This code does not work for me Win 7 64, MQL4 b6++!

Both the server (fails to bind to a port) and the client (cannot connect) fails!

Wonderful product!

i haven't managed to run any forms of communication on x64 system - neither pipe connection through kernel32.dll or tcp/ip connection. Does anyone know any way to connect 2 terminal's EAs on x64 system (that would work both on x86 and x64) ?

Hi, try to compile the scripts on Metaeditor 5.00 buid 1154, that cames with MetaTrader 4.00 build 840, and not works.

It gives me an error at line 284 to 289 on WinSock.mqh:

Hi, did you get that resolved? I'm getting the same compile errors on mt4.

Hi,

For MT4 Build 600 onward, I've tried https://www.mql5.com/en/forum/160115/page3 and it is working perfectly for me.

Has the winsock issue ever been fixed? just by accessing this WinSock.mqh I my errors went from 22 to 67 and all of the errors are reported as being inside the mqh file.
