member this.AcceptTcpClient : unit -> System.Net.Sockets.TcpClient

Public Function AcceptTcpClient () As TcpClient

Returns

TcpClient

A TcpClient used to send and receive data.

Exceptions

InvalidOperationException

The listener has not been started with a call to Start().

SocketException

Use the ErrorCode property to obtain the specific error code. When you have obtained this code, you can refer to the Windows Sockets version 2 API error code documentation for a detailed description of the error.

Examples

In the following code example, the AcceptTcpClient method is used to return a TcpClient. This TcpClient is used to communicate with the newly connected client.

/**
* This program shows how to use the TcpListener class. 
* It creates a TcpListener that listens on the specified port (13000). 
* To run this program at the command line you enter:
* cs_tcpserver
* Any TcpClient that wants to use this server
* has to explicitly connect to an address obtained by the combination of
* the server on which this TcpServer is running and the port 13000. 
* This TcpServer simply echoes back the message sent by the TcpClient, after
* translating it into uppercase.

Remarks

AcceptTcpClient is a blocking method that returns a TcpClient that you can use to send and receive data. Use the Pending method to determine if connection requests are available in the incoming connection queue if you want to avoid blocking.

Use the TcpClient.GetStream method to obtain the underlying NetworkStream of the returned TcpClient. The NetworkStream will provide you with methods for sending and receiving with the remote host. When you are through with the TcpClient, be sure to call its Close method. If you want greater flexibility than a TcpClient offers, consider using AcceptSocket.
