Library: TCP/IP client and server support (OMTCP legacy) Include: omtcp.xin

Return type: TCPConnection Returns: A TCPConnection object.

Declaration

define external TCPConnection function TCPServiceAcceptConnection
      value TCPService this-TCPService
 

TCPServiceAcceptConnection is used by a server program to listen and accept incoming client-initiated service requests.

If TCPServiceAcceptConnection fails, it still returns a TCP connection object. This failure object is in error and is closed. If the passed TCP service object itself is in error, or was never opened, TCPServiceAcceptConnection simply fails.

Argument:

• "this-TCPService" is an OMX component of type TCPService.

Example:

  local TCPService omdemo-service
  local TCPConnection client
  
  set omdemo-service to TCPServiceOpen at 5600
  
  repeat 
     set client to TCPServiceAcceptConnection omdemo-service
     ;process request
  again
