UDP server/client
I am using XE7.1 with the installed Indy. I wrote an application that uses the client and server classes from indy for UDP to comunicate. There are many servers on the same network, and potentially many clients. THe client send a broadcast to the broadcast ip to get signal the servers, so they send back an ack that the client can discover the server ips. All this works fine for me, however th way I implemented could be wrong. My server is using the TidUDPServer only. But my clients are using both, the TidUDPServer and TidUDPClient. Since the UDPCLient is blocking when sending a message and it waits for 1 message, and not many, I have added the UDPServer just to use the listening thread that it implements. However this brings a problems, if I open more than client in the same computer it causes an error, probably because the PORT that I choose is in user already (idUDPServer is set to 44444) So how to implement this? How can I have a UDPClient with a listener thread? or a UDPServer that shares the same port? or my approach is all wrong, besides it works when only one client is running (that is 99,99% of the cases) thanks....

Why not just have the UDPServer read everything? You don't really need the UDPClient, you can send out data using TIdUDPServer as well, just send using the Binding that you want to receive a reply with. In your OnUDPRead event, look at the packet data and act accordingly. > However this brings a problems, if I open more than client in the same > computer it causes an error, probably because the PORT that I choose > is in user already (idUDPServer is set to 44444) Correct. You cannot have multiple servers on the same machine listening on the same port at the same time. > How can I have a UDPClient with a listener thread? Move the TIdUDPClient into its own thread, and let it block that thread on reading. What is the problem? > or a UDPServer that shares the same port? You cannot. > or my approach is all wrong, besides it works when only one client is > running (that is 99,99% of the cases) If you really need multiple clients on the same machine, you have to make them listen on different ports. You could let the OS pick an available port for you (set the Binding.Port to 0), or you can make the clients communicate with each other to coordinate their port usage with each other. Either way, you need separate ports, period. -- Remy Lebeau (TeamB)

automation server to client and client to server
I have to applications that need to communicate with each other. Is it practical for both of them to be servers and clients to each other? One of the applications will work primarily as a server and will launch the other application. The newly launched application needs to be able to send occasional information to the server to update information in the application that launched it. Also, if the user attempts to close the launched application it needs to tell the launcher application to close the appl ication that it launched. Does this sound practical? This is kind of like launching wo...

How will we notify the client for success/fail and we need to develop it in such a way that future "extensions" can add to it. For fail conditions we should send the standard 401 Unauthorized http response with the body being a message for the user using Content-Type: text/plain.

Anyone using Delphi clients with Python socket servers?
Hi, Just wondering if anyone is using Delphi clients (indy or synapse) with Python based servers using threads or select from a single process. I have been playing around with Python as the server because its fairly similar to Delphi and runs on every OS. I have made a CRLF based server and a Synapse based client for sending and receiving popup notifications. So far the combo is great, but I am really wondering if anyone has done anything with sending streams(files or other binary data) from delphi to a Python server and how it was handled. -- Tony Caduto AM Software Design http:/...
