Nios2----->PC(windows)

Altera_Forum · ‎09-06-2005

I have to connect a Nios2 with a PC on which there's WINXP OS

I cannot use any OS for Nios2 and so I'll use the RAW Api of LWIP.

The question is....

Can I use a telnet client to send and recieve strings?

Do I have to use LWIP also on my PC? or can I use windows sockets?

Thank you all

You can use ordinary windows sockets

Hi, i am a c/c++ programmer, sorry but i don't know nothing about fpga programming but i have to estabilish a connection whith an fpga which does the server side.

I have a great problem: standard socket blocking recv functions in c return 0 only if the connection is closed by the remote side.

I've noticed that often the fpga makes my recv function returns with 0 value even if non one forces the disconnection.

Does someone could exlpain it?

Have i to use different functions?

Thanks to all (even for the patience)!!
