SciAbstractSocket>>#accept: not setting the socket address

Me again....

I apologize for all of the socket-related questions I have had, with switching to VA 9.

But I have another.....

My product has a client and a server. The clients send messages to the server over TCP/IP,

by creating a socket to the server.

The server listens for incoming connections, by sending #accept: to its socket

(instantiated by SciSocket newStreamSocket). The argument passed into #accept:

is supposed to be a new instance of SciSocketAddress, which gets

"updated with information about the connecting socket" (according to the method comment).

When my server picks up a message over this socket, it logs the address of the sender,

by sending #asString to the socketAddress that I passed to #accept:.

In VA9, this is now giving me back: "EINVAL (10022): Invalid argument".

When I inspect the socketAddress, family = 2, but all other instance variables are nil.

So...it makes me think that #accept: is no longer setting the information in the socketAddress

argument.

I hope this all makes sense.

Anyone with some insight?

Regards,

Julian

Hi Julian

We are using #getPeerName to get information about the connecting socket. And yes, in VA 9.1.1 address and port of aClientSocketAddress are nil after used by #accept:

We never use aClientSocketAddress after #accept:

aClientSocketAddress := SciSocketAddress new.
aClientSocket := self serverSocket accept: aClientSocketAddress.

aClientSocket getPeerName
->
NetworkAddress <172.23.2.124 - Port 51490 Family 2>

That worked perfectly.

Thank you, Norbert!!
