Move a Connection into Another Socket

See more Socket/SSL/TLS Examples

Demonstrates Socket.TakeConnection, which moves the active connection from one Socket into another. The receiving object first releases any connection it previously held.

bool success = false;

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

success = listenSock.BindAndListen(5000,25);
if (success == false) {
    Debug.WriteLine(listenSock.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

Chilkat.Socket connectedSock = new Chilkat.Socket();
success = listenSock.AcceptNext(20000,connectedSock);
if (success == false) {
    Debug.WriteLine(listenSock.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

//  Move the active connection out of connectedSock and into another Socket object.  Unlike
//  TakeSocket, this does not add a member to a socket set.  After success, connectedSock holds no
//  connection.
Chilkat.Socket handlerSock = new Chilkat.Socket();
success = handlerSock.TakeConnection(connectedSock);
if (success == false) {
    Debug.WriteLine(handlerSock.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

Debug.WriteLine("Connection moved to the handler socket.");
