<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
In VB 6, I have a timer on a form. In its _timer method, I send data out on a Winsock to another vb app to which it is connected via the socket.....<br />
<br />
I set breakpoints in the sockets .send method on the client as well as in the dataarrival method on the server.....<br />
<br />
In spite of the fact that I invoke the send method from within a routine that is called from within the _timer method on the client and continue to single step thru the code, the dataarrival method on the server does not get woken up until I have left the _timer method on the client, which leads me to believe that socket send messages get queued up and are not actually sent until the timer method has exited.....<br />
<br />
I am hoping this is easily explained and overcome since I'll need to re-design the thng if I cant get the socket send to actually &quot;fire&quot; while I am in the timer interrupt service routine....<br />

VB 6 timer interupt service routine preventing socket send method from firing right away...

A programming language is a formal constructed language designed to communicate instructions to a machine, particularly a computer. Thousands of different programming languages have been created, mainly in the computer field, and many more still are being created every year. The description of a programming language is usually split into the two components of syntax (form) and semantics (meaning). Some languages are defined by a specification document (for example, the C programming language is specified by an ISO Standard), while other languages (such as Perl) have a dominant implementation that is treated as a reference. Some languages have both, with the basic language defined by a standard and extensions taken from the dominant implementation being common.

Visual Basic is Microsoft’s event-driven programming language and integrated development environment (IDE) for its Component Object Model (COM) programming model. It is relatively easy to learn and use because of its graphical development features and BASIC heritage. It has been replaced with VB.NET, and is very similar to VBA (Visual Basic for Applications), the programming language for the Microsoft Office product line.
