I am developing a Door Access Control System which talks the hardware's firmware via TCP/IP. The first version was a success and done using VB6 Winsock Control 6.0. Currently, I am doing the second version in VB.NET and the pain is with the socket. Winsock Control 6.0 is such a blessing (finally admitted) Does anyone know the default encoding of Winsock Control 6.0 in VB6 so that I can set it exactly to the encoding for socket in VB.NET. ANSI (VB.NET) seems to work (but not fully tested with the hardware), but is there something more specific?

View 2 RepliesI have a user app written in VB which up till now has relied on winsock to connect to another device we have. The user app logs onto the device and then send / receives status reports from it which are used to set the controls on the apps forms.
This has all worked well for a long time but I'm now looking to move away from Winsock as I know it's not 'the right way' to do things and I also need to be able to send non ascii characters between the app and the device it's connected to (implementing multi language support).
The issue is with Winsock it would simply throw the DataArrival event when a message was received and I could then process the message and act upon it. When using a TcpClient socket connection I'm running into problems as all responses are on the socket thread which means I can't simply change controls on the main form without using the Invoke check.
What I want to be able to do is have the thread running the TcpClient simply alert the main form thread when it receives data and make that data available to the main thread so it can start processing it and triggering all the other functions etc required (these also interact with the Form). Whilst this is happening the TcpClient monitors any further messages and sends response messages as requested from the main thread.
