CkPython Requires Chilkat v11.0.0+

Accept Connection on Socket

See more Socket/SSL/TLS Examples

Demonstrates how to create a TCP/IP socket, listen on a port, accept an incoming connection, and send a "Hello World" message to the client. CkPython

import sys
import chilkat

success = False

#  This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
#  See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

listenSocket = chilkat.CkSocket()

#  Bind to a port and listen for incoming connections:
#  This example will listen at port 5555 and allows for a backlog
#  of 25 pending connection requests.
success = listenSocket.BindAndListen(5555,25)
if (success == False):
    print(listenSocket.lastErrorText())
    sys.exit()

#  Get the next incoming connection
#  Wait a maximum of 20 seconds (20000 millisec)
connectedSocket = chilkat.CkSocket()
success = listenSocket.AcceptNext(20000,connectedSocket)
if (success == False):
    print(listenSocket.lastErrorText())
    sys.exit()

#  Set maximum timeouts for reading an writing (in millisec)
connectedSocket.put_MaxReadIdleMs(10000)
connectedSocket.put_MaxSendIdleMs(10000)

#  Send a "Hello World!" message to the client:
success = connectedSocket.SendString("Hello World!")
if (success != True):
    print(connectedSocket.lastErrorText())
    sys.exit()

#  Close the connection with the client.
#  Wait a max of 20 seconds (20000 millsec)
success = connectedSocket.Close(20000)

print("success!")
