I've been attempting to create a Chat client/server for a while and I found some good tutorials for Visual Basic Express 2008. But I would like my client to be able to disconnect and have the server acknowledge the fact (and send the same message that it does when someone connects) that a client disconnected.

Multi-User Chat Program (Server & Client) with Main Server?
View 1 RepliesTCP Server/Client - Disconnecting Sockets
View 3 RepliesSo, in another related post, i got the chat to send to a java server, cool.Now, it's a matter of sending it back to VB.on the server side of things, (in java), I am using the following
JAVA
public static void sendback(String what2send) throws IOException {
ObjectOutputStream oos = new ObjectOutputStream(mySocket.getOutputStream());
[code]....
I recently got into this article. It makes a chat server and people can connect to it like an AIM. The problem how would I disconnect from the server from the client. Because if I close the client application when its connected to the server it will crash the server as well. Please let me know if anyone has any solutions.

View 2 Repliesim trying to make a little application that will read an fps server chat log.the chat logs are plain text files that come in the format :
Billy says: yada yada yada
Bob says: mooo
on certain key phrases (which will be user defined) it will reply (also user defined) now my problems. (there are many). most of which stem from not actually knowing any syntax for this language.firstly im suffering something of a huge brain fart with trying to read only the last line. i have it currently reading though the whole file and counting line numbers but then i just hit a wall . what do i do with the line number? i cant find a simple way to stop and come then have it check again after a couple of seconds for a new line? allegedly filestream can seek the end of the file however all my attempts to do anything with filestream have met with absolutle failure.
this is what i currently have for this, and it works to some degree
FileReader = New IO.StreamReader(OpenFileDialog1.FileName)
Do While FileReader.Peek <> -1
txtln = FileReader.ReadLine()
[code]....
i have the remnants of both the options ive considered in there, and its almost doing what i need it to . i just have no idea what to put into the last section to make it wait for another line to be added to the text file, or use the linenumber to make it check back from there for more lines. i cant seem to find a wait/sleep/pause so i just dont know.
my other problem is one of file access. i am aware of some properties of filestream that allow for a shared read/write access for other programs . however as i stated before . i have had no success even getting this simple peice of code to work with filestream.
I am trying to create a simple chat server over vb that can relay messages back and forth using an echo server. Could someone point me in the correct direction to begin?
View 3 RepliesIm using the code from [URL] as a starter, most of the code is the same. the chat system works fine but on the client a added a disconnect button "clientSocket.Close()" and as soon as i click that i get errors, on the client, this is the code...
Private Sub getMessage()
For infiniteCounter = 1 To 2
[CODE]...
And this line...
serverStream.Read(inStream, 0, buffSize)
gives me "Unable to read data from the transport connection: A blocking operation was interrupted by a call to WSACancelBlockingCall."
Now im talking the server, after the client clicks disconnect or closes by task manager, looses connection, etc the server crashes and gives me.
i have made a client and server chat system in VB 2008 with winsock,it's a one to one chat and works perfect fine, but do anyone know how to turn it into a multi-client chat system? Code in below: Here is the code for the server:
[Code]...
I am working on the client-server on my application and I am unsure which one of those method that I should use for the chat server. When I tried this:
Dim port As Int32 = 13000
Dim localAddr As IPAddress = IPAddress.Parse("127.0.0.1")
server = New TcpListener(localAddr, port)[code].....
I found that both of these methods are the same, I can connect to the server when I use either of them. tell me which one of them is the easy way and which one of them that I should use to connect to the server, send message...etc?
I have been searching for days and months on youtube,google and everywhere else about how to create a Multi user chat system, where everybody can talk to each other all at once. Some people say Winsock is the way to go and others say TCP/IP is the way to go. I have little to no experience in either one of them. So if somebody can give me a really great turtioal or show me the guide lines on how to create a server and a client I would highly appreacite it. I am using Visual Basic 2008 express.

View 14 RepliesThe server connects, the clients connect, one client sends a message to the server, and the server broadcasts it to the other clients. But what I want to do now is to also have the server communicate with the clients. But when I click on the server form, it freezes, and I cant do nothing.
I think this is because of me not creating a thread for the communication(I saw this on another forum), but I dont know how to do that. I copied basically all the chat program code from a site, and I dont know much of sockets and what not.
