send/receive msg/data

[jason78944545]

hi i try do creat a app to send/receive data between pc and pocket i have tested many examples using the TcpClient Class but in every one when the pocket is in listen mode they simple block the app and wait for any data to receive. he can receive the data but the app block and i can´t use the app for nothing :(
any one have the same problem?
there is any easy way like winsock in vb6 that can send and receive data without this problem?
thanks a lot for your help

I didn't think you could listen on the pocket pc end of such a connection. I posted a thread with some classes for communicating via TCP a couple years back, but those classes assumed that the desktop was listening, and the connection request always came from the portable. That was back in 2003, though, and life may be different now.

Hi,
put the TCP stuff in a separate thread?
Or use non-blocking, and 'peek' to see if there is data, in a timely fashion?

"use non-blocking, and 'peek' to see if there is data, in a timely fashion?"
