how to send the data from the server to the client continuously, every 1000 ms under TCP/IP , using QTcpsocket and QTcpserver

[Alex42]

unfortunately i have the same probleme

  server = new QTcpServer(this);
  connect(server, &QTcpServer::newConnection,this, &Calibration::newConnections, Qt::QueuedConnection);

  timer = new QTimer(this);
  connect(timer, SIGNAL (timeout()), this, SLOT(keepAliv()));
  timer->start(1000);

  if (!server ->listen(QHostAddress::Any,9000))
  {
      qDebug () << "Server could not start !";
  }
  else
  {
      qDebug () << "Server started" ;
  }

QList<QTcpSocket *>mClients ;

  }

  void Calibration::newConnections ()
  {

      QTcpSocket *socket = server->nextPendingConnection();

          // add socket to client list (QList<QTcpSocket *> mClients (class member)
  QList<QTcpSocket *>mClients ;
          mClients << socket;

          // remove socket from list on disconnection
          connect(socket, &QTcpSocket::disconnected, this, [this, socket]() {
           ;
          }, Qt::QueuedConnection);

          QTextStream T(socket);
          T <<"&& \r\n"<<"2608"<<(ui->lineEdit_17->text())<<"\r\n"<<"2609"<<(ui->lineEdit_17->text())<<"\r\n" <<"2610"<<( ui->lineEdit_17->text())<< "\r\n!!" ;
          socket->flush();

  }

  void Calibration::keepAlive()
  {
       QList<QTcpSocket *>mClients ;
      for(const auto socket : mClients)
      {
          QTextStream T(socket);
          T <<"KeepAlive\r\n!!" ;
          socket->flush();
      }
  }

No, the problem is different: your connect statement is wrong! You try to connect to slot keepAliv() which not exists, it is keepAlive().
To avoid this kind of error, please use new connect syntax:

// WRONG
connect(timer, SIGNAL (timeout()), this, SLOT(keepAliv()));

// CORRECT
connect(timer, SIGNAL (timeout()), this, SLOT(keepAlive()));

// EVEN MORE BETTER
connect(timer, &QTimer::timeout, this, &Calibration::keepAlive);

And, as I write in my previous post. I used Qt::QueuedConnection to avoid thread issues and not have to add locker/mutex around list access.

[Alex42]

it's the same problem, but I think the problem come from the dynamic array QList<QTcpSocket *> mClients
erreur "use of undeclared identifier mClients

void Calibration::newConnections ()
      {

          QTcpSocket *socket = server->nextPendingConnection();

              // add socket to client list (QList<QTcpSocket *> mClients (class member)
   
              mClients << socket;

              // remove socket from list on disconnection
              connect(socket, &QTcpSocket::disconnected, this, [this, socket]() {
                         mClients.removeAll(socket);
                     }, Qt::QueuedConnection);

              QTextStream T(socket);
              T <<"&& \r\n"<<"2608"<<(ui->lineEdit_17->text())<<"\r\n"<<"2609"<<(ui->lineEdit_17->text())<<"\r\n" <<"2610"<<( ui->lineEdit_17->text())<< "\r\n!!" ;
              socket->flush();


      }

      void Calibration::keepAlive()
      {
      
          for(const auto socket : mClients)
          {
              QTextStream T(socket);
              T <<"KeepAlive\r\n!!" ;
              socket->flush();
          }
      }

As written in my second post, you have to declare mClients as class member of Calibration.
I suppose that Calibration is based on QObject:

class Calibration : public QObject
{
    Q_OBJECT

public:
    explicit Calibration(QObject * parent = 0):
....
private:
    QList<QTcpSocket*> mClients;
};

OK resolved , but another probleme in the slot keepAlive() " no matching constuctor forinitilisation of "QTextStream"

void Calibration::keepAlive()
      {

          for(const auto socket : mClients)
          {
              QTextStream T(socket);
              T <<"KeepAlive\r\n!!" ;
              socket->flush();
          }
      }

Yes, my fault, I correct my previous post: mClients have to be declared as QList<QTcpSocket*> not QList<QObjet*>

[Alex42]

the problem is resolved, You are The Best, Thank You Very Much for Your Help.

the problem is resolved,

After rereading my code, I found a last little error.
There is a memory leak in my code, after socket is removed from mClientList it also have to deleted:

// remove socket from list on disconnection and free memory
connect(socket, &QTcpSocket::disconnected, this, [this, socket]() {
         mClients.removeAll(socket);
         socket->delateLater();
     }, Qt::QueuedConnection);

socket->delateLater();

deleteLater(), I added it and everything works wonderfully, thank you again.
