Hi
I have searched high and low to figure this one out. There
does not
seems to be a an accessible way of getting a unique key for a
socket. I
have learned that port numbers count a great deal but really
shouldn't
there be some internal numbering or representation of each
socket that
the developer can use in maps etc? Lets say I want to store
statistics
for each individual client, but I don't want the client to
"log in" or
something similiar. I want to automatically remember the
handshake done
by the underlying TCP connection.
Is it possible to retrieve a unique key for a given socket? If
this has
been discussed before it is very well hidden in the depths of
asgar, so
please then enlighten me.
Cheers.
Your Socket object *is* the key. It's a reference, it has a
memory address as value.
I don't know why but for some reason this did not come to my
mind. LOL
