Send ASCII File over TCP/IP

[stke]

I want to send a complete ascii-file over tcp/ip from one application to another. Is this possible in CVI 6.0?

Isn't FTP already does that? Why re-invent.

Hi stke,

These are a few documents and examples of how to create Client/Server TCP connections.

Also, you could try using the DataSocket technology that is provided. Here is an overview of DataSocket.

Hope this helps! Good Luck!

Hi Jeremy L,

thank you for your answer, but i know these examples. We have already applications which sends strings from one to another. Now the requirements for these applications have been extended and we have to send an ascii file from one to the other application. I have tried to implement this, but I always got an error when sending from the server to the client. Now I look for an example where this task is solved.

Hi stke,

I found an example of how to send ASCII text files over Datasocket. Hopefully this is what you are looking for. Also, what error are you getting when you attempt to send from server to client? Maybe we can figure out what's going wrong from that error code. Thanks!
