Winsock array

[lorenzoo]

hi all, im using winsock array in vb6, i converted to vb.net 2005 platform...they created a axwinsockarray .dll.. my question is : it is useful using winsock in vb.net 2005 ? until now the conversion is good .. but i don't know if it will be an error in futur by using winsock inside vb.net 2005 .... can anyone help me thanks in advance.

I believe winsock went the way of the dinosaurs in .Net. It was replaced by System.Net.Sockets Namespace[^], and on a high-level by TcpClient [^] and TcpListener[^]. So, I suggest migrating to one of those to make it easier and avoid any unnecessary problems.

If you are using the winsock (VB.NET 2005) for desktop application then no issue. You will get the same functionality with InterOp Winsock component i.e. AxWinsockArray.dll. Otherwise instead of InterOp Winsock you can use the socket programming, which is a great alternative of winsock.
