Re: [twsocket] Using WSocket to get ip of domain

2005-09-23 Thread Francois Piette
 I know waiting in a loop is not the best way, but how else can I do it?
 I have a list of 4 domains that I want to get the ip address for..

Easy ! Just have a list of what you need to lookup, build a routine to start a 
lookup if there is
something in the list. From the LookupDone event, you call again your start 
routine, until the luist
is emptyed. No loop, no wait, pure event driven.

 Don't wait in a loop. Event OnDnsLookupDone is fired after the lookup
 has finished.

 the process after 10 seconds but that doesn't work either.

 sIP is a global string

 Button1 click

   sIP := '';
   WSocket1.Addr:= edSite.text;
   WSocket1.DnsLookup(edSite.text);
   While sIP = '' do
 Application.ProcessMessages;
   edIP.text := sIP;
 //

 And with WsockectDone event
   If Error0 then
 sIP := 'Error retrieving'
   else
 sIP := WSocket1.DnsResult;
 //=

 This works 90% of the time, but if the connection dies or the domain is
 invalid (like aaabbb.com) then it hangs totaly.

 Thanks alot :-)
