Re: stop Socket.BeginReceive before comlpete

Hi Semedao,

Thanks for your information.
So far I still have some confusion.
It seems that you are useing TCP hole punching.
Here is a document for your reference.
Peer-to-Peer Communication Across Network Address Translators
http://www.brynosaurus.com/pub/net/p2pnat/

From the document, it seems that we need two sockets on one port for TCP
hole punching.

Also from your description, you will also need the socket to listen to the
Server.(Here I understand you have two clients(doing P2P), and a Server who
coordinate the two clients).
Can you enlaborator how did you listen to the Server? or did you just want
to receive data from Server?

Also based on my knowledge, assume we established the TCP connection
between the two clients without the Server, the following communication
should be between client1 and client2.
e.g.
Assume the Socket serversocket the socket that communicate with client
after listen/accept.

Socket serversocket;
Thread1()
{
serversocket.Receive();//it will block for incoming data.
}
Thread2()
{
serversocket.Send();//based on my test, even if serversocket is blocked on
receive, it still can send data.
}

So I just wonder why you need to interrupte the Thread1 that the
serversocket.Receive?

Can you show some code about you stop the thread1 that call socket.Receive
and use that socket to listen to the Server messge?

If you have any concern, you may send an Email to me via removing "online"
from my email address.
Thanks!
