TCPServer

supported on WIN32LinuxDarwin

Receives data from or sends data to clients that connect via TCP/IP to this node.

Please check out the tutorial on input/output streams for further information on how to use devices. Due to technical reasons the input and output fields of a device can only be determined at runtime and therefore do not appear in this interface description. Use the "Web Interface Device Management" entry in the "Help" menu of a running InstantPlayer to determine available input and output fields of a device.

Interface

Filter: X3D only | Avalon only | All
id Name DataType PartType Default ValueType Description
SFString Address SFString initializeOnly Address of the network interface the server listens at for clients. When you do not specify this parameter, the server listens at the default network interface.
SFString Port SFString initializeOnly 0 Port the server listens at for clients. When you do not specify this parameter, the server automatically chooses an available port.
