wxWidgets: Client connects to the server, but the server does not recognize

Question

I'm creating (at the time, to learn how) two applications console: a server and a client.

The client can connect to the server. If the server is not available, the application terminates with error. The server waits make a connection, on line socketServer->Accept(1);. When the client connects, the code continues.. The problem is that the "if" following (if (socketServer->IsConnected()) {) evaluates to false.

Answer 1

After hours studying and trying, I solved the problem.

wxPrintf("Waiting for connection...\n");
wxSocketBase socketTest;
socketServer->AcceptWith(socketTest, true);
if (socketTest.IsConnected()) {
    wxPrintf("Success\n");
} else {
    wxPrintf("Not connected\n");
}

In the manual is written a detail that had not understood:

Accepts an incoming connection request, and creates a new wxSocketBase object which represents the server-side of the connection.
