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 Our training notes are now very much out of date, but due to upward compatability most of our examples remain operational and even relevant ad you are welcome to make us if them "as seen" and at your own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))
Server program written in Tcl using sockets

Tcl includes socket libraries so that you can write your own clients and servers. Our recommendation is that you stick with standard protocols and use packages such as http rather than inventing your own - however, there might be occasions and on that basis we've got examples on our Tcl Programming course and web site - source here.

This application is a gift server - you connect in and pass in a gift (it's a good way to move something that you don't want on) and you'll be given back in return whatever it was that the previous person donated.

Here's the server display (upper window) and the client session I was running:



Code (link avove) is documented ... you'll possibly want to handle multiple concurrent connections, timeouts, etc, for real live application - but the starting point is these principles.
