TCP Send String - No Example Of A Client With A Tcp Listener Built In?
Dec 23, 2011
I create a small program witch is a tcp client.I sent a asqii string to a tcp device over ethernet thads acts like a server.As soon as the device recieves the input string it will respond back with response data. The problem is i am not getting any response data back from the divice. The lenght of the string is max. 30 characters.When a use WireShark i see the reponse, but VB read nothing.I have read many threads with explenations about server/client connections but no example of a client with a tcp listener built in.I think thad the stream read is to late after the send instruction.
i have a task to create a TCP Server (a program that is listening on its network card interfaces for incoming data stream).I have search on the internet and i found that i can use two methods : Socket or TCPListener class.I have created an example for Socket class, but i wondering how could i test it? I need to check that if another computer in the network send some string data to the listener computer , then this message should be displayed.Here is the example from microsoft that i am using for TCP Server using Socket:
Public Shared Sub Main() ' Data buffer for incoming data. Dim data = nothingc[code]....
But it does not work because of the PORT setting.If in the TCP Server i have "Dim localEndPoint As New IPEndPoint(ipAddress, 0)" the client crashes, but if i change the port from any (0) to 11000 for example,the client works fine.Do you know why?
Later edit2:Maybe i should have started with this question:Which method is recommended for my scope?asynchronous or synchronous method ?
Hey guys, I am trying to send data from client to server (encrypted) and the string sent from the client is not the same as recieved from the server. I've been killing my brain for hours to get this to work but I cant manage. Im converting everything to Base64 string.
Client:
Public Sub SendMessage(ByVal msg As String) Try SyncLock myclient.GetStream sw = New IO.StreamWriter(myclient.GetStream)
When I use dll imports in my project and send the built .exe program to someone else,does he need to have the .dll file in his computer too?If he does, where should the .dll file be?-same folder as .exe programor- C:\Program Files (x86)\Reference Assemblies\Microsoft\Framework\.NETFramework\v4.0
Below is my code, but when i send the message thru client socket i receive Specified argument was out of the range of valid values. Parameter name: size
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Dim serverStream As NetworkStream = clientSocket.GetStream() Dim outStream As Byte() = _ System.Text.Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes("0800822000000000000004000000000000000920092126012345001")
how to create a client/server... But I couldn't... I don't want anything fancy. Just want the client to send the server 4 numbers, depending on the user's choice; after that, the server would turn off the pc, restart it, etc. It all depends on the number received. Is there a rather "simple" way to do it? If it's not to much trouble you could use Atheist's example. (Btw I don't understand the code and, yes, I've checked on [URL])
Ultimately, what I want to accomplish is an AJAX-based messaging system. I already have a database table for messages, and an ASPX to add new messages (and declare old messages no longer relevant).
The current messaging system simply polls the server every 15 seconds, and re-pulls the current message set.
What I am looking to do is: On $(document).ready(), register an ajax callback function that listens for a server-side event (e.g., MessagesUpdated) On table insert/update, fire MessagesUpdated server-side.
This way, whenever the table is updated (or new records added), any clients listening know that new data is available and can re-poll the server then.
Ideally, I'd also like to make the new data available as an event argument (to minimize re-polling the db).
I can find references to something like this in other languages, but I cannot find any actual code examples to get me started.
Assuming this is possible to do via .Net, can anyone help get me started on this?
I'm using the 2.0 Framework. Also while I added a VB.Net tag, I can read C# reasonably well, so please feel free to post in either language.
I have got the server app an the Client app Both Working to what i can see But My issue is i was only asked 4 days ago if i could add a Private msg and Whisper Feature as well as admin controls I have Done what i could to it then realised i have no idea how to only send the data to the selected client.
i have been working on a chat program Server side and client side i have most of the features i was asked to put in but then once i got most of the bugs out i noticed something the server admin could send whispers and alerts to single users but then when you try do do it on the client side it wont work so i looked through it all and found my issue the user list on the client is only a list of the names in server hash table so i was wondering how do i send the hashtable and all of its data E.G. user connection information to the client so that it can send commands to individual users like the server side can
vb Public clients As New Hashtable() ' This subroutine checks to see if username already exists in the clients ' Hashtable. If it does, send a REFUSE message, otherwise confirm with a JOIN.
[code]....
i tried to send the hashtable over the same method used to send the user names to the client but it cannot convert the hashtable to a string so that wont work so my question is How do i send the hash table to the user from the server then display the username on the client ??
Client/Server Application in vb.net 2010 i have created but it was just basic one. I need to show send data from client to sever and sever to client and and more functionality. (like showing price ot item or anything
I used a built in function to create comma separated string using List easily.(It is not split and join but new function) I'm not able to recollect or find it. If some one knows about it and uses it please post a link to that. Framework - .net 2.0
(It is not Join or split - I know about this, .net has new built in function to create CSV format)
Check Jacob G Answer below for what i was looking for let me know your thoughts on it compared to join ;)
And whoever gave me -ve rep need to keep some patience and not hurry
Is it possible to immediately use code that is built in a dynamically built assembly?I would like to create an instance of an ENUM built using.http:[url]......
I have programmed a chat application in VB but as soon as I send any data from a client the server will send it to all. It should send a reply only to a particular client. This is the function I have used.
I have a code here to send email, but its shows a error. Error : The SMTP server requires a secure connection or the client was not authenticated. The server response was: 5.5.1 Authentication Required.
Code: Dim smtpServer As New SmtpClient() ProgressBar1.Value = 10 Dim mail As New MailMessage() ProgressBar1.Value = 17 smtpServer.Credentials = New Net.NetworkCredential("myemailacc@gmail.com", "Password") [Code] .....
how to send mail via .net. However I do not seemlessly want to send the mail. I want a new mail message to open and I want to attach a file that i will export from crystal. So in short, It should use outlook on the client pc, open new mail, and add attachment. The user can then type custom message, and type email addresses.
After checking an Xps file i noticed that the string within the Xps file <> is converted to <>So is there any built-in function in the .Net framework that could do this job for me?If it does not exist what characters becides <> should i escape in myOwn function?
I try to implement a search within an xps file, but searching for <> instead of <> returns nothing.
UPDATE: At least i found the list here of xml document escape characters
I want to send a image file from server to client?i am using this code for sending but i can't send the image....... and i also need some receiving code.
1.Public Sub SendImage(ByVal sndImg As String) 2.Try 3.Dim ns As System.Net.Sockets.NetworkStream 4.Dim client As System.Net.Sockets.TcpClient
The client would need to be able to communicate with the server for several simple tasks, such as checking if the file on the client is different from the file on the server. Or issue a "create folder" command. And of course the file transfer itself.[code]...
Now i need to send separate packets from the server to the client.For the client I am using usual Tcp but for the server I am using Winsock Control. [code]...
I am trying to send an Arraylist over to my server to broadcast to all other clients but I am not sure after serializing it, how do I proceed to send across. [code]....
I'm trying to serialize an object so that I can send it over the internet to another client. There is 1 problem however I wrote the code and it threw an exception, I searched google to see what I had done wrong.
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.
