#include <wx/sckipc.h>
A wxTCPClient object represents the client part of a client-server conversation.
It emulates a DDE-style protocol, but uses TCP/IP which is available on most platforms.
A DDE-based implementation for Windows is available using wxDDEClient.
To create a client which can communicate with a suitable server, you need to derive a class from wxTCPConnection and another from wxTCPClient. The custom wxTCPConnection class will intercept communications in a 'conversation' with a server, and the custom wxTCPServer is required so that a user-overridden wxTCPClient::OnMakeConnection() member can return a wxTCPConnection of the required class, when a connection is made.

virtual wxConnectionBase * | MakeConnection (const wxString &host, const wxString &service, const wxString &topic) |
Tries to make a connection with a server specified by the host (a machine name under Unix), service name (must contain an integer port number under Unix), and a topic string. More... | |
virtual wxConnectionBase * | OnMakeConnection () |
The type of wxTCPConnection returned from a MakeConnection() call can be altered by deriving the OnMakeConnection member to return your own derived connection object. More... | |
virtual bool | ValidHost (const wxString &host) |
Returns true if this is a valid host name, false otherwise. More... | |

wxObject (const wxObject &other) | |
Copy ctor. More... | |
virtual | ~wxObject () |
Destructor. More... | |
virtual wxClassInfo * | GetClassInfo () const |
This virtual function is redefined for every class that requires run-time type information, when using the wxDECLARE_CLASS macro (or similar). More... | |
wxObjectRefData * | GetRefData () const |
Returns the wxObject::m_refData pointer, i.e. the data referenced by this object. More... | |
bool | IsKindOf (const wxClassInfo *info) const |
Determines whether this class is a subclass of (or the same class as) the given class. More... | |
bool | IsSameAs (const wxObject &obj) const |
Returns true if this object has the same data pointer as obj. More... | |
void | Ref (const wxObject &clone) |
Makes this object refer to the data in clone. More... | |
void | SetRefData (wxObjectRefData *data) |
Sets the wxObject::m_refData pointer. More... | |
void | UnRef () |
Decrements the reference count in the associated data, and if it is zero, deletes the data. More... | |
void | UnShare () |
This is the same of AllocExclusive() but this method is public. More... | |
void | operator delete (void *buf) |
The delete operator is defined for debugging versions of the library only, when the identifier __WXDEBUG__ is defined. More... | |
void * | operator new (size_t size, const wxString &filename=NULL, int lineNum=0) |
The new operator is defined for debugging versions of the library only, when the identifier __WXDEBUG__ is defined. More... | |

wxTCPClient::wxTCPClient | ( | ) |
Constructs a client object.
|
virtual |
Tries to make a connection with a server specified by the host (a machine name under Unix), service name (must contain an integer port number under Unix), and a topic string.
If the server allows a connection, a wxTCPConnection object will be returned.
The type of wxTCPConnection returned can be altered by overriding the OnMakeConnection() member to return your own derived connection object.
|
virtual |
The type of wxTCPConnection returned from a MakeConnection() call can be altered by deriving the OnMakeConnection member to return your own derived connection object.
By default, a wxTCPConnection object is returned.
The advantage of deriving your own connection class is that it will enable you to intercept messages initiated by the server, such as wxTCPConnection::OnAdvise(). You may also want to store application-specific data in instances of the new class.

virtual |
Returns true if this is a valid host name, false otherwise.
