Hi René & all,
To be clear, I am instantiating an object but I haven't gotten an error
doing so... I was just reading the doc to understand how to do this and
I found the sample case to be odd.
For example if I were to write a line like:
-1~errno
I would expect something like -1 does not understand the message errno.
The if statement in the doc seemed to be identical to that case (if s=-1
then ... s~errno...).
So, the socket is instantiated even if it's value is set to -1?

Hi Terry,
just for my understanding of what you mean: you instantiated an
object, which’ particular purpose was to open a tcp socket. The fact
that this did go wrong, does not mean you cannot send the object a
message of ‘let me know the error code of what happened when you tried
to open the socket’. You are not sending anything over the socket (it
is most prpbably not there) - you are communicating with your object.
Or seems something else wrong?
best regards,
René.

Hello all,
I'm working my way thru a project that makes use of rxsockets. in
*ooRexx Documentation 5.0.0 **
**Open Object Rexx RxSock TCP/IP Socket Functions Reference**
**Edition 1 *
i found:
-- get a new socket s = .socket~new() if s = -1 then do say 'Error'
s~errno() 'creating server socket' return end
but... if s is -1, sending a message to it to extract an error
message number seems wrong; at least to me. Am I missing something?
