VC6 and VC2008 Socket Compatibility

27 New Member
Hi,

I have an VC2008 (C++) app that reads data from a VC6 app using CArchives
over sockets using regular socket reads. On my local computer when I send
the packets to 127.0.0.1, it reads it with no issues. On a blank "test"
computer with .NET 3.5, VC++ redist, and both applications installed, the
local (127.0.0.1) test doesn't work. The VC6 app simply cannot detect the
open port of the VC2008 app. No error messages on the VC2008 app. Are there
some extra libraries that need to be installed? I'm pretty sure if I install
VS2008 on the "test" machine, it'll work, but that defeats the purpose.

Thanks!

Is there a difference in the firewall set-ups of the 2 computers.

I checked that, made sure Windows firewall was disabled. No other programs running (e.g. Symantec, McAfee). I have a test program that is written in VC6 that communicates fine using the CArchive across the network with different computers.

Hi, How do I change the place where the mysql socket file gets created? I thought it was in the my.cnf file by changing the "socket" property. However, using MySQL 5.0 on my Fedora Core 5 Linux system, when I do this and restart, attempting to connect to MySQL through PHP gives me this error Warning: mysql_connect() : Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (2) in

Hello! I am new to network programming, and understand just basics. Using some sample code, and having read documentation, I managed to create a simple app in C# and VB.NET. The application is supposed to do the following: monitor ALL INCOMING TCP traffic on the local computer, and save certain parts of it as files - not log files though, but actual files that are sent to the computer as part of http or ftp. Basically if a user browse a page...

I've used phpinfo() to confirm settings for mySQL on our host server, and it's not returning accurate info. phpinfo() returns a mySQL client API version of 3.23.54 (uselss for me), where as a SELECT VERSION() query on the mySQL database returns version 5.0.27 (exactly what we need). I think there's something wrong with the mySQL library in PHP. Is there any more thurough method of seeing php's settings for mySQL? Obviously I don't...

Hi folk, I'm trying to install latest OpenSSL version in VS2008 Express Edition on WinXP.

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
