Well you are not showing your code, so all we can do is guess and show code that works. I tend to go in phases with sockets...I get all into it, then it all fades out of my active memory, and it gets hazy. Anyways, the last time I dove in to Tk and sockets, I came up with this as a working example with fork. This is the set of snippets I refer to as a basic starting point for forking Tk sockets with Select. So run them, and see how to make your scripts work the same. They are sort of a "minimal proof of concept".
#######the server############################## #!/usr/bin/perl -w use strict; use IO::Select; use IO::Socket; $| = 1; # create the socket my $host = shift || 'localhost'; my $port = 12345; my $socket = IO::Socket::INET->new( LocalPort => $port, LocalAddr => $host, Listen => 5, Proto => 'tcp', Reuse => 1, ); defined $socket or die "ERROR: Can't create socket: $!\n"; print STDERR "Socket open ... listening for incoming calls ..\n"; my $select = IO::Select->new($socket); my %socks; while (1) { foreach my $fh ($select->can_read) { if ($fh == $socket) { # new connection my $new = $socket->accept; $select->add($new); $socks{$new}{FH} = $new; print STDERR "Received new connection ($new) ..\n"; } else { my $data = <$fh>; if (defined $data) { $data =~ tr/\r\n//d; foreach my $handle (keys %socks) { print {$socks{$handle}{FH}} "$handle $data\n"; } } else { print "BYE $fh.\n"; $select->remove($fh); delete $socks{$fh}; $fh->close; } } } }

########the client###################### <code> #!/usr/bin/perl use warnings; use strict; use Tk; use IO::Select; use IO::Socket; require Tk::ROText; # create the socket my $host = shift || 'localhost'; my $port = 12345; my $socket = IO::Socket::INET->new( PeerAddr => $host, PeerPort => $port, Proto => 'tcp', ); defined $socket or die "ERROR: Can't connect to port $port on $host: $ +!\n"; print STDERR "Connected to server ...\n"; my $mw = new MainWindow; my $log = $mw->Scrolled(qw/ROText -scrollbars ose/)->pack; my $txt = $mw->Entry()->pack(qw/-fill x -pady 5/); $mw ->bind('<Any-Enter>' => sub { $txt->Tk::focus }); $txt->bind('<Return>' => [\&broadcast, $socket]); $mw ->fileevent($socket, readable => sub { my $line = <$socket>; unless (defined $line) { $mw->fileevent($socket => readable => ''); return; } $log->insert(end => $line); }); MainLoop; sub broadcast { my ($ent, $sock) = @_; my $text = $ent->get; $ent->delete(qw/0 end/); print $sock $text, "\n"; }

Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>

to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
