Hello Albert, You only need a threaded approach if you have to run very long code, meaning if your code (for example to parse incoming data, or to get data that need to be sent or so) is long (so blocking).
when you write code in non threading design, the time your code is executing nothing else will happen, meaning no data is sent or received. it only will happen when your code end, that is when your application enters the message pump. hope this is somewhat clear. --- Rgds, Wilfried [TeamICS] http://www.overbyte.be/eng/overbyte/teamics.html http://www.mestdagh.biz Monday, November 26, 2007, 15:19, A Drent wrote: > Until now I alway build our applications using 'normal' sockets.
