Re: [twsocket] OnDataAvailable called before shutdown with no data
I find that calling pause in OnSessionConnected() is effective. But calling pause in OnClientDataAvailable() does not work. OnClientDataAvailable() keeps getting fired. Any ideas? Maybe your socket already received data when you pause it. Pause only affect winsock notification. It stops notifications from winsock but if data is already in, you have to read it. Try the option wsoNoReceiveLoop, it may help to stop delivering of already received data. If you use the option and pause the socket, you will not be notified of any data already received and waiting in the buffer. So when you resume, you should probably call Receive once to check for remaining data. -- Contribute to the SSL Effort.

Re: [twsocket] OnDataAvailable called before shutdown with no data
Hello Francois, You can't ignore OnDataavailable event ! Got it. There is a flag FPaused but it is not exposed as a property. Oh, will you be able to expose it? I can modify the source code for now but I think it's useful when Pause and Resume is exposed. Not really. You can have a flag set/reset in your own application when you call Pause/Resume, or you can derive from TWSocket and create the property in your derived component. That's what OOP is all about. Hmm. Is there any particular reason that you don't want to expose FPaused? It seems safe to call Resume on all client socket without checking, am I right?

Re: [twsocket] OnDataAvailable called before shutdown with no data
Instead of ReceiveStr, call Receive to be able to get winsock.recv return code. This return code is -1 if some error occure, 0 is remote has gracefully closed or a positive integer to telle how many bytes you have received. Usually you can safely ignore any OnDataAvailable where Receive return = 0. -- Contribute to the SSL Effort.

Re: [twsocket] OnDataAvailable called before shutdown with no data
Hello Francois, Is there a way to tell the number of bytes available without actually retrieving the data? At some point I'd like to know if there is data available but do not want to actually remove the data from twsocket's buffer. This is because I want to open a remote socket and make sure it's in wsConnected state, then I'll retrieve data and send it through the remote socket. The idea is to skip OnDataAvailable if no data is available, and when there is some data, connect to a remote server, skip more OnDataAvailable until the remote socket is connected, then actually retrieve data and send the data via remote socket. Or is it a bad idea to do so? An alternative way is to call Receive() and allocate memory and cache the data into memory before remote socket is available. But is this necessary? -- Best regards, Jack Sunday, January 22, 2006, 4:24:57 AM, you wrote: Instead of ReceiveStr, call Receive to be able to get winsock.recv return code.

Re: [twsocket] OnDataAvailable called before shutdown with no data
Is there a way to tell the number of bytes available without actually retrieving the data? There is RcvdCount but due to winsock limitation, it is not always accurate. At some point I'd like to know if there is data available but do not want to actually remove the data from twsocket's buffer. This is because I want to open a remote socket and make sure it's in wsConnected state, then I'll retrieve data and send it through the remote socket. The idea is to skip OnDataAvailable if no data is available, and when there is some data, connect to a remote server, skip more OnDataAvailable until the remote socket is connected, then actually retrieve data and send the data via remote socket. Or is it a bad idea to do so? Maybe use Pause/Resume ? An alternative way is to call Receive() and allocate memory and cache the data into memory before remote socket is available. But is this necessary? You could receive a lot of data before the other socket is opened. This is a potential DOS attack. -- Contribute to the SSL Effort.

Hello Francois, Maybe use Pause/Resume ? It suppress async notification. So you don't receive events anymore but I/O continue as much as winsock can, for example filling his receive buffer. Got it.

Re: [twsocket] OnDataAvailable called before shutdown with no data
Hello Jack, if there is data available but do not want to actually remove the data from twsocket's buffer. This is because I want to You can use Pauze / Resume but there is also a very simple way to do it, just set wsoNoReceiveLoop in SocketOptions to True and dont Receive in OnDataAvailable, just Exit. At that point OnDataAvailable will not fire again. Later when you wants to receive again, just call Receive outside OnDataAvailable. --- Rgds, Wilfried [TeamICS] http://www.overbyte.be/eng/overbyte/teamics.html http://www.mestdagh.biz -- To unsubscribe or change your settings for TWSocket mailing list please goto http://www.elists.org/mailman/listinfo/twsocket Visit our website at http://www.overbyte.be

Wouldn't this be similar to ignoring OnDataAvailable event and is vulnerable to DOS attack? If you call Pauze then winsock will stay receiving until his buffer is full. Default value is 8 KB. Later when you wants to receive again and call Resume all is back to normal. DOS attac will only grow until winsock buffer is full so not a big deal (8 KB). --- Rgds, Wilfried [TeamICS] http://www.overbyte.be/eng/overbyte/teamics.html http://www.mestdagh.biz -- To unsubscribe or change your settings for TWSocket mailing list please goto http://www.elists.org/mailman/listinfo/twsocket Visit our website at http://www.overbyte.be
