Get Ip Address And Port Number Assigned By .net?
May 30, 2011I have 2 winforms, one acts as server (ie Winform:Server role) and another one as client (ie Winform: Client role). In my LAN setup, there are 6 PCs and these PCs connected to each other via a 8-port switch and each PC has more than 1 LAN card.
There is one PC running [Winform: Server role] and 5 others running the [Winform: client role]. In [Winform: Server role], I'm using following code to obtain local ip address and port number and the [Winform: Server role] will listen to all incoming TCP requests according to these auto assigned ip address and port number.
Dim Listener As System.Net.Sockets.TcpListener
Dim Client As New System.Net.Sockets.TcpClient
Dim Message As String = ""
[Code]....
I need to clarify my intention. My current approach to my intention maybe incorrect. I attempt to create a 'zero configuration client-server networking' and that is plug & play. The server will know where the client and vise versa. I know there is a program (i.e. MaxiVista) has done that exactly.
MaxiVista has 2 applications, i.e. server and client. Users only need to execute the server application in PC designated as server role and execute the client application in another PC designated as client role. Then the server will be able to find all executing clients in the same LAN.
My intention is just that. Plug and play 'zero configuration client-server networking' within the same LAN.

Apr 24, 2012I have a program that connect to 2 printers at the same time. Ribbon Printer and Label printer.
I have set the ribbon printer to be the default printer of the server so that normal document printing can be printed using it. This is very simple and i already finsih the code for it.
However i have a Parallel printer at Port LPT1 which i wish to use it to print label. I have search online but find no solution on how to open connection to LPT1 and print the document in coding.What i can find i only send a window command to the port LPT

Jun 18, 2012I've been trying to this application in Visual Studio 2010 to only write to the parallel port, so supposedly it would be a very easy task, and by all the tutorials in the internet i've seen before it really is! Although it throws me always the same error which is too generic and don't give enough information for me to solve it. I'm doing this using the "Inpout32.dll" library to make the communication between VB.NET and the port..

View 5 RepliesVS 2010 Writing To Parallel Port / Windows 7 64-bit
Mar 11, 2011Does anyone have experience writing data to the parallel port (printer port) in Windows 7 64-bit. I have been trying inpout32.dll, inpoutx64.dll and following all the info on http://www.highrez.co.uk/ and www.logix4u.net but can't get anything to work. I have an on-board parallel port at &H378 - not an add-on card - and have tried various modes in the BIOS (standard, ECP etc). I have a background in electronics so I am confident my testing methods are sound; I just cannot get a data bit to change state under program control. I need to send data to an 8-bit port on some 20th Century electronics so serial/USB interfaces are not really an option. There must be a way to control those 8 data bits in Windows 7, mustn't there?
View 14 RepliesWriting A String To LPT1, The Parallel Port?
Dec 18, 2011I have a fairly old radio receiver. (Icom R70) A friend and I have built an interface to control it from my computer. The interface is parallel. For me the interface is a black box. (My friend is the electronics specialist) In the description (25 years or more old) the statement to set a frequency and receive mode (like Am, FM etc) on the receiver is:print ".0:087330"
Today I am working in VB.Net and on Windows7 pro. I have already spent several days figuring out how to do this, but can't get it to work.I have found inpout.dll, but that does only allows me to write one byte at the time, and if I break up the above string and send nine individual characters, it does not work.
Communications :: Parallel Port Input State Change?
Apr 3, 2011What i want it to do is 'listen' to the lpt port, when a sensor is broken then display the time. there are two sensor to measure the time of the first and then the second sensor.How do i get VB to listen to the sensors which are on two different inputs of the lpt port and time stamp in micro seconds. I can get it to read the state of the input on mouse click but i need it to display the time in micro seconds when the input changes. i will then use the times from the two sensors to work out the time it took between both sensor changing.
