PowerBuilder 2022 - TCP/IP Socket Example

 ** Hot News **

TCP/IP Programming

Updated Socket Application Example for PowerBuilder 2022!


        Software Tool & Die Inc. today are very pleased to announce a brand new MS-Windows Socket (2022) example application built with the latest STD Integrated Framework (2023R1). This latest release of the Socket application is also built using the latest Appeon PowerBuilder 2022 IDE and should also work with the upcoming PowerBuilder 2022 R2 Beta test version as well.

Client Application - Ready to send DW object & buffers
 
         The STD Socket example application demonstrates a significant enhancement to the the PB developer's toolbox! The Socket example showcases the TCP/IP features in the STD Integrated Framework and more importantly returns the power of Distributed PowerBuilder back to the application developer. The TCP/IP socket support in the STD Frameworks is based on the work by Tom Cervenka's Sockets objects (written in pure PB, dating back to the PowerSoft days) that utilizes MS-Windows socket API's for FTP'ing files between servers and/or peer-to-peer communications.

    In addition, the updated STD Socket example will also now work with PowerServer 2019 as well when deployed as a Web Application!

    You can download the updated STD Socket example application from the STD Framework's website by clicking here to get more productive in peer-to-peer communications with PowerBuilder! Note that an"Archive" sub-folder has also been added to this location as well. This folder contains previous versions of the socket example application for older PB releases!

 
Enjoy!


Regards ... Chris
