Hi, 
I am working on establishing Client-Server module over TCP.I have put a set up 
such that my PC acts as a normal server where I can connect it from some other 
PC's on my LAN using 'telnet ipaddress port' command and once I get connected 
with the server and can give some input from client computer so that it gets 
displayed on my server window(connection is established and data exchange takes 
place). 
Until here I can say that the server is working fine and what i wanted to 
implement is that now I wrote a code using lwIP API for the Altium Nanaboard so 
that my NB3000 acts like a client and i wanted it to get connected to my PC 
Server. 
Here goes my code for the client part which gets connected to the Server with 
given IPaddress. 

int tcp_client(void) 
{ 
char data[] = "Hello World"; 
struct netconn *conn; 
struct ip_addr ServAddr; 
err_t err; 
u16_t port; 

port = 7777; 

conn = netconn_new(NETCONN_TCP); 

IP4_ADDR(&ServAddr, 192,168,xx,xxx); 

err = netconn_connect(conn, &ServAddr, port); 
printf("err = %d", err); //err = -4 this is the value I am getting for err.

if(err == ERR_OK) 

netconn_write(conn, data, sizeof(data), NETCONN_NOCOPY); 

netconn_close(conn); 

netconn_delete(conn); 
} 
} 

here i open a new connection and connect it to Server using its IPaddress. 

Before that I wanted to check the connection whether it is connected or not, so 
what i did is i assigned a variable "err" and when I try to print it out on the 
terminal instrument and see the value it gives a value of "-4". 
Is this correct what I am doing here so that if i get a negative value that 
means the client is successfully connected to the server. 
If so how can i transfer the data "Hello World" on to my server and get it 
displayed there. 
Kind Regards,
Greek
