I'm working on a TCP communication program for the chemestry analyzer "Mindray BS240". The problem is that the analyzer keep disconnecting and reconnecting (every 30s). Here is my code, what did I miss ?
private void startTcpListner()
{
try
{
var port = settings.LisPort;
IPAddress localAddr = IPAddress.Parse(settings.LisIpAddress);
// TcpListener server = new TcpListener(port);
server = new TcpListener(localAddr, port);
// Start listening for client requests.
server.Start();
// Buffer for reading data
var bytes = new byte[256];
String data = null;
LogManager.GetCurrentClassLogger().Info("Waiting for a connection... ");
// Perform a blocking call to accept requests.
// You could also use server.AcceptSocket() here.
var client = server.AcceptTcpClient();
LogManager.GetCurrentClassLogger().Info("Connected !");
data = null;
// Get a stream object for reading and writing
stream = client.GetStream();
// Enter the listening loop.
while (true)
{
while (!stream.DataAvailable) ;
int i;
// Loop to receive all the data sent by the client.
while ((i = stream.Read(bytes, 0, bytes.Length)) != 0)
{
// Translate data bytes to a ASCII string.
var line = Encoding.UTF8.GetString(bytes, 0, i);
LogManager.GetCurrentClassLogger().Info("Received: {0}", line);
data += line;
if (line.Length > 3 &&
line[line.Length - 2] == Hl7Helper.FileSeparator &&
line[line.Length - 1] == Hl7Helper.CarriageReturn)
{
handleMessage(data);
data = null;
}
}
}
}
catch (SocketException e)
{
LogManager.GetCurrentClassLogger().Error("SocketException: {0}", e);
}
catch (Exception e)
{
LogManager.GetCurrentClassLogger().Error(e);
}
finally
{
// Stop listening for new clients.
server.Stop();
}
}
In the log file, I have :
Waiting for a connection...
Connected !
