send a data to a client

[Silvio.Falconi]

I finally managed to connect sockserv to the sockcli
and creating an array I saw that when a client connects, it puts the socket number and its ip
as you can see in this picture





Now I wish send a message or a file to client but to a specific client
How I must make ?

I try to send data from server and it send only to the last connected oclient

wich is the command or function to send message to a specific oClient ?

[lucasdebeltran]

Silvio, can you post the code so far?. Thanks

[Silvio.Falconi]

I use sockcli.prg and sockserv.prg U found them on samples folder

When a client is connetted to server I create an array with oClient:nSocket and oClient:ClientIP()

I 'am trying to understand How I can acquire information and use the commands of socket

If someone can help me ...

I must not create a netpoint and I not sale my applications I work at school

Silvio,
did you try sockcli.prg and sockserv.prg in two different computers?
In example in sockserv.prg

Code: Select all  Expand view

  DEFINE BUTTON OF oBar ACTION oClient:SendData( "Hello from server!" ) TOOLTIP "Talk to client"

works fine!

[Silvio.Falconi]

yes
SERVER---> Sockserv-prg

one PC----------------------------> Sockcli.prg
Second Pc ----------------------->Sockcli.prg
third Pc -------------------------- >Sockcli.prg

Now I stay on server and send a message ...where I sent the message



only to third Pc...Why ? because only the the server is connected to third pc

oooooooohhhhhhhhhhhh !!!!!!!!!!!!

Silvio,

You need to keep an array with all the clients that you are serving.

In FWH\source\classes\tnewssrv.prg there is an example of a News server that uses sockets and multiple clients

I wish call from server a function to snapshot client screen home I cam make ?
