QTcpServer::hasPendingConnections () - socket creation issue

[pdoria]

Dear All,

From the fine QT manual:
"This virtual function is called by QTcpServer when a new connection is available. The socketDescriptor argument is the native socket descriptor for the accepted connection.
The base implementation creates a QTcpSocket, sets the socket descriptor and then stores the QTcpSocket in an internal list of pending connections. Finally newConnection() is emitted.
Reimplement this function to alter the server's behavior when a connection is available."

Now the question is:
reimplementing the function prevents the creation of a QTcpSocket? -- meaning that I'm only interested in the socketDescriptor for passing it into another thread and creating the socket there...

I didnt get u fully.

here is how u do

u have to modify the incomingconnection(int socketDescriptor).

create a class:

class CTest: public QTcpServer
{
    Q_OBJECT
 
public:
    CTest(QObject *parent = 0);
 
protected:
    void incomingConnection(int socketDescriptor);
}

class CTest: public QTcpServer
{
    Q_OBJECT

public:
    CTest(QObject *parent = 0);
	
protected:
    void incomingConnection(int socketDescriptor);
}

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

From ur main application, derive the pointer or object of this class and then start server by listening.

Then u will get socketDescriptor everytime a new client connect.

Hope this helps.
