Using Sockets
Hi, I'm trying to use sockets to make a multyplayer game server-client My problem is that I don't know how to work with stThreadBlocking.

I looked for examples of this on the internet but didn't found anything useful, is there anyone that c...

How to use the sockets?
Hi, I've gathered that Rakudo now implements sockets, and I wanted to do some basic data shuffling for testing purposes. Could anybody point me to a really simple, working example? I tried to cargo-cult it from Web.pm (<http://github.com/masak/web/blob/c6f53b76241d3c16bcc356dfe555d055f2f0ecfa/lib/HTTP/Daemon.pm>): use v6; my $l = IO::Socket::INET.socket(2, 1, 6).bind('127.0.0.1', 1234); my $s = $l.accept(); That dies on the last line, with Null PMC access in isa() current instr.: '!CALLMETHOD' pc 18912 (src/builtins/guts.pir:80) called from Sub...

Using Using
I have just completed reading a chapter in my book on performance. The books says to speed up performance on your web site you should use the using statement when opening connections. My question is how do you catch errors if you are using this as apposed to a try catch block.thanksBryan  Why would you use it as an alternative to a try/catch statement. Couldn't you just do something like  public void UsingSomeMethod() { try { SomeMethod(); } catch(SomeException e) { /// do something useful }}public void SomeMethod() { using (Something) { ...

When to use ( and when to use ((?
I'm just not getting it. When do you use ( in a statement, when do you need to use ((, and is the space after either or both mandatory? For example, I coded this statement: if (( $_ eq $bad_guys_ip )) { more_stuff_here }; Why the two (( in an if? And why does it seem to not work when I miss the space after the ((? Thanx!

How to use Sockets?
Two applications, one in VC++ 6.0, the other in VB.NET, Can I use sockets to make them talk to each other? How? Thanks a lot Well you could, but it isn't the most efficient mechanism on the same machine. The other question is what mechanisms, if any, are already in these apps now? If sockets are already there, but COM and nothing else is, then ok use sockets. If COM (or something else) is there, then it would be better to stick with COM. If neither is there, then COM would be the easiest solution to retrofit on both. There are certainly other options too, but unless th...

Email using socket
Hi All,Can i send email using socket in visual web developer 2005(VB). Thanks  You can use the .NET API to do the same, which internally uses sockets.

Using socket in perl
Hello all, I'm writing a server and a client in perl. My client communicates with the server using sockets. I'm using IO::Socket::INET to create the sockets. My problem is that when my client close the socket, the expressions "while ($line = <$client>)" is an infinite loop and $line contains "\n"; How can I know in the server when a client close a connection ?

Using Raw Sockets
As part of a project at college i want to demonstrate creating packets using raw sockets to create a conventional ICMP packet and send it from one machine to one directly next to it to show the class that it works. Does anyone have any source code (preferably C/C++) which creates packets using raw sockets, or know where i can get one. I have already discovered that I will need admin privilages on the 2k lab machine. Surprisingly i have been given access to this su account for the duration of the class (30 mins! - WOW). -- Thanks lots You don't need raw sockets to send ...

How to use IO::Socket
Over the long haul I've made a couple of programs that use sockets but still I don't understand to very basics of it yet. That is how to properly send and receive the data. So far what I have been doing is thus: $client = IO::Socket::INET->new('server'); while (<$client>) { chomp; next unless $_; ..... But doing it that way I sometimes have weirdness where I receive nothing yet the 'next unless' statement doesn't catch it for some reason. For sending I usually just print to the $client variable like a filehandle. I'm just wonder...
