client

Hi all,

I have a question about the usage of TCPListener in .NET... I am thinking about a client/server application and being new to this kind of application I have search a bit around the web and the solution which come the more often is to create a new thread for each new client connection.

This solution seem fine but I was wondering if it was still usable with a application where you can have thousands of client at the same time ?

Of course if there is thousands of client the application will not be hosted on a small desktop but on a real server, but is it the way to design an application for a large number of client ?

Thank for help.

TcpListener is queuing connections faster than I can clear them

as seen on Stack Overflow - Search for 'Stack Overflow'
As I understand it, TcpListener will queue connections once you call Start(). Each time you call AcceptTcpClient (or BeginAcceptTcpClient), it will dequeue one item from the queue. If we load test our TcpListener app by sending 1,000 connections to it at once, the queue builds far faster than we… >>> More
