TCP Streaming messages

[byronsmith]

Hi All,

I'm attempting to connect to a tcp socket which provides a continuous stream of data that I need to parse.

It connects and I can see the initial connection message but that's about it, nothing else happens after that.

Do you require any further information to help with this or am I doing something so obviously wrong that I am a complete and utter idiot?

TCPStartup()
 
OnAutoItExitRegister("Cleanup")
 
Local $socket = TCPConnect("172.20.30.240", 8000)
  
TCPSend($socket, "UserName: admin\r\n");
TCPSend($socket, "Password: uberuser\r\n\r\n");
 
While 1
   Local $data = TCPRecv($socket, 128)
   ConsoleWrite($data)
    Sleep(10)
WEnd
 
Func Cleanup()
    TCPShutdown()
EndFunc

Hi,

Your code is correct for the TCP part.

Just one thing : Don't declare a variable in a continous loop otherwise it will be declared each time for nothing.

And in your case I guess it's important as you will need efficiency.

I doubt you can login to the stream like you did, is it a kind of htaccess ?

Br, FireFox.

Thank you Firefox, I figured out my dilema. Instead of the rn, I used @CRLF and we have lift off.

Thanks for taking the time to reply.
