Multiple connections in Managed C++ with TcpListener

[Rob Tand]

Hi,
I have a server application which will allow
interfacing to a database and support multiple clients
over a telnet connection. Right now I have an infinite
loop that will accept a single client connection and
continue to listen for more (over writing the first).
For obvious reasons, the application can not do anything
else while it is in this loop. Added to this is the fact
that the application runs at 99% CPU resources. What
would be a better way to do this? Create a thread to run
the listener while the rest of the application deals with
client input? Or is there a DoEvents function in Managed
C++ that I could make use of?

Thanks,
Rob

Use async Socket with BeginAccept/Begin* etc. It will use ThreadPool
automatically.

Thank you, I was able to get multiple clients to connect
with the async Socket.
