I'll buy that, thanks Rick

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?
I suspect this was a bad conversion of the docs from the OS/2 function
based version into the object based version. This probably should be
"if s~error = -1 then do"
