Am developing a server - client application using the system.net class , that will have more than 5000 simultenous client connection.what is the best way to manage multiple client connection like this?
View 3 RepliesI wrote a Socket Client which will send the Socket Server some data and get some response from Server. This process will be running once in every 2 seconds.
Now what I need to know is How we can identify the connection lost between Server and Client?
I need this to be implemented in the Client side. If there is no connection then Client should automatically close the connection. Once the connection with the server is available in the next attempt it should connect automatically.
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")

I have been struggling to find a solution for this problem. What I need to do is build a server application that accepts tcp client requests from different clients running on same port say:1003. I experimented by using asynchronous mode call backs etc. but it disconnects once connection is established and does not respond for further requests from the same client.
View 1 RepliesFor almost a week I am reading and trying to find a solution for checking connection state using a TCP Client (using socket class) In my scenario I have a TCP Client that is connected to a server (it is not controlled by me) and i want that from time to time to check the connection state, and reconnect if necessary.I have read a lot of information on the internet but i did not find a suitable solution.Briefly, these are the methods that i have found on the internet and try to implement.But unfortunatelly, i have found some scenarios where the TCP Server is closed and the TCP Client is still saying Connected 1.Example from MSDN

I want both the client and server to write and read resp. at a constant rate (which can be configured on the GUI of the client) to the buffer.I am able to send from the client at 150 bytes per packet Now, I should be able to read also at 150 bytes per packet on the server too Since, both are connected through a socket, can we retrieve the socket params (set on the client size, like 150 here) from the server end, using the tcpServer object.Or is it must to send an initial setup packet which tells about these client params and so accordingly the server can continue?
View 1 Replieswhat would be the best way to manage a connection to a database in asp.net.My application is built using an N-Tier architecture.The DAL consists of static classes with methods such as
Public Shared Sub Delete( _
ByVal connection As MyConnectionClass, _
ByVal contact_id As Integer, _
ByVal contact_timestamp As Date _
[code]....
The point to note here, is that I pass the connection to the DAL from the BLL.Should I create the connections in the MasterPage, store it in an object, then pass it to my business objects as I create them (the thing I'm trying to avoid)Should I create a connection using a static class and calling a method like CreateConnection on it, from the constructor of my business objects (Something I'd like, but I don't want to have a connection per object, I'd like it to be shared for all instances of my objects, but since asp.net is multi-threaded, a static class doesn't make sense to store connections) the solution should also work well in a Windows Forms environment (So no connection storing in session, and retrieving it with a static method in a class, for the current context)?
What is a good approach to managing a debug and release connection string in a .NET / SQLServer application?
I have two SQL Servers, a production and a build/debug and I need a method of switching between the two when my ASP.NET application is deployed.
Currently I simply store them in the web.config and comment one or the other out, however that is error prone when deploying.
I am a beginner programmer, and taking my first course in VB.NET in college. I am writing a program that teaches the user step by step to solve a rubiks cube. One problem I am having is how to manage the 20 forms that make up my program. Currently, when the user procedes to the next step, I make the current form invisible, and show the next form.
ex. Nextbutton click
form2.show()
me.visible = false

have been writing code to replace an old Fortran program. The Fortran program had very organized subroutines which could be called from anywhere in the project. Most of these were relatively small and left a small, easily followed main routine. I'm converting over to VB.net and when I write the subroutines they are all on the same form. Wading through 50-100 subroutines on one form is going to be messy.
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 am using the client/server classes for file transfer by moeur.what i want to know is that once my client is connected to the server and after that the client machine goes off the network. now when my server trys to send a file or some message to the client i am not able to trap the error that the client is disconnected.how to do this. there might be a case where the client machine suddenly shuts down. in such cases how will my server know that the client has disconnected.
View 2 RepliesI'm working on a simple socket client application that transfers files from one PC to another. The flow is as follows.
Client sends message to Server
Client Listens for response
Server responds with command
Client sends file or message to Server
Client Listens for response
This sequence will repeat thousands if not tens of thousands of times. It runs great on my dev box but when I load it on another machine I get a StackOverFlowException. I know why I'm getting the stack overflow. It's because I have a Listen subroutine that calls a Send routine. When the Send routine is done it calls the Listen routine again. The process works for about 614 iterations and then bombs out with a stack overflow. I guess my question is, how can I code a socket application that can send-->listen-->send-->listen thousands of times without blowing the stack?
how to access client side activity i.e. which client is connected and which computer connected at the same time from server.
View 1 RepliesI want to implement the TCP KeepAlive in order to check dropped connections by running a timer.

I'm trying to build a multithreaded SMPP client with VS2008 and I'm getting bogged down in threading. Basically my main parent thread will interact with the windows service scheduler, get registry settings, and get a list of SMPP servers to connect to. Then it will launch a thread for each SMPP connection, which will need to keep it's TCP socket open to receive messages with, so the thread must remain running even if there aren't any events happening (no messages to receive)... but I can't seem to get it figured out.
[Code]...
The Start sub in the oChannel object does run, but once that sub is finished running the thread ends. In the Start sub, it calls other code that initiates a connection to the remote SMPP server, but that code asynchronously waits for an event to be raised regarding the connection status. Once the sub finishes, the async connection being attempted doesn't seem to be able to pin the thread down.
I currently have an If...Then statement that checks if all fields of a form have been filled before saving the info in a file. I'd like to be able to tell which field has not been filled to give the user a dynamic message (at the moment, it only tells them that the checklist is not completed ) :
If (txtNoDemande.TextLength = 8 _
Or txtNoDemande.TextLength = 13 _
And txtDateLoad.TextLength <> 0 _

Is there a way to determine which of these conditions is false without having to do a seperate If statement for each ?

<%@ Page Language="vb" AutoEventWireup="false" CodeBehind="index.aspx.vb" Inherits="Web_Socket.index" %>

I'm running into an issue where I have a lot of AsyncSends going on with dozens of client sockets, and at the moment if any remote client stops receiving but doesn't actually disconnect, the app quickly eat sup all of the SocketAsyncEventArgs (aka an sae) I have preallocated because they're not released since the SendAsync is not completing. The obvious solution to this is to implement a per-client send queue, which sounds easy enough but I am unclear as to the specifics. I have one sae allocated per client to receive, which works perfect, and ideally I'd love to allocate a single sae to the client's async sends.
I understand popping in and asking a question that is veiled request for a 'give me code' solution is looked down upon, but I honestly have not been able to turn up a lot, either on the .XAsync methods, which Microsoft has a horribly poor example for, nor for a send queue in general.
Edit for @J.N.
I forgot to mention it, but I -am- actually using a bunch of preallocated sae's stored in a managing class that internally uses a ConcurrentBag. With one connection, in a test scenario where 20 small messages are sent per second (this is slightly more than double how many messages would actually be sent in the production server), the server eats up 500 preallocated sae's in a few seconds. If I implement 'create if empty' code, the sae count quickly climbs into the thousands.
I understand the functionality that the async methods of the Socket class provides, but if there's a network hiccup or something similar, this issue will outright bomb the server within seconds. A send queue sounds like an great solution, but I have no idea whether it's a good idea to do in a high performance production environment or not.
The base problem remains, though, that with a dozen messages per second per client being sent out, any network congestion or other factor that lags the connection but does not disconnect it will quickly deteriorate into a laggy mess.
I think a solution I might be looking for is something that locks up the single sae being used for sending until the completion callback is reached, where that sae is then unlocked and then reused to send any pending data. The actual implementation of it eludes me though.
I am Working on Teghax Component.Using This Component we want to find out Block title attribute of dwg file in a client server socket application.

I am working on a chat client and server, and so far it works well, but when I close the client, the server throws an exception because it continues to try to do processes on the disconnected client. I have tried adding clientSocket.Close() in various places throughout the client and server with no luck. Does someone know how to add the disconnect code to either the server or client with this code?Server:

I am facing problem in asynchronous socket communication.
1)I wanted to perform connect(from client to server) operation on enter button and send the data whatever client want to send and disconnect from server. And again client should get connect to server whenever client wanted to send data. this is the mechanism.
i.e how to reuse the socket.
2)Again Server should able to send the data to client.
I am using socket programming in vb.net to create a server client remoting application. The problem occurs when I use both the client and server in a win 7 box. It works fine for win xp or cross-platform communication (e.g. win xp to win 7). Below are the codes used at the client and server end:

I'm working on an application that communicates to torque controllers on the factor floor. The user inputs an IP address and a port and clicks the btnConnect button to make the initial connection. Once that completes a KeepAlive message must be sent periodically to maintain communication with the torque controller. The initial connection works very well but a socket error (see below) grinds everything to a halt when the KeepAlive message is sent. I would appreiciate any ideas the readers may have on the root cause. I'm quite confused because basically the same code is use for both the initial connection and then the KeepAlive messages. I have pasted some of the code as well below.

I have created a Client that can send and receive data via TCP sockets. The objects stored on the serverside are the *exact* same object used for the client. They use the same send and receive protocols.
Now, when i send a string from the server to the client , it does precisely what it should do. However when I send a string to the server.... I do receive the string as an equal length of NULL characters. I run the server and client locally.
Basicly what can influence the behaviour between two completely identical objects performing the exact same task? I wonder if there is some socketflag issue if the TCPlistener.accept function returns a completely different setup then the one I R used to.
(if it is of any interest, the send protocol is asynchronious)
