Socket Chat Server [HELP]
Scottie1972
has anyone built a working application using Sockets?
i mean from PC to PC via the internet, NOT PC to PC via a local network.

what i am looking for is away for a certain group of people to be able to connect to a Socket chat server and all have chat @ the same time. as in a socket chat application.

what i am building is a project that has multiple smaller projects built into it. (dont ask, to much to exspain)
and i need a socket chat app to help "alliance" members to chat back and forth.

if anyone has a working example that does not thru exceptions at Eixt() then please send me a copy.
i will gladdly pay you for a good example. not a re-write of some garbage from the web.

This sample might be useful: viewtopic.php?f=29&t=6747&p=50222#p50222
This is a basic example to show how TCP client/server sockets may be used. It is worth mentioning that a chat system can have many requirements/features, and your protocol will need to be designed around these.
