[REBOL] ** Script Error: Cannot use copy on this type port
From: rchristiansen::pop::isdfa::sei-it::com at: 18-Dec-2000 18:28
I'm teaching myself how to write to and read from ports in REBOL.
While trying to copy the data from a port, I get the following error:
** Script Error: Cannot use copy on this type port
Can anyone tell me why I cannot use 'copy? I get this error when I
use the tcp protocol and the open/lines or open/string refinement. I
do not get this error when I use the udp protocol.
Here is an example of client and server scripts that do work (if I
change the first line of each script to open/lines tcp:* or to
open/string tcp:* I get the error):
REBOL []
client: open udp://localhost:8009
forever [
message: input
insert client message
wait client
print copy client
]
REBOL []
server: open udp://:8009
forever [
wait server
receipt: copy []
receipt: copy server
print receipt
insert server "ACK_RESPONSE"
]
