I have sockets working in my File Server Agent, but only using non-blocking calls, that is using "with message". Removing the "with message" bit does not return any response from the server agent.
For instance I send a payload using write payload to socket tSocket with message "messageReceived" The messageReceived handler gets triggered, and I can then read from socket tSocket until EOF -- or other delimiter it will then contain the response from the File Server Agent. If however I use write payload to socket tSocket -- blocking read from socket tSocket until EOF -- or some other delimiter doesn't matter the call times out and nothing ends up in the it or result variables. I can (and have) made the non-blocking method work, but that means I have to send all the files I want to transfer all at once, because if I send them one at a time, I need to know if the last transfer succeeded before continuing. Does anyone have an example of a blocking socket server? The example in Livecode Lessons really only focuses on non-blocking calls.
