I am new to network programming. May be its a basic question, I surely can get help with ur input. I have a TCP Client class and when I have a message to send I initialize tcpclient, connect and send the message. Now I have a time out till i wait for response. I am waiting for response, My question is : Can I send another message while waiting for response. After I receive a response I close the tcpClient.It is a disconnected client.
