TCP server - socket

[ManUtdFans]

I have the source code to listen to a port:

private Socket _client;
private Socket _socket;
private bool _continue = true;

private void btnConnect_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
IPEndPoint ip = new IPEndPoint(IPAddress.Any, 8002);
_socket = new Socket(AddressFamily.InterNetwork, SocketType.Stream, ProtocolType.Tcp);

_socket.Bind(ip);
_socket.Listen(10);

_client = _socket.Accept();
IPEndPoint clientep = (IPEndPoint)_client.RemoteEndPoint;

byte[] data;
while (_continue)
{
data = new byte[1024];
int receivedDataLength = _client.Receive(data);
// testing - send the same data back to client
_client.Send(data, receivedDataLength, SocketFlags.None);
}
}


- Do the above source code handle multi-client connection?
- As this is for testing (it is a WinForm), what should I change if I use that in a Windows service?
- How do I send the "data" to all connected clients?

Thanks

nope.

you need to add a loop:

while( serverIsRunning ) {
    _client = _socket.Accept();
    // usually you'll spawn another thread here and process the client in another thread
}

where you continuously loop accepting client connections and spin off to process that connection (at least while that server is running).
