C# tcp server can only handle one client?...

[sirbenson]

Hey there,

i'm working on a tcp server that can handle many clients. Its written in c# async and callbacks. So i'm finished but the server can only handle one connection... Somewehre contains an error but after 3 days of search i don't know where. i will paste the code. Funny: The client doesn't throw any errors. The server shows only one connected client. And other clients can't connect.

    public class StateObject
    {
        public Socket WorkSocket;
        public const int BufferSize = 32;
        public byte[] Buffer = new byte[BufferSize];
        public StringBuilder Sb = new StringBuilder();
    }
    internal class TcpServer
    {
        public static Socket ServerSocket;
        public static List<SimClient> LbConnections = new List<SimClient>();

        public static async void StartTcpServerAsync()
        {
            try
            {
                await Task.Run(() =>
                {
                    ServerSocket = new Socket(AddressFamily.InterNetwork, SocketType.Stream, ProtocolType.Tcp);
                    LbConnections = new List<SimClient>();
                    var serverIp = new IPEndPoint(IPAddress.Parse(Settings.Default.IPAddress), Settings.Default.Port);

                    ServerSocket.Bind(serverIp);
                    ServerSocket.Listen(0);
                    InitServer.IsServerReady = true;

                    ServerSocket.BeginAccept(AcceptCallback, ServerSocket);
                });
            }
            catch (Exception e)
            {
                AdvancedLogging.WriteLog(e.Message + "(" + e.InnerException + ")", 2);
                InitServer.IsServerReady = false;
            }
        }

        private static void AcceptCallback(IAsyncResult result)
        {
            var listener = (Socket)result.AsyncState;
            var handler = listener.EndAccept(result);

            var state = new StateObject();
            state.WorkSocket = handler;

            LbConnections.Add(new SimClient { State = state });
            handler.BeginReceive(state.Buffer, 0, StateObject.BufferSize, SocketFlags.None, ReceiveCallback, state);
        }

        private static void ReceiveCallback(IAsyncResult result)
        {
            var state = (StateObject)result.AsyncState;
            var socket = state.WorkSocket;
            var received = socket.EndReceive(result);

            if (received <= 0)
            {
                socket.BeginReceive(state.Buffer, 0, StateObject.BufferSize, SocketFlags.None, ReceiveCallback, state);
                return;
            }

            state.Sb.Append(Encoding.ASCII.GetString(
                state.Buffer, 0, received));

            var content = state.Sb.ToString();
            if (content.IndexOf("<EOF>", StringComparison.Ordinal) > -1)
            {
                DataHandler.HandleData(content.Substring(0, content.Length - 5), state);
                state.Sb.Clear();
                socket.BeginReceive(state.Buffer, 0, StateObject.BufferSize, SocketFlags.None, ReceiveCallback, state);
            }
            else
            {
                socket.BeginReceive(state.Buffer, 0, StateObject.BufferSize, SocketFlags.None, ReceiveCallback, state);
            }
        }
    }

I don't read a whole lot of C#, but I do know that each connection to the server has to be handled by a separate thread. Your main thread will listen for the connections and will hand the responsibility for responding off to a new thread. The new thread will terminate once it completes the response to the client request.

Mh the first connection works and will not stop after connect. so the first connection can receive and send datas.
