This thread is for discussions of A Chat Client/Server Program for C#.

I want to run this chat client program (TalkUser ) when I click a button on another form. How can i intergrate this chat program with that other c# program.

Clicking a button of that programs form .... should run this "TalkUser" program.
Pls tell me how to do it.

This was an excellent working example for me - showed all the major working parts in a simple and clear way.

For those of you communicating with a Flash client you might want to use:

SW.Write("<some message>\0");

instead of SW.WriteLine("<some message>");

but that's just Flash - it needs Zero terminated strings.

Good job dude!

Wonderful example but grokuk, you forgot the newline...

Instead of

SW.WriteLine("<some message>"); // WriteLine auto-adds the newline

dont use




SW.Write("<some message>\0"); // You zero-terminated the line but forgot the nl

but use

SW.Write("<some message>\n\0"); // Here it is


Greetings.

Hi there!

Thank you for this article. This is exactly what i need for my purposes. I've converted your server code into a Windows Service and runing it on our dedicated server. Everything works better than OK, except one frustrating thing. Both server and client when running are taking all the 100% of CPU usage. System is slowing down dramaticly and i can't release a client with a perfomance like that.

Is there any way to speed up both client and server?

Best regards!
