Send Bytes on a Socket Connection

See more Socket/SSL/TLS Examples

Demonstrates how to send a mixture of binary (non-text) and text bytes on a socket connection. VBScript

Dim fso, outFile
Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
'Create a Unicode (utf-16) output text file.
Set outFile = fso.CreateTextFile("output.txt", True, True)

success = 0

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

set socket = CreateObject("Chilkat.Socket")

' Connect to some host:port
ssl = 0
maxWaitMillisec = 20000
port = 5555
success = socket.Connect("test.com",port,ssl,maxWaitMillisec)
If (success <> 1) Then
    outFile.WriteLine(socket.LastErrorText)
    WScript.Quit
End If

' We wish to send a 0x00 byte followed by the us-ascii string "10800"
set bd = CreateObject("Chilkat.BinData")

success = bd.AppendByte(0)
success = bd.AppendString("10800","utf-8")

' Send the entire contents of bd.
success = socket.SendBd(bd,0,0)
If (success <> 1) Then
    outFile.WriteLine(socket.LastErrorText)
    WScript.Quit
End If


outFile.Close
