data sent through TCP

[tsolrm]

I'm trying to send a large chunk of data (characters - letters/numbers) through TCP using TCPSend, but it only sends so many characters and then cuts off. I've tried to increase the maximum length after TCPRec but that didn't help

Is there an absolute maximum for how much data i can send at once?

[tsolrm]

$ServerStatistics=TCPRecv ($TCPConnect, 10000000000)

Is there a certain maximum for how many characters can a variable hold?

Without providing any snippet of code one can only suggest you're not using TCPStartup.

Try using my UDF

there's 1000 lines of code, i can post it all if you like but i seriously doubt you will be able to figure out whats going on, cos there aren't any comments.

I'm simply asking for ideas why this could happen. @error seems to be 0.

It's a large chunk of data - well over 100000 characters

[tsolrm]

$Data=FileRead ("ServerLog.txt")

TCPSend ($TCPAccept, $Data)

$count=StringLen ($Data)

MsgBox (0, "test", $count)

This shows as 140000 characters. So the server sends this to the client

Do

$ServerStatistics=TCPRecv ($TCPConnect, 1000000)

Until $ServerStatistics <> ""

$count=StringLen ($ServerStatistics)

MsgBox (0, "test", $count)

Client receives 6944 symbols exactly. I don't understand why

[tsolrm]

Anyone?

Thought it was made pretty clear not to bump threads within 24 hours...no?

Next time it won't be a warning anymore.

Either way, Why even trying to send the whole file in one go? Just cut it up in reasonable size packets.

One thing you are not doing is testing for the success of TCPSend which might give you more information why things are not working.
