Re: Help with roStreamSocket data

Can you clear the message port and have it revert back to sync ?
I believe I tried this and it didn't.

Re: Help with roStreamSocket data

Setting a socket's message port back to invalid after having set it to a real port is coded to set the socket's behavior back to sync, and an off-the-cuff connect() test that does so works for me.
Our sample apps and the tests in the test suite either leave it sync or set it to async once.

Re: Help with roStreamSocket data

What I tried is:

1. connect() - host
2. send() - request
3. set msg port
4. receive() - multiple blocks
5. clear msg port to invalid
6. send() - another request

The send at 6, always returned 0 bytes

Re: Help with roStreamSocket data

That same test of using sync for connect() and sendStr(), setting a message port for async receiveStr(), and then setting the socket's message port to invalid for another sendStr() worked fine for me. Could we get a post of a short executable sample that shows the problem?

OK, I hope this shows something !

Re: Help with roStreamSocket data

By some of the comments in the output, it seems like the sample code might be trying to reuse a closed socket or a previously connected socket?
It doesn't have a main that calls the functions, so I can't try it myself either.
Are we still trying to determine whether sync send works on a socket after async receive?

The test code I used to demonstrate the case I thought we were discussing is below. Can you tell me what it's missing from what you're trying to do?

Script:
function main()
HttpGet = "GET / HTTP/1.1" + chr(13) + chr(10) + chr(13) + chr(10)
socket = CreateObject("roStreamSocket")
server = CreateObject("roSocketAddress")
server.setAddress("www.roku.com:80")
socket.setSendToAddress(server)

' sync
socket.connect()
print "Test: sent"; socket.sendStr(HttpGet); " bytes"

' async
port = CreateObject("roMessagePort")
socket.setMessagePort(port)
socket.notifyReadable(true)
msg = wait(5 * 1000, port)
if type(msg)="roSocketEvent" and socket.isReadable()
input = socket.receiveStr(1000)
print "Test: received"; Len(input); " bytes" '; ", input:"; chr(10); input
end if

' sync
socket.setMessagePort(invalid)
print "Test: sent"; socket.sendStr(HttpGet); " bytes"
end function


Output:
------ Running ------
Test: sent 18 bytes
Test: received 513 bytes
Test: sent 18 bytes
