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.

Add-Type -Path "C:\chilkat\ChilkatDotNet47-x64\ChilkatDotNet47.dll"

$success = $false

$socket = New-Object Chilkat.Socket

#  Connect to the server using TLS.
$bTls = $true
$maxWaitMs = 5000
$success = $socket.Connect("example.com",5000,$bTls,$maxWaitMs)
if ($success -eq $false) {
    $($socket.LastErrorText)
    exit
}

#  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.
$dupSock = New-Object Chilkat.Socket
$success = $socket.DupSocket($dupSock)
if ($success -eq $false) {
    $($socket.LastErrorText)
    exit
}
