XMLSocket problem for GPS gateway in VB

Question

I am a student at the University of Staffordshire in the
United Kingdom.
For my final year project I am creating a walking tour of the
university using GPS and Flash on a Smart phone running Windows
mobile 5 with flash lite 2.1.
Now I created a application in VB.net witch receives the GPS
information (it checks all com ports and baud rates) and sends this
to flash via a socket.
All the components work on the desktop. The GPS can even
write away to a txt file or XML with no problem on the device.
I have the following problem.
The connection between flash and visual basic.net on the
mobile device won’t let me send any information. Flash will
return that a connection is made but will not receive any
information. On the desktop this worked fine and I could also see
the client connect to the VB application. How ever this is also not
the case on the Mobile device.
I’m using the following to send the data to the
connected user in the working desktop version:
quote:
Dim myMsg As Byte() =
System.Text.Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(msg)
myStream = myClient.Client.GetStream()
myStream.Write(myMsg, 0, myMsg.Length)
myStream.WriteByte(0)
myStream.Flush()
The following code is the listener function with handles new
connections:
quote:
Dim client As TcpClient = serverHnd.AcceptTcpClient()
Dim obj As New ClientObj(client)
clients.Add(obj.Key, obj)
I am receiving the information in flash with the following
(simple testing code)
quote:
myXML.onXML = handleXML;
function handleXML(xmlObject) {
msgbox1.text += xmlObject+"\n";
I hope someone can help me out of this problem because I have
very little programming know how in visual basic but as far as I
can see the code looks fine (and works).
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you for you time
