Program Examples:TCP IP:TCPIP Winsock Client

Language: English  • 中文(简体)‎

The following example is a TCP/IP windows socket client written in C language. This example corresponds to the TCP/IP TelNet Server example. To use the code snippet, set the #define IP_ADDRESS "10.4.20.201" to the correct IP address and compile with MinGW using the following command:

C:\> mingw32-gcc.exe tcp_client2.c -lws2_32

First start the server in MC by running the script exhibited in TCP/IP TelNet Server and then run the TCP/IP client. The client will receive the data sent from the server, send data to set the MC variables x and y, query the variables' values and exit.

This example is based on the 'connect' example from MSDN: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms737625(v=vs.85).aspx
