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.

load ./chilkat.dll

set success 0

set socket [new_CkSocket]

#  Connect to the server using TLS.
set bTls 1
set maxWaitMs 5000
set success [CkSocket_Connect $socket "example.com" 5000 $bTls $maxWaitMs]
if {$success == 0} then {
    puts [CkSocket_lastErrorText $socket]
    delete_CkSocket $socket
    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.
set dupSock [new_CkSocket]

set success [CkSocket_DupSocket $socket $dupSock]
if {$success == 0} then {
    puts [CkSocket_lastErrorText $socket]
    delete_CkSocket $socket
    delete_CkSocket $dupSock
    exit
}

puts "Duplicate socket wrapper created."
