TWSocketCounter has been added to TWSocket in V7 with properties ConnectTick, ConnectDT, LastAliveTick, LastRecvTick and LastSendTick. That makes it very easy to implement a custom timeout.

If you have a better idea than TIcsThreadTimer, demo in the MiscDemos folder, please let us know. -- Arno Garrels -- To unsubscribe or change your settings for TWSocket mailing list please goto http://lists.elists.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/twsocket Visit our website at http://www.overbyte.be
