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. Ruby

require 'chilkat'

success = false

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

listenSocket = Chilkat::CkSocket.new()

# 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() + "\n";
    exit
end

# Get the next incoming connection
# Wait a maximum of 20 seconds (20000 millisec)
connectedSocket = Chilkat::CkSocket.new()
success = listenSocket.AcceptNext(20000,connectedSocket)
if (success == false)
    print listenSocket.lastErrorText() + "\n";
    exit
end

# 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() + "\n";
    exit
end

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

print "success!" + "\n";
