Socket Server which stores information on each of the client

aplaton101

What is the best way to create a TCP Server which receives
connections from several sockets and stores information that will be
used for the next connection from each of the sockets. How can I
determine each time which of the socket has made the connection? (the
address of the client socket is not good enough for me because
sometimes the connections are made from several sockets on the same
computer)

1) if connection count is low (i.e. less then 700), then you could start a
new thread with each socket. The socket stays connected with tcp, so you
only need the socket object to talk and refer back to the client.
2) After accept, put the socket object in an arraylist or collection object.
Then have some worker thread(s) servicing the queue/list.

#1 is the easest for server design as the model is easier to program. You
would be well off to get a good book on sockets and server design.

VB.NET Socket - Multiple clients to server

by: User | last post by:

Hi, I tried to find the information over the internet but didn't find any answers. I'm looking for a server side code example of winsock accepting many clients. I know that in VB.NET it is not implemented like in VB6. What I've done is one client per socket. Meaning that each client used a different port on the server, but I find it annoying.

Socket connection

by: Sharon | last post by:

Hi all. I'm trying first time async socket connection. In all the examples i've seen, the server connection is closed when the message is complete. Is it common to close the connection after every message? Also, the message is complete, meaning there is no more data to read, only when the client closes the connection. My solution is to keep the connection open, and send a terminator / eof at the end of every message. Is it the right...

Identifying client that sent data to Asynchronous socket.

by: Macca | last post by:

My app has an asynchronous socket server. It will have 20 clients connected to the server. Each client sends data every 500 millisecondsThe Connections once established will not be closed unless there is a problem with the connection. I need to know which client has sent the incoming data as each client has its own buffer on my "server" app. I am using the standard asynch socket code from MSDN to listen for connections and they...
