View 2 RepliesSystem Namespace Conflict With Sibling Namespace
Nov 16, 2011This class is located in the namespace Acme.Infrastructure.Interface.A class with the same name EventArgs exists in the System namespace.In another project in my solution I have a class Acme.BusinessModules.MyModule.MyClass.When attempting to use the EventArgs class I have to fully qualify the class name or the compiler thinks I am using the System.EventArgs class.My understanding of namespace resolution was that the compiler would first look for the class in the current namespace, and then its parents. It seems that the compiler checks in System before it checks in sibling namespaces. Is it correct that System is checked before the sibling? Or is this behaviour caused by other issues (Imports order?)?
View 1 RepliesAsync Sockets Client-server?
Jul 25, 2011I'm using vb .net 2008 with 3.5 framework. (the following 2 classes are put in a DLL that i import in a main application)
Server class:
Code:
Imports System.Xml
Imports System.Net.Sockets
Imports System.Text
Imports System.Net
[code]....
Basically in my main application i am instantiating the client class from this dll, as well as the server one. On the client form i got a "send data" (SendFISA sub) and a "connect" button. After connecting the client and clicking on the "send data" i am sending to the server a string formed of some information created when instantiating the client class from the dll (i can't make that type of data public, but i'm just using a constructor to assign values to a class object, nothing special).
Now, when the server receives the data sent by "send data" button click it responds with "PKG_SENT" corresponding to the "FISASENT" string terminator(in the module) of the string that was sent. The "WRONG_MSG" constant is for when the string terminator is different from the 2 from above.
On the local disk, if the server cannot be reached, the client saves an xml file with this data. In the dll i made a timer that ticks every 5 seconds and checks to see if there is any xml file on the disk and sends it to the server if the connection is ok (trimiteXML sub). The server would respond with "XML_SENT" corresponding to the string terminator "XMLSENT"(in the module) appended to the read string from the xml file. After the file is sent it is deleted from the local dir.
The problem occurs when i click "send data" AND there are XML files to be sent from the disk. I believe they are interpreted by the server somehow at the same time because the message is neither "PKG_SENT" nor "XML_SENT", but it becomes a combination of the "WRONG_MSG_TYPE" and "XML_SENT", "XML_SENTG_TYPE". I have no idea why this is happening and i basically want the socket to wait with sending the files from the disks until the "send data" finishes.
C# - Client Side Sockets Library
Nov 30, 2009Be able to instantiate the object and hook up the MessageReceived and ConnectionChanged events (or ones with similar purposes). Be able to send data (duh) When data is received, it fires the MessageReceived event on the same thread that the object was created on (this would be nice, but not absolutely required). Have a blocking and non-blocking options for connecting and possibly sending data.

Jul 31, 2011i have this code from msdn and added some of mine..

' Get the listener that handles the client request.
Dim listener As TcpListener = CType(ar.AsyncState, TcpListener)
' End the operation and display the received data on

Dim clientData As String = Encoding.ASCII.GetString(bytes)
MsgBox(clientData)
' Signal the calling thread to continue.
tcpClientConnected.Set()
End Sub 'DoAcceptTcpClientCallback
now the question is how can i put the clientdata from a listview?
i tried to put the listview control in this shared sub but i always got an error..
Quotecannot refer to an instance member of a class from within a shared method or shared member initializer without an explicit initializer of the class

Sep 22, 2009i have lots of confused ideas like should you transfer files using tcp? Example: I was thinking, I connect to server from client, open file in binary, division by packet size(bytes), send first packet to server, get request if file was delivered succesfully, send next packet. If I do it this way i would need something to know/increase packet size.

View 7 RepliesVS 2008 Client Server - Communicating Over Sockets
Aug 10, 2011I am building a client-server type applications and they are communicating over sockets. This is the first time I am doing such a program and I have been learning off a web example and thought I understood it all but it would appear I am missing something as it starts to work then errors. Here is what I have:
VB
Dim serverSocket As New TcpListener(ListeningPort)
Dim clientSocket As TcpClient
Dim netStream As NetworkStream
Dim BytesFrom(1024) As Byte
Dim DataFromClient As String
[Code] .....
All of the above works and if I open up a telnet command window I can connect to my machine running this code on my specified port and in the command prompt window 'IDENTIFY' appears as it should from the above code. But it then gets to this block an errors on the second line:
VB
'RECEIVE FROM CLIENT
netStream = clientSocket.GetStream()
netStream.Read(BytesFrom, 0, CInt(clientSocket.ReceiveBufferSize))
DataFromClient = System.Text.Encoding.ASCII.GetString(BytesFrom)
Now as far as I can tell it shouldn't be processing the first line
[ netStream = clientSocket.GetStream() ]
Until I send something back from the client because then going on to the second line its trying to process something that isn't there yet.
The actual error I get is:
Specified argument was out of the range of valid values. Parameter name: size
On the line:
netStream.Read(BytesFrom, 0, CInt(clientSocket.ReceiveBufferSize))

View 2 RepliesCommunications :: Socket Behaviour - Created A Client That Can Send And Receive Data Via TCP Sockets
Aug 26, 2010I have created a Client that can send and receive data via TCP sockets. The objects stored on the serverside are the *exact* same object used for the client. They use the same send and receive protocols.
Now, when i send a string from the server to the client , it does precisely what it should do. However when I send a string to the server.... I do receive the string as an equal length of NULL characters. I run the server and client locally.
Basicly what can influence the behaviour between two completely identical objects performing the exact same task? I wonder if there is some socketflag issue if the TCPlistener.accept function returns a completely different setup then the one I R used to.
(if it is of any interest, the send protocol is asynchronious)
Build A Chat/IM Client For An Office Network?
Jan 26, 2011If I decide to build this, this would probably be my first "large" project i've ever done myself.What I am looking to build is a very simple Chat/IM client to use for the users in our office network. It would just call us their Windows logon name and use that to IM and the like. I'm talking a very simple client, with a list of names of people who are logged into the network, and option to IM them and an option to do a multiple user chat. It doesn't have to be visually stunning.
