Problem about Socket

[kcynic]

I create a stream socket and start listening immediately. But when I use "netstat -a" command in the cmd window,the socket's port would not be shown in the list.The sample code only like below: CSocket listenSocket; if(listenSocket.Create(0,SOCK_STREAM)==TRUE) { SOCKET port=listenSocket.m_hSocket; if(listenSocket.Listen(10)==FALSE) cout<<"Listen Failed!"<

Is your listenSocket variable going out of scope? Mark

because you use listenSocket.Create(0,SOCK_STREAM) create listen socket, "0" means the server listen port is random number. this random number is also shown in the "netstat -a" list. If you use listenSocket.Create(8000,SOCK_STREAM), the listen socket port will be fixed 8000. try "netstat -a" command you will find the listen port is 8000.

No,the socket is the member of the class

But,if I change to Create() and listen,the problem remain so. Thanks

Try something like Create(2500, SOCK_STREAM) and see if there's a socket listening on port 2500. Mark

But my real work is to create a listen socket and report the listening port to others then other client can to connect to the listening socket. Thanks. GOOD LUCK
