Socket programming vs webservices

1 New Member
Hi,
Can someone provide comparison for using socket prgramming vs web services.
I'm particularly interested on bandwidth/traffic usage such as the overhead required by webservices and battery usage for several connection/disconnection required by webservice vs maintaining connection with socket.
Thanks

I wrote a .NET/c# webservice which I then needed to consume from java server pages. The simplest ( and best ) solution I found, was some code to open a socket, and send a SOAP message directly to it...constructing the SOAP message with a class that builds the string. Then I parse the return soap message for the result. Now I wonder, can I do the same thing in a c# client. All I want to do is

Hi all, I am not sure that I am posting this in the right group but here it goes anyway. I am new to socket programming and I have been searching on the internet to the questions I am about to pose but have been unsuccessful in finding the answers so far. Either because my understanding of sockets isn't where it needs to be or my questions are too basic. My programming environment is Windows XP, Visual Studio .NET 2003 and C#. So here it...

Thanks to everyone that responded to my previous Socket Programming question. Now I have run into some behavior that I don't quite understand. Programming environment. VS.NET 2003, C#, Windows XP. About the architecture: I have a socket server dll that contains a class that handles connections for a given local ipaddress and port. This class(server) can be started or stopped by calls to the appropriate functions. The server class has...

The code below is what I am using to asynchronously get data from a PocketPC device. The data comes in fine in blocks of 1024 bytes but even when I send no data from the PocketPC constant blocks of 1024 with all values set to Null arrive. Other than examine a block of 1024 to see if the entire block is null, is there any other way to determine if , say a chat message "Hi Charlie" has been received completely?

I read a network programming book (based on framework 1.1) which indicated that you should 'never' use the RecieveTimeout or the SendTimeout 'socket options' on TCP sockets or you may loose data. I now see the socket.RecieveTimeout 'property' in the visual studio 2005 help documentation (framework 2.0) and it has example of it being used with TCP socket. This propery is also listed as 'new in .net 2.0'. 1) is the socket.RecieveTimeout...

Hai, I am new to VB.Net programming, directly doing socket programming. In C, I will be able to map the message arrived in a socket directly to a structure. Is this possible in VB.Net. Can anyone please help me with some sample codings and guidance? Can you also suggest some other news group available for socket programming in VB.Net?

Hi, In an attempt to create a full-blown webcrawler I've found myself writing a wrapper around the Socket class in an attempt to make it completely async, supporting timeouts and some scheduling mechanisms. I use a non-blocking approach for this, using the call to 'poll' to support the async mechanism - rather than the 'begin' and 'end' functions. I already found that connecting doesn't set the "isconnected" variable correctly...

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. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

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,...
