Get number of pending connections with TCP

[CalebAlexander]

Basically I need to get a count for the pending connections before using TCPAccept().  Is this possible?  I'm unable to find a solution after searching.

Basically TCPListen

I'm trying to see how many pending connections there are on the socket.

Say 10 clients used TCPConnect() to connect to my socket I created with TCPListen().

If I don't use TCPAccept() on them, they are in a "pending" stage, waiting for the connection to be established. 

I'm trying to find out how many are waiting to be accepted.

Can you have multiple connections on one socket?

EDIT: For the record, I'm not big TCP expert, just replying in lieu of someone who is.

You have a listening socket to accept connections on, and when you use TCPAccept() on

it, it gives you a new socket you save and use to TCPSend() and TCPRecv() on and so forth.

Before you accept the connections, they are considered pending.

TCPListen ( IPAddr, port [, MaxPendingConnection] )

The MaxPendingConnection parameter tells the listening socket how many can sit in the "pending" stage at a time.

I'm trying to find out just how many are waiting to be accepted.

I see, does not say much about it.

I'd test it and look at @Extended, sometimes it's not documented.

The >TCP Connection Viewer by trancexx should give you an idea how to retrieve the needed info.

Thanks I'll have a look through it
