I'm having problems retrieving the full source code of a website (it only returns partial source) with TCPClient. My code is below if you could either correct it or lead me on the right path, it would make my day. [code]
View 5 RepliesI'm having a hard time getting the fundamentals down about these TCP Socket classes.
When you use TcpClient, you can set the IP Address or domain name to connect to the server end of the socket. I see examples that use "localhost" as the first parameter for TcpClient. Is this just a broadcast over the network to find the server that has a TcpListener listening on the dictated port of the second parameter of the TcpClient declaration? With any IP address for TcpClient (I realize that's an option, though), how does "localhost" find the TcpListener server?
Code:
Private Function web_scan(ByVal code As String) As String
Dim myReg As Net.HttpWebRequest = _
DirectCast(Net.WebRequest.Create(ServerSelect.Text & "/scanner.php?code=" & code), _

I need to give a variable to php file via GET and recive responce. HttpWebResponse dosen't work on my PocketPC so I need n alternative.
Is there a way to ping an IP address from VB.NET and store the response times?

View 2 RepliesWhen you Use Socket.Send Ether in VB6 with the Winsock control or Vb.Net sockets / Windows API does it generate that if you send "Hello" that on the other side it will get the Full Message Before the Data Arrival event is triggered??Or is it possible it can get it in two Different events like "He" & "llo" and a Last question, TCP is stream oriented, is there a Protocol that is Message Oriented but is wrapped with TCP, if not what is a good Delimitor to use with TCP, Usually ide use &H1 OR &H0 but I assume &H0 is common.. or Should I just add a Length Param before each Packet I send..?Now if thats the case and I got the Delimitor route... What if Im sending Chunks of 8192 of a File in a while loop and on a different thread I send a Command if I use the Length Param isent there a huge chance that the messages will get sent like this

BUT the issue lies as it thinking that only the 3 of 4 of the incomming file Frames are getting Recv due to it not knowing which frames are for which. Mainly due to me sending a big burst and on the other side recving random chunk sizes on the other side.Edit: Got another question, If I send two bytes across the internet via TCP, will they ever arrive as two different I belive the term is Frame or is that only when they exceide the size of the MTU will the Message be Split. The reason why is if I send a Header saying SOH, Length Of Message(2Bytes), thats 3 bytes can I say 100% of the time the computer on the otherend will recv that all at once so I can parse it? And What ever happen to Flush for Winsock?
I have a .Net program that has to run on a cluster of server 2008. To find out the right IP I resolve the dns by GetHostEntry(VarDefinedInfConfig).AddressList(0)
but when I am converting my old code (this code picks the wrong IP) dns.GetHostName().AddressList(0) => this returns a virtual IP and not the right one.So I changed my TcpListener to (dns is parameter from config)Dim listener As TcpListener = New TcpListener(New IPEndPoint(Net.Dns.GetHostEntry(dns).AddressList(0), 8001))
listener.Start()

I have made quite a nice and tidy little game. Its based around space invaders and works quite well. however because i have finished my college project almost 2 weeks ahead of the assignments release date, my tutor has asked me to tweak my project and make it better.So far i have added a full main menu to the game and a full splash screen. I would like to add in a section for recorded high scores but have no idea how to attempt this at all.
View 3 RepliesI am using VB2008 Express and am curious how to send a command via RS232 communications. The string that I need to send is 02h PON 03h. The start and end bits are 02h and 03h.
How can I convert 02h and 03h to its ascii form. In hyperterminal, I use the sequence {(hold)ALT 0 0 2} on the number pad to send the start bit.
I am using this code currently without the start and end bits

i made a tcp/ip application using the .NET TcpListener class, my problem is that sometimes (about 30 / 4000) the connection between the client and the server got interrupted in the middle and the server response to the client is lost.is there a way to know if the server response was successfully sent to the client without the client response back?
View 9 RepliesSo how does one turn SSL on in System.Net.Sockets.TcpClient with VB.NET code?
Turning it on in System.Net.Mail.SmtpClient is easy, you set the .EnableSsl property. I cannot find a corresponding property in TcpClient. It's probably buried somewhere.
During development, we usually use localhost as the hostname, like the following
Dim serverListener As New TcpClient("localhost", 8585)
I want the user to be able to enter their IP address via a TextBox instead, like
Dim serverListener As New TcpClient(textbox1.text, 8585)
However, this is not working for me.
I am creating an application that will be talking over the LAN (and eventually, WAN) which uses the Tcplistener and Tcpclient objects.Now, I have this working absolutely fine locally using the loopack address although when I change the IP of the listener to 0.0.0.0 (listening for all IPs) and the IP in the client application, to the IP of the server, it throws an exception when connecting. The client says something along the lines of the the server has rejected the incoming connection. So i disabled all firewalls temporarily but I still have the problem.I have ran netstat on the server which clearly shows that it is listening for an incoming connection on 0.0.0.0. [code]
View 5 RepliesI have an application in vb.net which will connect with an hardware device and test its functionality. The hardware device basically spits out data continuosly through Ethernet. That is it recieves some data via com ports and spits out the processed data via ethernet.So my application does both. Thats pretty much the entire app.My problem is i am using tcpclient sockets. Now when i connect a tcpclient to the device using
tcpclient.open(ip,port);
Immediately the device sends some data which comes and get stored in the clientsocket. Then i send a command to it ,only then i read the data from the clientsocket using
tcpclient.getstream().read()
at this time the entire data that is the one which flowed immediately when connected to the device and the one that i actually need after passing command is both acquired. This is undesirable. I need the data which i read only after sending the command. So i was wondering if there is any way to clear the tcpclient socket before we do a read. The manual doesnt show any such method.
I want to create an array of tcpclient 1 to 5. i know it can be done by arralist but how i will add array of socket in arraylist and send/receive data.

View 2 RepliesI have been reading the following thread by perito which was resolved with a great deal of assistance from Athiest.[url]...
Using the sample code in this thread I have now created a Client and Server app which is successfully sending messages over a network between two machines.
Now that I am able to send simple text messages I would like to progress to my intended pratice of sending more complex information between the machines. I have already written a program which generates and stores data with a class which I use as a data type. I would like to be able to pass this class from one machine to another.
i've a simple question: is possible to send dataset through TcpClient
View 3 RepliesMy tcp client has made a connection to the server script! Now that it has connected, how can it send a simple string? I do not know what any of the overloads for the .Client.Send method even mean, or how to use them. I already have a system set up on the server side to parse the string when it is received on the server side, but I have no idea how to send a simple string to it.

View 3 RepliesI am making a contact management program that works like a chat conversation. First, the client connects with his/her name and says: GIVE_INFO. Then, the server sends the client's info that it gets from a csv. Finally, when the user makes all desired changes, the client "tells" the server the info separated by commas and the server replaces the information in the old csv with the new info.So, the program worked for 2-3 times then all of a sudden when I made some changes it stopped working[code].......

View 2 RepliesI'm using the code below to send large strings (500kB) to a server. I'd like to show the upload speed and in order to do that, I need to calculate the amount uploaded every second.
In a Timer that fires every second I get the BytesUploaded, divide it by 1024 in order to get KiloBytes (kB/s) and show it to the user. Then I set BytesUploaded to 0 and one second later do the same process.
The uploading is done asynchronously and the size of the data is added to BytesUploaded at once. This means that BytesUploaded is not being updated in a constant flow and has a totally different value almost every second.
