I am trying to interface to an API. I am instructed to use the server and port information provided to setup a TCP socket. I did that like this:
require 'socket' my_socket=TCPSocket::open("ip","port") Where "ip" and "port" are the provided ip and port of the server respectively. I am told that once the connection is established I will receive a greeting from the server. I was expecting to find that greeting in my_socket. Instead the contents of my_socket looks like this: #<TCPSocket:0x9961c80> Can anyone please tell me what I am doing wrong and what I need to do to get at the greeting? Obviously I am very green at this. Thanks for any input. ... doug -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
