I am trying to communicate to a local AS3 Air app on my PC via sockets. The VB.Net app is acting as a server in this case while the Air app is a client. The .Net app sends data every 25ms to the Air app. I have not send any message termination. I just receive the data on Air app and process it.
[Code]...
I built a server to receive data from clients.But how can I know the length of every data package.
Dim bteAcceptData(1024) As Byte
Dim myAsyncCallBack As New AsyncCallback(AddressOf ReceiveData)
intByte = EndSocket.EndReceive(pIAsyncResult)

I'm writing a program which uses sockets, Now the issue I'm having is, If the packet received is over a certain size, the socket then fails to receive anymore packets/data after it.
View 3 RepliesI'm having some doubts on which communication protocol/platform would be better for my current development. The focus is on communication performance, and while reliability matters, I can handle a some packet loss. UDP sounds like the correct choice, but then the following question came up:
"What would be better, using a UDP socket directly in .NET, or using a UDP socket implemented in unmanaged C++ with a wrapper to .NET?"I'm quite sure that C++ is faster than .NET, and while the communication might be faster, I'm not sure if that performance improvement is not lost with all the C++-to-.NET wrapping?
Some info about the project I'll be using this on:
- The core of the project will be all made in VB.NET.
- There'll be a high packet sending/receiving volume (about 100-200/sec).
- There'll be many clients requesting data to the server.
- Network communication will be over a GB-LAN.
- Data is time sensitive, and some packet loss is accepted.
- Running on .NET 3.5.
I'm developing a VB.NET class that connects to one machine that has TCP/IP ASCII communication. I'll show the code and try to explain what is the problem:

I need to control a device with a GPIB port. I have the commands that I need to use to do this; but I don't know which is the sintaxis in Visual Basic.
For example if I need to send a instruction like "START:0.01" to the external device which are the libraries that I have to include?, how should I write the programming line to do this?
The main tasks that I need to program are sending data, receiving data, and saving data
I am using Visual Basic express to create a serial interface to a multi-room audio controller. I have started by creating a form that can connect to the controller and I can receive data from the Controller and display Zone status, volume etc in corresponding texts box thaks to help from Stanav and Tassa in my previous thread.
My next problem is to do with receiving lots of data from the serial port and my application getting out of sync. This is mainly caused by turning the volum control as each time it is turned a little bit the controller sends out the new status of the Zone being effected
eg
****Turning Volume knob on Zone 1***
Status returned from Controller:
#Z01PWRON,SRC3,VOL05<CR>

I have a problem reading data from an RFID-reader. I connect to the reader by tcp and wait for DataAvailable to be true, then reading the data until I got a end of data character. Then I just go back and waiting for a new DataAvailable. This is done in a own thread for the function.
There seems to be some kind of timeout, If I don't got any data in a couple of minutes, then it just sits there in the do/loop waiting for DataAvailable. I hold the card to the RFID reader, it beeps, but there is no data available. I don't get any exeptions, and the information says that the clientsocket is still connected. Are there anything more I can check?
If I put the card to the reader in a minute-interval it seems as this will never occur. So 2-3 minutes idle:ing seems to do this.
Here are my code to read data from the socket, I have taken away some irrelevant code:
Sub test(ByVal ip As String, ByVal port As Integer)
' this sub is meant to run forever

I am constantly receiving 2 lines of data via my serial port, example:
GPRMC, 151243.000 , A, 3723.2475, N, 10354.0208,E,1.26, 290.95, 9.0,,,A*67
GPGGA, 151244.000, 0122.4098, N, 10354.0212, E, 1, 04, 2.1, 71.4, M, 4.3, M,,0000*5F
Apart from the starting 5 alphabets which is the message ID, the other numbers are constantly changing every second. I wish to pick out specific values from these GPRMC and GPGGA and constantly update their respective text boxes, how do I go about doing that?
The 4th, 6th & 8th values of the GPRMC message (in this case '3723.2475' 10354.0208' and '1.26')The 10th value of the GPGGA message (in this case that value is '71.4')
how can i split the recieved data to my vb.net application and then save it, so for example whatever starts with e must be appended to a textfile and whatever starts with a must be display in the label.[URL]..

I have the following code that listens to a serial port and writes the incoming data to a listview control (the serial data are a delimited string taht arrives once per second that I parse into separate listview subitems). I would like to be able to close/disconnect the serial port once a specific value in the incoming string is detected. For example, in this case one of the columns of data in the incoming string represents depth, I would like to close the serial port when the depth falls below a given number. I have tried the code below, but my program crashes on the SerialPort.CLose method.

I am writing a small application to see what data I am sending and receiving to my COM port (for a small hardware project based on url..).The problem I want to activate a "Serialread" or "SerialWrite" procedure as soon as data is waiting in the receive or send buffer.I have some basic skills so before I start digging in I would like to get some advice. Can I use a addhandler (I have read something about this on the internet but have to clue how to use it) or something else? Is there a way to check if data is in the buffer ready to be read or write??
View 2 RepliesI am current using VS2008 to write a little app to transmit hex data via the serial port to the target device and receive back data from it and display that on a text box.
The problem i am facing is receiving "read" data "hex" back from the serial port and displaying it. I am able to send data to the target system without any problem. For example, if i send this command "&H10, &H0, &H1, &H7E, &HFF, &H49" The LEDs on the system blink 10 times and it works every time. If i send this command "&H10, &H0, &H0, &HFF, &HD" i should get 5E back and I use Realterm to verify the communication and it works great. When i use my VB app it fails, instead of getting back 5E.I get "&H35, &H45, &HD, &HA" on the buffer
Private Sub sendbutton_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles sendbutton.Click
Dim send_Buffer() As Byte = {&H10, &H0, &H0, &HFF, &HD}

I am writing a program to read data from the serial port using the data received event. But, I realised that My data received event run more than 1 time when there is a data received at the com port and this actually makes my reading command reads the wrong data. The correct procedure is whenever I send a "+++" over to my device. It should responses with "OK."message.
Why the DataReceived Event will read more than 1 time?

I'm having a bit of an issue receiving a stream of serial data and displaying the data real-time in my GUI. I am fairly new to VB.Here's what I'm trying to achieve: I have an I2C device (bank of LED's) connected to my Arduino. Using the VB.NET (2010) GUI I request which LED I want on (via buttons) and the I2C device then sends a reply confirming which LED actually turned on (basic feedback). Ok, sounds great right? Here's where I get issues. Well when I try to read the serial data sent to VB and display the real-time stream on the GUI, a) I get a bit of a mess as an output (values are ok, just spewn across GUI) and b) when I select a new LED to turn on, the GUI data does not refresh to this change. The stream being sent from the Arduino is ok, I looked at the data in a serial monitor.

Just simple as of right now for debugging purposes. I have a breakpoint at getMe and it doesn't hit it at all. I know for sure that the serial port should be receiving data as I am using RealTerm to monitor serial port input data before I run my program.
I am trying to write something through serial port to my device. Before that, I added the data received handler to read the data when the device response with some data. The problem now is how can i check the status of the data received event? I need to know when the data received event has started or has ended before I can proceed to do some other task like check if the result is successfully receive.

How can i monitor the HTTP data (headers including raw html data) that is sent and recieved while a user browses with a web browser control in my application?
is there some way to capture the connection itself into a socket?
I've been playing around with the TCP client/server sample code I found on [URL] but I can't seem to get it to function correctly. The problem I am having is that if I try to send data from the client a second time I get nothing back, not even an error that it couldn't send data. Every time I run the project it works the first time but that's it. When I was running the code line by line it seems to get to 'networkStream.Read(bytes, 0, CInt(tcpClient.ReceiveBufferSize))' and then it jumps over the rest of the routine.

I am building a simple proxy in server vb.NET and so far it has been successful, but then whenever i receive data from the internet and write it back to my browser's network stream using NetworkStream.Write the received data tends to come up slowly to my browser due to reasons i do not know of. But when I chain my application to another Proxy/listener on my local computer (e.g Privoxy), data seems to come up very fast to my browser. If anyone has an answer to this I would really love to know.btw here is the part of my code {subroutine} that receives data and forwards to my browser.
