For 2023 (and 2024 ...) - we are now fully retired from IT training.
We have made many, many friends over 25 years of teaching about Python, Tcl, Perl, PHP, Lua, Java, C and C++ - and MySQL, Linux and Solaris/SunOS too. Our training notes are now very much out of date, but due to upward compatability most of our examples remain operational and even relevant ad you are welcome to make us if them "as seen" and at your own risk.

Lisa and I (Graham) now live in what was our training centre in Melksham - happy to meet with former delegates here - but do check ahead before coming round. We are far from inactive - rather, enjoying the times that we are retired but still healthy enough in mind and body to be active!

I am also active in many other area and still look after a lot of web sites - you can find an index ((here))
Tcl socket client

Posted by tclinside (tclinside), 5 May 2006
Dear all;

 I'm trying to connect my TCL app to tcp server using the following code, but i have two probelems, the client wait until the end of "for" loop in server and it show data in ASCII mode  

how to resolve that ?

Tcl client:

set server localhost
set sockChan [socket $server 9900]
gets $sockChan line
#scan line %c var
puts $line
close $sockChan

----------------
C++ server:

for (int j=0; j<=1;j ++)  {
           cglove.UpdateData();
           for(int i=0; i<cglove.GetNSensors(); ++i)
{
  int nData = cglove.GetData(i);
  nRet = send(remoteSocket, // Connected socket
     (char*)&nData, // Data buffer
     sizeof(int), // Lenght of data
     0); // Flags
}
}


Best regards.

gets reads from a channel until a new line character or end of file is received before returning, so that's why you get nothing until the server has completed all of its work. You can fconfigure the channel to change its behaviour - there's an example of that at http://www.wellho.net/resources/ex.php4?item=t244/kesclient.

The data received by gets is a string of characters, which is what will be printed out by puts - I think that's what you mean by ASCII mode. You probably want to use a binary scan to translate it before you output it.
