C# 将客户端（本地窗体应用程序）连接到通过以太网连接到计算机的控制器

Question

I need to create a user interface to control a tool that is connected directly to my computer via an Ethernet cable. The controller is listening at a specified socket for connection requests.

When the connection is made the controller will broadcast streams of data.

I am currently looking to use client code similar to this example ( https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bbx2eya8(v=vs.110).aspx )

If I knew the IP address and the port number, would i be able to accomplish this connection? I'm new to socket programming so I'm not sure if this a good way to go about it.

Answer 1

If this controller is listening for socket connections and the application doesn't listen for incoming connection requests you only need a TcpClient object to start the communication.

Here is a basic sample .
