I have got to the bottom of the Error 10048
This means the port you are trying to use is already used and thus is no more available.
It seems that the order in witch you assign values to the TWSocket properties when you want to open a client is important - so now I can open and close the client heaps of times with out the error 10048 being raised :-) The code I was using looked like this TheTCPClientSocket->Proto = "tcp"; TheTCPClientSocket->Port = TCP_ClientPort; TheTCPClientSocket->Addr = TCP_ClientAddress; TheTCPClientSocket->LocalPort = TCP_ClientPort; TheTCPClientSocket->LocalAddr = "0.0.0.0"; TheTCPClientSocket->Connect(); The correct code that works looks like this TheTCPClientSocket->Addr = TCP_ClientAddress; TheTCPClientSocket->Proto = "tcp"; TheTCPClientSocket->Port = TCP_ClientPort; TheTCPClientSocket->Connect();
Does anyone know why this is the case ???
When you don't assign the LocalPort, Windows automatically assign an available local port. This is usually what is done for connecting to a remote host. If you have any reason not to do so, just explain why.
