funkey Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 Hello, I just want to know how this works in AutoIt. Opt("TCPTimeout", 100) ;100 milliseconds Is is for receiving only or for sending too? I think SO_RCVTIMEO and SO_SNDTIMEO is used. Does the option value of zero mean, that the operation will not time out? Can someone of the devs please tell me how this is done? Thanks!

funkey Posted April 11, 2013 Author Share Posted April 11, 2013 (edited) I think, this ticket has nothing to do with the 'TCPTimeout' option. Timeout when connecting is another thing as timeout when sending and receiving. Edit: AutoIt AFAIK uses blocking mode for TCP. You have to switch to nonblocking mode using ioctlsocket() function. Here a solution for this issue has been posted: and see it here is C: http://www.codeproject.com/Tips/168704/How-to-set-a-socket-connection-timeout Edited April 11, 2013 by funkey Programming today is a race between software engineers striving tobuild bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the Universetrying to produce bigger and better idiots.So far, the Universe is winning.

bogQ Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 (edited) i'm a little confused over here if client sends to server how will the server know when client is in timeout if server newer receive it?

funkey Posted April 12, 2013 Author Share Posted April 12, 2013 i'm a little confused over hereif client sends to server how will the server know when client is in timeout if server newer receive it?If a blocking send call times out, the connection is in an indeterminate state and should be closed.So I think, server will never know, but better just close the connection.

bogQ Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 (edited) maybe I asked that question wrong but nwm at the moment from what I checked TCPTimeout only stands for sleep if no communication, basically it's wait time before continue, it influence TCPAccept and TCPRecv (but TCPRecv only if socket is connected hopefully coz youl get error if no socket ) it does not influence TCPSend. So it will wait for something to happen in that predefined time (if something happened it will relies that func) if not full sleep is done before allowing loop to continue once before another wait is initiated.its like doingdo$var = TCPRecv()until $var or timediff() >= 100edit: and from what I see it don't have slightest thing to do with tcp timed out error (but I can b wrong) Edited April 12, 2013 by bogQ TCP server and client - Learning about TCP servers and clients connectionAu3 oIrrlicht - Irrlicht projectAu3impact - Another 3D DLL game engine for autoit.

bogQ Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 (edited) hey I did not try to criticize you I just post result from testing in last post, i together with you did not know how it was working, if I did make wrong impression im sorry about that that, wasn't my intention to sound like that Edited April 12, 2013 by bogQ TCP server and client - Learning about TCP servers and clients connectionAu3 oIrrlicht - Irrlicht projectAu3impact - Another 3D DLL game engine for autoit.
