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.

#include <CkSocketW.h>

void ChilkatSample(void)
    {
    bool success = false;

    CkSocketW listenSock;

    success = listenSock.BindAndListen(5000,25);
    if (success == false) {
        wprintf(L"%s\n",listenSock.lastErrorText());
        return;
    }

    CkSocketW connectedSock;
    success = listenSock.AcceptNext(20000,connectedSock);
    if (success == false) {
        wprintf(L"%s\n",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.
    CkSocketW handlerSock;
    success = handlerSock.TakeConnection(connectedSock);
    if (success == false) {
        wprintf(L"%s\n",handlerSock.lastErrorText());
        return;
    }

    wprintf(L"Connection moved to the handler socket.\n");
    }
