I have been looking around the questions, but those are all for files.
My question is:
How can I Send/Receive a large byte (Approx 1-2MB) in one connection?
Client:
TcpClient tcpclnt = new TcpClient();
var result = tcpclnt.BeginConnect(User.IP, User.Port, null, null);
var success = result.AsyncWaitHandle.WaitOne(TimeSpan.FromSeconds(3));
if (!success)
{
return "Failed to connect!";
}
Stream stm = tcpclnt.GetStream();
UTF8Encoding asen = new UTF8Encoding();
msg = Encrypter.EncryptData(msg);
byte[] ba = asen.GetBytes(msg);
stm.Write(ba, 0, ba.Length); // Switch this to?
Server:
System.Net.Sockets.Socket s = myList.AcceptSocket();
byte[] b = new byte[3000000];
int k = s.Receive(b); // Switch this to?
string message = Encoding.UTF8.GetString(b, 0, k);
SOLUTION:
Server code, took me a little while to make it cool:
System.Net.Sockets.Socket s = myList.AcceptSocket(); // Accept the connection
Stream stream = new NetworkStream(s); // Create the stream object
byte[] leng = new byte[4]; // We will put the length of the upcoming message in a 4 length array
int k2 = s.Receive(leng); // Receive the upcoming message length
if (BitConverter.IsLittleEndian)
{
Array.Reverse(leng);
}
int upcominglength = (BitConverter.ToInt32(leng, 0)); // Convert it to int
byte[] b = ByteReader(upcominglength, stream); // Create the space for the bigger message, read all bytes until the received length!
string message = Encoding.UTF8.GetString(b, 0, b.Length); // Convert it to string!
internal byte[] ByteReader(int length, Stream stream)
{
byte[] data = new byte[length];
using (MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream())
{
int numBytesRead;
int numBytesReadsofar = 0;
while (true)
{
numBytesRead = stream.Read(data, 0, data.Length);
numBytesReadsofar += numBytesRead;
ms.Write(data, 0, numBytesRead);
if (numBytesReadsofar == length)
{
break;
}
}
return ms.ToArray();
}
}
Client code, and it is working nicely!:
var result = tcpclnt.BeginConnect(User.IP, User.Port, null, null);
var success = result.AsyncWaitHandle.WaitOne(TimeSpan.FromSeconds(3)); // Connect with timeout
if (!success)
{
return "Failed to connect!";
}
Stream stm = tcpclnt.GetStream(); // get the stream
UTF8Encoding asen = new UTF8Encoding();
byte[] ba = asen.GetBytes(msg); // get the bytes of the message we are sending
byte[] intBytes = BitConverter.GetBytes(ba.Length); // Get the length of that in bytes
if (BitConverter.IsLittleEndian)
{
Array.Reverse(intBytes);
}
stm.Write(intBytes, 0, intBytes.Length); // Write the length in the stream!
stm.Flush(); // Clear the buffer!
stm.Write(ba, 0, ba.Length); // Write the message we are sending!
// If we have answers....
byte[] bb = new byte[10000];
int k = stm.Read(bb, 0, 10000);
string mmessage = Encoding.UTF8.GetString(bb, 0, k);
// If we have answers....
tcpclnt.Close(); // Close the socket
