Hi,
I started learning Revolution today, though I have been programming in
other languages such as Java for many years before. What I'd like to do
is create a simple chat program. I managed to write the client part and
send a message to a Java server application, but I just cannot build a
server. All the server has to do is listen to connections on port 5001,
accept a connection, read from the socket until linefeed and then
terminate the connection. After that it should put the text in some field
for display.
I did search through your list and saw a few examples, but they didn't
work. There was also a link to a ZIP-ed chat program source which I
downloaded, but the file was corrupted.
There are a number of examples out there - and they do work. So I'm
slightly concerned that you found some which don't - it would be helpful
if you could let us know which ones you tried without success. Hopefully
that would lead to either answers to make them work for you, or changes
to make them work for the next person who tries them.
You can find my version in RevOnline, under username "alextweedly" - the
TCP version is called TCPApp1 and TCPApp2. TCPApp1 is basically a
server, TCPApp2 basically a client - though they have been extended to
allow asynchronous communication initiated by either side once the
connection is open.
So could someone please just type down the source of a simple server
script? On the Runtime's site they say you can write a client/server with
just a few lines, so I'm sure it's very simple, but I cannot figure it out.
I'd encourage you to try the samples above, or to work with the ones you
found earlier.
But - simple code - the script for some object to do this could be as
simple as
on mouseUp
accept connections on port 5001 with message "gotConn"
end mouseUp
on gotConn pSocket
read from socket pSocket until CR
put it into field "myData"
close socket pSocket
end gotConn
