RCP Client Blocking Send/Receive

Question

What is are block sends and receive on a TCP client?  I believe the recieve will block or wait until it receives something.

How would the send work?  It can't really block until you send something, or is a send not really a blocking call?

Any examples?

Thanks

Answer 1

Do you mean RCP or RPC ?

Answer 2

If I have TCP client, isn't there a blocking send a recieve method to send data to the server?

Answer 3

Yes you need to first get the NetworkStream from the TcpClient via GetStream(). Then the methods Read and Write are the blocking calls. The Begin/End Versions are asynchronous.
