TCP receive question

[Marc from D]

Hi!

In my application a use a serial interface for communication. This interface allows sending bytes and (NECCESSARY) calls a function as soon as an event happend on the line.

So receiving is easy: as soon at least character has arrived, th function gets called and I can process the data.

Now I want to archieve the same for TCP-connection. But until now I could'nt find such a called function. I would have to call recv() in a loop and analyze after that the result.

Is there any way to make the workflow as it is with the serial intrerface?


Thanks!

recv() functions gets data in a char buffer. So the ideea of calling it in a loop and it's analysis afther that it's the only way to find the results.

I guess that this it's the only ideea, cause TCP is not a serial (it's not a bit by bit... communication protocol), so this function and the TCP protocol should not offer you the possibility to test a bit in the receiving moment.

you can implement it in the same way using WaitForSingleObject
