Hi,
I need a simple Visual Basic Client/Server TCP/IP Component - DLL/COM/ActiveX library used to create server and client programs that can communicate with each other across any TCP/IP (Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol) network such as the Internet or a private network (intranet or LAN [local area net]).
The Server-Side Component should allow for multiple connections.
The component will be used to create both Clients and Server Programs.
The functions for the component - should be easy to use. The componet should be thread-safe.
Server Side - must be able to handle multiple connections concurrently. Error Checking is required.
We need to send integer%, long&, string-data and binary-data to either Client or Server.
We need a Client/Server VB Program, demonstrating the use of your control and all functions.
We have tested several components on the market - and have found them lacking, difficult to use, and many wasted or tricked the use of vb-controls - just to get the component in use!
We do not want any tricks or gimics! Just good solid functions that are easy to use and allows us to program without worrying if our data made to the other side!
Regards
SA
