[yomi]

Even acted as a starter's client on windows is not support now?
I failed to use starter on windows.

Hi,

Glacier Starter is supported on Windows as of Ice 1.3.0.

If you are having trouble, you need to provide as much information as possible about the problem, such as your configuration settings, the command line parameters, and the error messages.

Take care,

Hi, here is my client's code.
It runs correctly in Linux(On the same machine with server). But throw Exception on windows when excute to "GameSessionPrx base = GameSessionPrx::checkedCast(session);"

here is the output information

[ Network: tcp connection established
local address = 172.16.65.182:4378
remote address = 172.16.65.192:3700 ]

Does the Glacier/session demo work correctly for you on Windows? If so, I suggest you compare your configuration settings against those from the demo to see if there are any significant differences that might explain the failure.

If the Glacier/session demo does not work correctly, please provide the console output from the client, starter and server.

Thanks,

I change

seems better. but still error.
I am wondered why there are 3 connections?
one is connection with starter.
the other is connection with router.
what is the third one?

Ok, I believe I know what's going wrong now. From the error message in your post ("got EOF from ..."), it's clear that you are running GlacierStarter on Linux. The demo's configuration file is written assuming that the client, server and GlacierStarter are all running on the same host. If you want to run GlacierStarter and the server on a different host from the client, then you must make sure that all your endpoints are using a host address that is accessible to the client.

The easiest way to do this without modifying the configuration file on Linux is to run the server and GlacierStarter with the option

--Ice.Default.Host=172.16.65.192

The only property you need to change in the client's configuration file is Glacier.Starter.Endpoints.

Let us know if you're still having trouble.

Take care,
