writeline

Create a TCP/IP server that listens for connections at localhost and port 4000.

server = tcpserver("localhost",4000)

server = 
  TCPServer with properties:

        ServerAddress: "127.0.0.1"
           ServerPort: 4000
            Connected: 0
        ClientAddress: ""
           ClientPort: []
    NumBytesAvailable: 0

Create a TCP/IP client to connect to your server object using tcpclient. You must specify the same IP address and port number you use to create server.

client = tcpclient("localhost",4000)

client = 
  tcpclient with properties:

              Address: 'localhost'
                 Port: 4000
    NumBytesAvailable: 0

Check the default ASCII terminator for the server.

server.Terminator

ans = 
"LF"

Set the terminators for both the server and client to "CR". The TCP/IP server and its connected client must have the same terminator.

configureTerminator(server,"CR")
configureTerminator(client,"CR")

Write a string of ASCII data from the server to the client by writing it to the server object. The writeline function automatically appends the terminator to the data.

writeline(server,"hello")

Write another string of ASCII data with the terminator automatically appended.

writeline(server,"world")

Since the client is connected to the server, the data you write is available in the client. Read a string of ASCII data from the client object. The readline function returns data until it reaches a terminator.

readline(client)

ans = 
"hello"

Read a string of ASCII data again to return the second string.

readline(client)

ans = 
"world"
