A Question About TCPSocket

ruby-talk
1

Now I know what wrong I am.
The problem was not TCPSocket,but it was the File.open.
I used file = File.open(“filename”).
When I changed file = File.open(“filename”,“rb”), it is all OK.
Thanks

Hello,
I create an object of TCPSocket. Now I can use method “write” to
send a string.
What method that I can send a file using TCPSocket?

Well, in Ruby terms, a file is just a string – once it’s read in.

Lyle Johnson pointed out that you can do this:

ICON_FILE = ‘icon.jpg’

bytes = File.open(ICON_FILE, ‘rb’).read
File.open(‘icon.rb’, ‘w’) do |f|
f.puts “ICON_STRING = #{bytes.inspect}”
end

There’s no reason that you can’t end up treating the TCPSocket the
same way.
