XML over TCPHi all,
I have an VB.NET application the is sending XML files over TCP. I would like to know if there is a standard syntax for signaling the "end-of-file" for XML. I know I could concatinate whatever, but am looking for a standard, if it exists. Thanks in advance Goran Djuranovic "Goran Djuranovic" <goran.djuranovic@newsgroups.nospam> wrote in End of file is determined by your file schema.news:uMpI69MCHHA.144@TK2MSFTNGP02.phx.gbl: > I have an VB.NET application the is sending XML files over TCP.

You can use a DTD to validate if the file was transferred succesfully. Hi,
To use DTD I first have to an XML file (on disc or in-memory), right? But cannot get the file if I don't known where the file ends. For example, if I am getting the following stream of data: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><Root><Name>Apple</Name></Root><?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><Root><Name>Orange</Name></Root> I need to be able to read: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><Root><Name>Apple</Name></Root> out of that stream and convert it to an XML file (in order to use DTD or schema validation), and continue with the rest of the stream. I CAN do this by sending "<EOF>" right after both </Root> tags, but I was wondering if there is an XML standard that I can use instead of "<EOF>".

You can do the same with the <EOF> for your communication. Regards Holger "Goran Djuranovic" <goran.djuranovic@newsgroups.nospam> wrote in Do you know the schema - or is the file format unknown?
