C++ in Socket network programming examples
Now almost all C/C++ background programs need to carry out network communication, which can be realized in two ways: using the system's underlying socket or using the existing encapsulated network library. This paper summarizes the two approaches and introduces a lightweight network communication library, ZeroMQ.
1. Basic Scoket programming
There is a lot of information available on the basic scoket programming network, and the authors cite an article to briefly explain.
Programming based on socket basically consists of the following six steps:
1. socket() function
2. bind() function
3. listen(), connect() functions
4. accept() function
5. read(), write(), etc
6. close() function
Here is a direct reference to the code description in the article.
// The server side
#include<stdio.h>
#include<stdlib.h>
#include<string.h>
#include<errno.h>
#include<sys/types.h>
#include<sys/socket.h>
#include<netinet/in.h>
#define MAXLINE 4096
int main(int argc, char** argv)
{
int listenfd, connfd;
struct sockaddr_in servaddr;
char buff[4096];
int n;
if( (listenfd = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, 0)) == -1 ){
printf("create socket error: %s(errno: %d)\n",strerror(errno),errno);
exit(0);
}
memset(&servaddr, 0, sizeof(servaddr));
servaddr.sin_family = AF_INET;
servaddr.sin_addr.s_addr = htonl(INADDR_ANY);
servaddr.sin_port = htons(6666);
if( bind(listenfd, (struct sockaddr*)&servaddr, sizeof(servaddr)) == -1){
printf("bind socket error: %s(errno: %d)\n",strerror(errno),errno);
exit(0);
}
if( listen(listenfd, 10) == -1){
printf("listen socket error: %s(errno: %d)\n",strerror(errno),errno);
exit(0);
}
printf("======waiting for client's request======\n");
while(1){
if( (connfd = accept(listenfd, (struct sockaddr*)NULL, NULL)) == -1){
printf("accept socket error: %s(errno: %d)",strerror(errno),errno);
continue;
}
n = recv(connfd, buff, MAXLINE, 0);
buff[n] = '\0';
printf("recv msg from client: %s\n", buff);
close(connfd);
}
close(listenfd);
}
The client
#include<stdio.h>
#include<stdlib.h>
#include<string.h>
#include<errno.h>
#include<sys/types.h>
#include<sys/socket.h>
#include<netinet/in.h>
#define MAXLINE 4096
int main(int argc, char** argv)
{
int sockfd, n;
char recvline[4096], sendline[4096];
struct sockaddr_in servaddr;
if( argc != 2){
printf("usage: ./client <ipaddress>\n");
exit(0);
}
if( (sockfd = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, 0)) < 0){
printf("create socket error: %s(errno: %d)\n", strerror(errno),errno);
exit(0);
}
memset(&servaddr, 0, sizeof(servaddr));
servaddr.sin_family = AF_INET;
servaddr.sin_port = htons(6666);
if( inet_pton(AF_INET, argv[1], &servaddr.sin_addr) <= 0){
printf("inet_pton error for %s\n",argv[1]);
exit(0);
}
if( connect(sockfd, (struct sockaddr*)&servaddr, sizeof(servaddr)) < 0){
printf("connect error: %s(errno: %d)\n",strerror(errno),errno);
exit(0);
}
printf("send msg to server: \n");
fgets(sendline, 4096, stdin);
if( send(sockfd, sendline, strlen(sendline), 0) < 0)
{
printf("send msg error: %s(errno: %d)\n", strerror(errno), errno);
exit(0);
}
close(sockfd);
exit(0);
}
