问题
I have two programs for server and client. My server can connect to multiple client. But the problem right now I am facing is that, I want to display some message from the server side to client side but I am unable to do that. Both the server and client program are provided below. I think the syntax that is preventing me to print the message on the client side is scanfwhich is used the code of client (second line of the while loop). I am not getting any solution for that about how to display the two messages from the server side when the client will get connected.
Problem 1:
Server side messages that I want to display on the client side when client gets connected : (can be found in the new_connection_handler function)
message = "This is connection handler\n";
message = "Type something \n";
Problem 2:
Why I need to use the sleep (2) on the client side? If I do not use the sleep (2), then I cannot receive the data sent by the client on the client side. The data shows when I send something second time from the client side.
Problem 3:
Is it possible to write both the client and server code together and compile and run it using command line arguments?

回答1:
Your frames are out of sync You open your client handling thread with two sends from the server. Without your "sleep", you pick up one, but not the other. your buffer sizes are also not being used correctly, as they're inconsistently being treated as terminated strings when in fact their send length is based on strlen (which is ok, so long as it is consistent).
I think this is what you're trying to do, with a few modifications:
Client Code
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <sys/socket.h>
#include <arpa/inet.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <stdint.h>
int main(int argc , char *argv[])
{
int sock;
struct sockaddr_in server;
char message[1000] , server_reply[2000];
int len;
//Create socket
sock = socket(AF_INET , SOCK_STREAM , 0);
if (sock == -1)
{
printf("Could not create socket");
}
puts("Socket created");
server.sin_addr.s_addr = inet_addr("127.0.0.1");
server.sin_family = AF_INET;
server.sin_port = htons( 8888 );
//Connect to remote server
if (connect(sock , (struct sockaddr *)&server , sizeof(server)) < 0)
{
perror("connect failed. Error");
return 1;
}
puts("Connected\n");
//keep communicating with server
while((len = recv(sock, server_reply, sizeof(server_reply), 0)) > 0)
{
printf("Server reply: %.*s", len, server_reply);
printf("Enter message : ");
if (fgets(message, sizeof(message), stdin) == NULL)
break;
//Send some data
if( send(sock , message , strlen(message) , 0) < 0)
{
puts("Send failed");
return 1;
}
}
close(sock);
return 0;
}
Server Code
#include<stdio.h>
#include<string.h>
#include<stdlib.h>
#include<sys/socket.h>
#include<arpa/inet.h>
#include<unistd.h>
#include<pthread.h>
#include<stdint.h>
#define MAX_CLIENTS 5
//the thread function
void *new_connection_handler(void *);
int main(int argc , char *argv[])
{
int socket_desc , client_sock;
struct sockaddr_in server , client;
socklen_t c = sizeof(client);
//Create socket
socket_desc = socket(AF_INET , SOCK_STREAM , 0);
if (socket_desc == -1)
{
printf("Could not create socket");
}
//Prepare the sockaddr_in structure
server.sin_family = AF_INET;
server.sin_addr.s_addr = INADDR_ANY;
server.sin_port = htons( 8888 );
bzero (&server.sin_zero, 8);
//Bind
if( bind(socket_desc,(struct sockaddr *)&server , sizeof(server)) < 0)
{
//print the error message
perror("bind failed. Error");
return 1;
}
//Listen
listen(socket_desc , MAX_CLIENTS);
//Accept and incoming connection
printf("Waiting for incoming connections\n");
c = sizeof(client);
while( (client_sock = accept(socket_desc, (struct sockaddr *)&client, &c)) )
{
printf("Connection accepted");
pthread_t thread_id;
if( pthread_create( &thread_id , NULL , new_connection_handler , (void*) (intptr_t)client_sock) < 0)
{
perror("could not create thread");
return 1;
}
printf("Handler assigned\n");
}
if (client_sock < 0)
{
perror("accept failed");
return 1;
}
return 0;
}
void *new_connection_handler(void *socket_desc)
{
//Get the socket descriptor
int sock = (intptr_t)socket_desc;
int read_size = 0;
char client_message[2000];
static const char rdy[] = "READY\n";
write(sock, rdy, sizeof(rdy)-1);
//Receive a message from client
while( (read_size = recv(sock , client_message , sizeof(client_message) , 0)) > 0 )
write(sock , client_message , read_size);
if(read_size == 0)
{
printf("Client disconnected\n");
fflush(stdout);
}
else if(read_size == -1)
{
perror("recv failed");
}
return 0;
}
This still needs better join-logic on the client threads, but if you paste and compile each with appropriate flags I think it does what you're trying to achieve.
Best of luck.
