no networking

Post by dean.bittner » Fri Dec 02, 2011 3:35 pm

I have created an app that works great on the desktop. When I reply to the simulator/ emulator or a real device, there is absolutely no networking. The accept, open, write all fail silently. No open sockets.

Does anyone know what I'm missing. Something fundamental I suspect?

Hi Dean,

welcome to the forum! :D

Well, sockets are not (yet) supported on iOS!
Please check the "iOS Release Notes" -> Menu: Help, to see what's currently supported and what isn't.

Hi,

There is an rrsockets external in the iOS SDK. This might work for you.

You could build a tiny web server into your desktop application use put url/get url or even post url to communicate with the desktop computer.

Kind regards,

Hi Mark,

RunRev does a damn good job hiding these resources :D
