View 2 Repliesi 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 developed a chat application with an attendant chat server. Everything is working fine. The issue now is the fact that whenever the chat server goes down (for instance, the server system shuts down as a result of power failure or some other problem), by the time the server system come back on, the chat server would have to be restarted manually.
I believe (and I know) it is more appropriate for the chat server application to restart itself when the computer comes back on (and of course regardless of who is logged in and of course, even before anyone logs in). I have a batch file that executes the chat server. My attempt was to create a windows service that start automatically and runs this batch file using a Network Service account on the server system. Although, I'm having a hard time with this (temporarily), I would love to ask if there are any alternatives to using a windows service.
So, 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());

Multi-User Chat Program (Server & Client) with Main Server?
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to extract a piece of text from within the string, defining both a starting point and an ending point. For instance, say I want to search for the text found between "That is a " and " car" in the string "That is a red car", so it would return "red".I know you can use .SelectionStart and SelectionLength, but the length of the word can change, so the selection length can vary. What I want is to establish a specific starting point and a specific ending point from which to extract the text from the string.

View 3 RepliesI'm trying con build a simple chat client/software (whole in on executable) wich start listen from the start on the port 5900 and when a client connect to that port the chat is established.
The problem is that only the client can chat to the server, the server cannot answer the client because the connection is working in one way.The i've tried to connect from "server" to the client when it establishes a connection but the system crash warning me that the port is already on use.

I want to create a tcp/ip chat system using vb.net. I have created using vb6 using winsocks but unfortunately I couldnt find it in VB 2005. I have discussed with some friends about it and they also couldnt do it. I like to try something I dont know in this way I learn more. I want to create the in such a way that the client and server both have an interface and the client and server both have port text-boxes and the client has the host text box and the connect button.

View 1 RepliesI 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?
How would I use this for a chat client? I'm not sure where to even start and the internet is helping me find much about it.
View 4 RepliesI wrote a server for a tcp/ip chat program using the system.net.sockets class. When I run the program and the client tries to connect to it, there's an error and it won't work. I am positive that the issue isn't with the client, as I have made a connection with the client before.

Dim server As New TcpListener(IPAddress.Any, 60)

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.

View 2 RepliesI have google it but I couldn't find the answers. So basically I want to make a Client-Server chat. I just want to creating each server for the clients to entered the chat room with each different server, e.g: client 1 and client 2 entered chat server 1 (just a name of a room), client 3 and client 4 entered chat server 2 and so on. How I can do that?
View 5 RepliesSo with the stock Textbox, I set the Scrollbars property to Vertical. This is great if the text in my box never changes; I can scroll up and down while the box sits still. If I'm running a background operation that logs output to the box though, the scrollbar resets itself to the top every time I append text to the box.
I know I can set the Textbox.Selection property (or use the Select method) to reposition the carat in the textbox, make note of that position in a variable, then append text, reset the carat, and use the ScrollToCarat method to reposition the scrollbar where it belongs. That's a really (ridiculously) long way around. Anybody know if there's another/better way of holding the scrollbar position, short of actually building a custom control (or using a Textbox and a separate Scrollbar)? It never hurts to try. In a worst case scenario, you'll learn from it.
I'm developing chat program. I have database on my webhosting where I store rooms and memebrship tables... I created the client, but I still cant do the server side of the program. It must be in win forms app.(I use .Net 3.5)Every tutorialSample of server side is for Console app. Client code is very close to this(if somebody need it): LINK
