Re: [twsocket] Simultaneous TPing request using multithread.

2013-03-02 Thread Lester Clayton

Absolutely no issue :)

I've already written such an application.  Works either 32 bit or 64 
bit.  If you like I can let you have the application plus source code to 
help give you some ideas where to start.

Good day,

  


I need to build a network monitoring tool that will ping about a 1000 IP's
on a regular basis,  I plan to use Thread-Pool for this.

  


I know there is an issue with doing simultaneous ICMP request because all
the listening socket receive the reply and this create confusion.

  


My question is does ICS Ping component work out-the-box for this, or I need
to modify the component and add some unique identifier to the data being
sent?

  

  


Cheers,

I did a major rewrite of ICMP and Ping last month, including a new
threaded ping component and a trace route demo that sends off lots of
pings using threads. 

Unfortunately Arno decided it would not work on FireMonkey (about which
probably very few care) and he removed it from SVN.  Since I can not
actually build the FireMonkey packages in XE3 which are undocumented, get
too many silly errors, everything is on hold until I have sufficient
spare time to try and reverse engineer his changes.

My older thread ping component has been sending dozens of simultaneous
requests for 10 years without any issues.

It is a fact that it did not work.

 (about which probably very few care) 

ICS V8 supports FireMonkey (Windows and OS X), if you do not want
to support it please no not add you contribution to ICS V8.   

 and he removed it from SVN.

Because I currently do not have the spare time to fix your 
contribution. 

 Since I can not
 actually build the FireMonkey packages in XE3 which are undocumented, get

Oh come on, you do have the source, nothing to reverse engineer, simply 
read and get the source. And XE2 will do as well.
