Hi All, I am new to this vb .net stuff and working on getting an async socket program to work. Could somebody tell me if this is the correct approach, or if somebody has an example. Could I see it.
All I want to do is make a connection and display the data that is coming thru the port.
Imports System
Imports System.IO
Imports System.Net
Imports System.Net.Sockets
Imports System.Text
Imports Microsoft.VisualBasic
Module MyTcpListener
Sub Main()
Dim server As TcpListener
server = Nothing
Try
' Set the TcpListener on port 13000.
Dim port As Int32 = 10001
Dim localAddr As IPAddress = IPAddress.Parse("10.13.99.90")
server = New TcpListener(localAddr, port)
' Start listening for client requests.
server.Start()
' Buffer for reading data
Dim bytes(1024) As Byte
Dim data As String = Nothing
' Enter the listening loop.
While True
Console.Write("Waiting for a connection... ")
' Perform a blocking call to accept requests.
' You could also user server.AcceptSocket() here.
Dim client As TcpClient = server.AcceptTcpClient()
Console.WriteLine("Connected!")
data = Nothing
' Get a stream object for reading and writing
Dim stream As NetworkStream = client.GetStream()
Dim i As Int32
' Loop to receive all the data sent by the client.
i = stream.Read(bytes, 0, bytes.Length)
While (i <> 0)
' Translate data bytes to a ASCII string.
data = System.Text.Encoding.ASCII.GetString(bytes, 0, i)
Console.WriteLine("Received: {0}", data)
' Process the data sent by the client.
data = data.ToUpper()
Dim msg As Byte() = System.Text.Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(data)
' Send back a response.
stream.Write(msg, 0, msg.Length)
Console.WriteLine("Sent: {0}", data)
i = stream.Read(bytes, 0, bytes.Length)
End While
' Shutdown and end connection
client.Close()
End While
Catch e As SocketException
Console.WriteLine("SocketException: {0}", e)
Finally
server.Stop()
End Try
Console.WriteLine(ControlChars.Cr + "Hit enter to continue....")
Console.Read()
End Sub 'Main
