Can't connect from my android phone

[FarooqKhattak]

Hi, I am trying to connect with the server from my phone on ip 127.0.0.1, but i got no socket found exception. although my pc and phone are on the same network too.

Try using the IP address of your machine assigned by your router. 127.0.0.1 is a loopback and doesn't get exposed on the network. Make sure your firewall allows the port

Thanks connection is established. and now i copied send message code from repository. but it doesn't recognize it's own methods.

Note: i only installed Tcp.Net.Server package bcz i only need that. my client is my mobile.

Moreover, as we know that i install Tcp.Net.Server package only. so according to the documentation, i should have found the server.asyncStart() method. but unfortunately, i don't have server.asyncStart or Stop method available except those simple Start and Stop methods. Why is that?

Apologies, the documentation is a bit outdated and its on my short-term todos to update it.

Per your image: Connections is an IEnumerable or IEnumerable<IdentityTcpServer>, depending on which server you use. You can do:

• ConnectionTcpServer[] connections = server,Connections.ToArray();

The SendToConnectionAsync function is erroring for 2 reasons:

1. Packet has been deprecated. The 2 new functions are:

• Task SendToConnectionAsync(string message, Z connection, CancellationToken cancellationToken = default);
• Task SendToConnectionAsync(byte[] message, Z connection, CancellationToken cancellationToken = default);

Get rid of Packet and change your message to either string or byte[]

2. SendToConnectionAsync is not contained in an async method. Wrap it in a Task -> e.g.

• Task.Run(async () => { await server.SendToConnectiobAsync()});

Lastly, TcpListener, which is what is used for the underlying server socket, only exposes Start() and Stop(). They are not async since there is no delay - the socket just opens or closes without waiting for anothre task. Its a synchronous operation to start and stop and TcpListener.

The documentation is old and I need to update it. Apologies again

Thanks for sharing. It is very helpful
