Duplicate a Socket Wrapper Sharing the Connection

See more Socket/SSL/TLS Examples

Demonstrates Socket.DupSocket, which populates a destination Socket with another wrapper that shares this object's underlying connection.

Background. The shared connection is reference-counted, and all wrappers operate on the same live connection. The destination first releases any connection it previously held.

bool success = false;

Chilkat.Socket socket = new Chilkat.Socket();

//  Connect to the server using TLS.
bool bTls = true;
int maxWaitMs = 5000;
success = socket.Connect("example.com",5000,bTls,maxWaitMs);
if (success == false) {
    Debug.WriteLine(socket.LastErrorText);

//  Create a second Socket wrapper that shares this object's underlying connection.  Both wrappers
//  operate on the same live connection; the shared connection is reference-counted.
Chilkat.Socket dupSock = new Chilkat.Socket();
success = socket.DupSocket(dupSock);
if (success == false) {
    Debug.WriteLine(socket.LastErrorText);

Debug.WriteLine("Duplicate socket wrapper created.");
