Re: [twsocket] New V6 beta FTP client and server components
Angus Robertson - Magenta Systems Ltd wrote: Many thanks, today I managed to raise an exception in CommandPASV(), port in use. The port table reported the port as free, although the server actually was listening on that port. I was clicking around in multiple FTP clients when that happened. The port release code is called from a lot of places in different circumstances, not really look at it. I will look at it. But at least the change to use sequential ports means such in-use errors will be much rarer, AFAIR, you did not mention in-use error replies sent by the server. Most likely this just works around a buggy router/firewall that caused the winsock 10061/10060 errors. If so, your fix should work as long as the passive port range is large enough and more than one free port would be available at any time. it is the normal windows behaviour to use sequential ports, not the same one repeatedly. However you also mentioned that the server got out of sequence which may not happen, this should be investigated/fixed as well. I tried to reproduce this behaviour yesterday in vain. I quoted PASV then went on with all kind of commands but the server handled them correctly.

Hello, Sorry for the trouble. I just fixed an error in another part of the program, a call to a driver, having nothing to do with the TWSocket or really anything related to it, and AQTime reports only one leak of 4096 bytes. This one I have no idea what it is. It appears to be from MakeObjectInstance on TApplication.Create. I just switched from SleuthQA to AQtime. AQtime seems pretty good so far.

[twsocket] UDP IP Spoofing Possible with ICS?

Are you sure you get the error on the Connect() call, or on a subsequent method call? Keep in mind that the SmtpCli component is asynchronous, which means that it doesn't wait for the method to finish, but returns immediately. So, you cannot call another method right after Connect because the component is not connected yet. You have to use the events provided to call the next method. dZ. -- DZ-Jay [TeamICS] http://www.overbyte.be/eng/overbyte/teamics.html -- To unsubscribe or change your settings for TWSocket mailing list please goto http://lists.elists.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/twsocket Visit our website at http://www.overbyte.be

Note that .NET (at least with .NET 1.1, not sure about 2.0 ++) the form ALWAYS posts to itself. The problems are not difficult to overcome. I don't have any examples. It would be easier for you IF the site you want to post data to has a webservice. Hope this is of some assistance.

You are correct in that I would like to try to use Delphi to accomplish this task. We also have the option of using Visual Studio, but I try to use Delphi as many times as can be justified. I found examples of how to pick up the URL, the method (POST), the encoding (default in this case) from reading past postings and sample code, but do not think I found any example code showing how to utilize data fields that need to be filled in prior to posting. Would you have an example of this. In this case, with the ASPX Page, after filling in the data and submitting, they did not appear on the address line with the other input variables.

To sublit a form using the ICS HTTP client component, you must have a look at the source of the form and extract the action (that is the URL which will process the form), the method (that is either GET or POST), the encoding (how to format data) and of course all the data fields. Once you have all those elements, you can craft the same request as the one generated by any browser. If you are not that much good at HTML forms, instaed of looking at the form's source code, you may use a sniffer and capture the request sent by the browser when you submit the form. Then you have just to see what
