TCP multi-client continous connection/data exchange
Dan Ricafort posted at Tuesday, November 18, 2008 12:54 AM

Hi,


I am wondering how should I implement my multi client-server application.


When the connection of a client is established with the server and the 


exchange was done, can I just retain the connection until the client initiates to disconnect?


Or just disconnect whenever a request/response was finished then establish a new connection again if it is needed


I am just concerned that if the connection will be continous it may be not a good choice because of network issues (bandwidth,security or anything) or client machine issues (memory,local resource or anything)


I hope anyone can help me on this.


 


TIA- Dan

thanks lalji 


thanks for the comment arvind.


The link was very helpful, that can help me implement it.


But I still need some suggestions on which is better:


continously alive connection or just a frequent reconnection?


how does multi player games implement it?


does anyone have an idea? does the connection always alive until the game finish?
