Connecting to AIM TOC

**AgentSmithers** · September 17th, 2009, 09:25 AM

Code:

	char * AIMIP = "64.12.203.86";
		//toc.oscar.aol.com
		//"205.188.213.226";

struct TCP
{
	SOCKET sock;
	int TotalBytesRecv; //Total Number Of Bytes Recved
	long PacketLength;  //Total Number Of Bytes Expected to complete packet
	char HeapBuffer[SizeOfBuffer];
} AimSocket;


	if (AimSocket.sock != NULL) if (closesocket(AimSocket.sock) == SOCKET_ERROR && WSAGetLastError() != WSAENOTSOCK) return false; //WSAENOTSOCK For socket if already Closed...
	if ((AimSocket.sock = socket(PF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, IPPROTO_TCP)) == SOCKET_ERROR) return false; // Error creating socket
	//if (WSAAsyncSelect(AimSocket.sock , Main.hWnd, (WM_USER + 2), FD_READ | FD_CLOSE | FD_CONNECT) != 0) return false; //This makes sockets NON-Blocking and Will Report issues such as Failed Connections with in this case Windows Messages
	Main.AimSocketInfo.sin_port = htons(5190); //atoi(pch + 5) Gets Port Number and Cast To Int
	if ((Main.AimSocketInfo.sin_addr.S_un.S_addr = inet_addr(AIMIP)) == INADDR_NONE) return false;
	if (connect(AimSocket.sock, (sockaddr *)&Main.AimSocketInfo, sizeof(sockaddr_in)) == SOCKET_ERROR)
	{
		int WSAError = WSAGetLastError();
		OutputDebugString("Failed To Connect To AIM");
		return false;
	}

I get WSAEAFNOSUUPORT (10047) when trying to connect to TOC, Anyone know why? =(

Well, the obvious answer:

"Address family not supported by protocol family.

An address incompatible with the requested protocol was used. All sockets are created with an associated address family (that is, AF_INET for Internet Protocols) and a generic protocol type (that is, SOCK_STREAM). This error is returned if an incorrect protocol is explicitly requested in the socket call, or if an address of the wrong family is used for a socket, for example, in sendto."

(from http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/libr...8VS.85%29.aspx)

If your code is correct (looks OK at first glance; but you don't show us Main.AimSocketInfo), then whatever is listening on port 5190 at 64.12.203.86 is not AF_INET/TCP.

Hmmm. I can connect just fine. It appears to be an HTTP server. a HEAD request give:

Code:

HTTP/1.1 501 Not Implemented
Date: Thu
Server: TOC/1.0
Connection: close
Content-type: text/html

But... HTTP is on top of INET STREAM.... :-/ So how would that make sence?

U use port 5190?

I did. It must be something else. Can you show your complete code?

**AgentSmithers** · September 17th, 2009, 08:00 PM

From what im aware of that is everything. Just place that code into a Int Main(void) and run it, Should work just fine... as long as you of course Link and Include Winsock

**hoxsiew** · September 18th, 2009, 08:10 AM

No, there's not nearly enough there to compile.

**hoxsiew** · September 18th, 2009, 09:31 AM

Here's a complete working example:

Code:

#include <windows.h>
#include <winsock.h>
#pragma comment(lib, "Ws2_32.lib")

#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>

int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
  int sock,len;
  unsigned long in_addr;
  struct sockaddr_in client;
  char c,buf[50];
  WSADATA wsa;


  if(WSAStartup(0x0101,&wsa)){
    fprintf(stderr,"Unable to start winsock (%d)\n",WSAGetLastError());
    return EXIT_FAILURE;
  }

  memset(&client,0,sizeof(client));
  client.sin_family=AF_INET;
  in_addr=inet_addr("64.12.203.86");
  if(in_addr!=INADDR_NONE){
    memcpy(&client.sin_addr,&in_addr,sizeof(in_addr));
  }else{
    fprintf(stderr,"Unable to parse address (%d)\n",WSAGetLastError());
    return EXIT_FAILURE;
  }
  client.sin_port=htons(5190);
  sock=(int)socket(AF_INET,SOCK_STREAM,0);
  if(sock==SOCKET_ERROR){
    fprintf(stderr,"Unable to create socket (%d)\n",WSAGetLastError());
    return EXIT_FAILURE;
  }
  if(connect(sock,(struct sockaddr *)&client,sizeof(client))==SOCKET_ERROR){
    closesocket(sock);      
    fprintf(stderr,"Unable to connect (%d)\n",WSAGetLastError());
    return EXIT_FAILURE;
  }
  sprintf(buf,"HEAD / HTTP/1.0\r\n\r\n");
  len=strlen(buf);
  if(send(sock,buf,len,0)!=len){
    closesocket(sock);      
    fprintf(stderr,"send() failed (%d)\n",WSAGetLastError());
    return EXIT_FAILURE;
  }
  while(recv(sock,&c,1,0)){
    printf("%c",c);
  }
  closesocket(sock);
  WSACleanup();
  return EXIT_SUCCESS;
}

Output:

Code:

HTTP/1.1 501 Not Implemented
Date: Fri
Server: TOC/1.0
Connection: close

Main.AimSocketInfo.sin_family = AF_INET; //Assine IPv4 To Socket's Was the issue I never had that in my code... Weird?

Im very supprised that

((AimSocket.sock = socket(PF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, IPPROTO_TCP)) == SOCKET_ERROR)
dosent take care of that.

**dglienna** · September 20th, 2009, 12:18 AM

Router blocking it?

**AgentSmithers** · September 20th, 2009, 02:02 AM

No a peice of code was missing my, My post above.

**hoxsiew** · September 20th, 2009, 10:58 AM

Unless you have some weird configuration, AF_INET should be the same as PF_INET

**AgentSmithers** · September 20th, 2009, 11:13 AM

It is....

**hoxsiew** · September 20th, 2009, 11:57 AM

So how is it possible that changing that fixed your problem?

**AgentSmithers** · September 20th, 2009, 12:20 PM

Code:

Main.AimSocketInfo.sin_family = AF_INET;

The Code above is required with the code below to work

Code:

((AimSocket.sock = socket(PF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, IPPROTO_TCP)) == SOCKET_ERROR)

The Code on bottom alone is not enough to have the socket work with IPV4, Which is odd, you think if you were to create a Socket with PF_INET/AF_INET the connect would be able to establish a connection just fine, Ignore the PF/AF its the same thing. I was just missing the line above, After that everything was peachy.
