Dear René,

certain operating systems (e.g. Microsoft Windows Server 2003, Vista, etc.) do not accept an empty string or just a port number as valid values for localAdr. Use the values "0.0.0.0:0" or "0.0.0.0:<port number>" (e.g. "0.0.0.0:8010") instead.

This issue is documented at the end of Comm/Docu/TCP.

kind regards,

Marc

        The following test PROCEDURE gets "invalid local address", resunder Windows Vista, but execute successfully under XP. Before boring this mailing list, I already posed the question in Windows Vista forums, I did some "port and program exceptions", but nothing happens. Would someone give me a clue?
         
        PROCEDURE Listen*;
           VAR L: CommStreams.Listener; res: INTEGER;
        BEGIN
           CommStreams.NewListener ("CommTCP","8010", L, res);
           StdLog.String ("res ="); StdLog.Int (res); StdLog.Ln
        END Listen;
        
        Greetings: René Dorta.
