TSocket Question

[PeterHarmes]

Hi,

I'm trying to connect to a windows socket & although my test routine is working, I dont seem to be able to check if i'm connected.

I have a public variable called lConnected that is initially set to .F. - this is set to true in bConnect, but when i try to reference it, it always returns .f. - the senddata & getdata routines all work fine.

Is there a better way to detect if i'm connected?

Code: Select all

STATIC FUNCTION SocketTest 
    LOCAL mTimer   := 0
    PRIVATE oSocket  := TSocket():New(8888)

    oSocket:bRead := { | oSocket | Msginfo( oSocket:GetData() )  }
    
    oSocket:bConnect := { || lConnected := .T. }

    oSocket:Connect( "192.168.69.92" ) // use the server IP address here
    
    DO WHILE !lConnected .AND. mTimer < 999999
        mTimer++
    ENDDO
    
    IF lConnected
        oSocket:SendData( "Hello" )
    
        ThreadSleep(1000)
        IF MsgYesNo("Quit?")
            RETU NIL 
        ENDIF 
    ELSE 
        ? "Not Connected" 
    ENDIF 
RETURN NIL

 

Thanks in advance

Pete

Hi,

Anyone have any ideas?

Best regards,

Peter,

FWH Class TSocket requires that there is a defined main window. There is no need to wait in a loop.

Please review FWH\samples\sockcli.prg

Hola Antonio,

Eso que comentas de la clase TSocket es aplicable a la clase HB_WhatsApp?

Para enviar WhastApp con la clase que menciono, debería funcionar desde un entorno MDI?
