IPEndPoint

[James Proctor]

Hi there, im trying to write a application that has some
socket stuff in. Ive only don socket stuff in vb 6
before. In .net i was using IPEndPoint and i want to
enter an ip address and port like so:

IPEndPoint = New IPEndPoint("192 .0.0.01",1000)

But its asking for the IPaddress to be a long. How do i
convert it or put in an IP address of my choice. Hope
someone can help me out.

Regards

James

The constructor is overloaded.

James,

Try:

Dim IPHost As IPHostEntry = Dns.Resolve(m_s HostName)
Dim Aliases() As String = IPHost.Aliases
Dim Addr() As IPAddress = IPHost.AddressL ist

IPEndPoint = New IPEndPoint(Addr (0), 1000)

m_sHostName can be an IP address or URL.

There is an overloaded ctor available which expects an IP Address:

\\\
Public Sub New(IPAddress, Integer)
///

Dim ep As IPEndPoint = New IPEndPoint( _
IPAddress.Parse ("192.0.0.01 "), 1000)
