ICS is great component!!! Starting new project and go deep to C++.

ICS Internet Component Suite (Aka FPIETTE's Components) is best alternative i found and i must learn it more. François PIETTE who ICS write and not want anything for it is in one word genius :) Next 3 days i don't have time for programming :(

New project, new experiences. After fights with WinSocket components i stay with TCP Server and test first session for visitors of PtokaX-CZECHPOINT hub.
My pleasure not have long time, because TCPServer component in trial version is limited to 10 connections, and i am very pissed off !!! <PPK> “Aaaa bude sranda ;)“
Next 4 days i looking for good alternative.

New try, now with implemented part of Direct Connect Protocol. First sucessfull try of login. Always is monouser server :)

First tries on clientserver app. I understand first things how this working.
Because i don't have any TCP knowledge, i use BCPP components and tryingto send data.
My miniclient first time connect to Direct Connect hub and send/receive first data ;)

I instaled Trial version of Borland C++ Builder v6.0 I don't have any experiences with it and few next days i learning how it works.

After my experienses with Neo-Modus Direct Connect Hub and with another available hubs for Windows i get opinion that is better to write new Hub working without problems with functions missing in another hubs. I start looking on internet and getting first informations on Direct Connect Protocol and network communication.
