delay(Thread.Sleep, MBox, or a breakpoint), between the OnClientConnect, WaitForData and OnDataReceived functions, I get complete data.
This shouldn't happen logically. I'm wondering what might be the problem.

Hi,
I want an application , where a single client using more than one server (Same Application running in more than one machines.).Client listening to a single port for all the servers it connected to.
Client application will receive huge data frequently. Server will process and send the data to client.
As i want the application to be started first i made the main application as Server. Am i right.
or Do we have option for passive Servers.
With Thanks,
Eswar

If u encounter a Cross-Threading problem u may need to do a little fix. Replace OnDataReceived function in the server side with that code:
delegate void FixCallBack(IAsyncResult asyn); public void OnDataReceived(IAsyncResult asyn) { try { if (this.InvokeRequired) { FixCallBack dd = new FixCallBack(OnDataReceived); this.Invoke(dd, new object[] { asyn }); } else { CSocketPacket theSockId = (CSocketPacket)asyn.AsyncState; //end receive... int iRx = 0; iRx = theSockId.thisSocket.EndReceive(asyn); char[] chars = new char[iRx + 1]; System.Text.Decoder d = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetDecoder(); int charLen = d.GetChars(theSockId.dataBuffer, 0, iRx, chars, 0); System.String szData = new System.String(chars); txtDataRx.Text = txtDataRx.Text + szData; WaitForData(m_socWorker); } } catch (ObjectDisposedException ) { System.Diagnostics.Debugger.Log(0,"1","\nOnDataReceived: Socket has been closed\n"); } catch(SocketException se) { MessageBox.Show (se.Message ); } } -
hello I want to send an object with tcp socket ( a class that i made it). I see here that you r sending string (converted to byte array)
How can i convert a class to byte array so i can send it with this socket???? (the winsock object in C# it takes an "object" parameter and it send it ,this socket can not take anything else except the byte array)
