Accept the Next Incoming Connection

See more Socket/SSL/TLS Examples

Demonstrates Socket.AcceptNext, which waits for and accepts the next incoming connection on a listening socket, delivering it as a new connected Socket.

    //  Wait for and accept the next incoming connection on the listening socket.  maxWaitMs = 0 waits

    //  includes the server-side TLS handshake.
