Hello,

i want to read data directly from a TCPIP-port to get
data into IDL..

are there any better possibilities than spawning an
c-programm which feeds the data into idl?

wasn't there something like named pipes?
Or can I read from a /dev/file directly?

pro get_data

get_lun,unit

spawn,'netcat -l -h otherhost -p dataport ',unit=unit

readu,unit,data

free_lun,unit

print, data

end

any hint needed...

Hendrik
