PowerTCP SSL Sockets for .NET 1.0.3 (ID #19992)

Dart Communications

PowerTCP SSL Sockets for .NET enhances socket communications in the Microsoft .NET Framework by providing stream-oriented SSL encryption and authentication that can be plugged into any stream-based .NET technology, whether it is network, file, or buffer-based. In order to make .NET security easier to use, a simple streaming object is included, making encryption possible with only a few lines of code, even powerful encryption schemes such as AES. Certificate management support is provided through direct access to the Microsoft Certificate Stores. Along with security is an easy-to-use TCP component that provides asynchronous event notification, processing of user-interface events during blocking operations, and the ability to conduct on-the-fly data parsing. The Server component is fully multithreaded, allowing for every incoming connection to receive a separate thread. The UDP component enables the easy construction of UDP-based applications with asynchronous event handling and socket options available through specialized properties. The DNS component is designed to not only resolve domain addresses, but handle MX-record look up and the ability to specify a user-defined DNS server. The Ping component not only sends echoes using ICMP, but also provides the option of UDP- and TCP-based connection testing, circumventing well-known ICMP limitations. The Trace component allows for asynchronous Trace Route capability, returning comprehensive packet hop information in seconds. Debugging has been extended beyond run-time testing to a design-time Editor in every component that lets you test your connection without compiling. Properties set in the Editor are recorded directly in your code, and a real-time feedback window gives you detailed information about the results, providing unprecedented debugging capability. Integrated Help 2.0 documentation includes more than three dozen tutorials and a comprehensive reference guide with full support for dynamic Help.
