C# window app to listen multiple port simultaneously..
-
Hi!! Hello every one... I wanted to know what should i do to keep on listening to multiple ports for msgs and displaying on respective text boxes. i've tried asych sockets. but cant get it right.. it listens for only one time. if i start a while loop the whole app stops responding.. i hope threading is a answer but i know nothing abt it.. plz guide me..

Hi, 1. the question is unclear. What ports? TCP/IP ports? SerialPort instances? ... 2. regardless, you can handle that with either asynchronous methods and events, or by having some kind of thread and a blocking read. 3. in any case, you can't touch GUI Controls from threads other than the main thread. So don't try
myTextBox.Text="got something";inside a DataReceived handler. The solution is here[^]. :)Luc Pattyn [Forum Guidelines] [Why QA sucks] [My Articles] Nil Volentibus Arduum

threading is the same in all kinds of apps, whether GUI, Console, or headless. However to access Controls you need to Invoke. :)

I'm lost in it.. i cant see thru it.. when i type a msg in msg text box i shud start a thread which sends it to client n then waits until a msg is received from client. Right.. or something else.. One more thing... how much time does it take a msg to get delivered from client to server on a lan of max 10 pcs.. i'm asking this coz i want active feed from my clients.. wheneva they type anything on their app it shud be displayed on my window...

I don't see a specific question here. if you are not familiar with the subject, read up on it, think about it, and experiment. when stuck, ask a specific question.

42 msec. how long is your message? how fast is your LAN? what other traffic is there? how inefficient is your code? if you now some app that does things similar to what you want, then that proves it can be done; if not, it may be an indication it can't be done. :)
