I've been trying to sort out a stable client/server connection with ICS but I'm having a few difficulties, and I'm thinking that maybe my understanding of how it works may be a little wrong.
Initially, I am building one application which can act as a client & server, and put one on the remote machine and for them to talk to each other. I set the IP addresses & ports differently on each. What I have: 1 x TWSocket for sending messages to a remote server 1 x TWSocketServer for receiving messages from a remote system The TWSocketServer creates a new TTcpSrvClient for each incoming connection. Now, I believe that it works like this: To send a message, I use TWSocket component. The remote machine then sees an incoming connection in TWSocketServer and creates a TTcpSrvClient for that connection. The TTcpSrvClient then receives the message and a reply can be sent back through this component. This reply is then picked up back in the TWSocket that sent it. When the TWSocket closes the connection, the TTcpSrvClient is automatically deleted and things go back to square one. Is that the correct logic for it all? I have tried a number of different ways of doing this, but each way doesn't seem to have reliable communications. I've looked at the examples for these components, and this way is my understanding of them, but I want to be sure hence my posting here, cause something is still not quite right.
