Creates a new Socket for a newly created connection.
Namespace: System.Net.Sockets

'Declaration
Public Function Accept As Socket
public Socket Accept()
public:
Socket^ Accept()
member Accept : unit -> Socket
public function Accept() : Socket
Return Value
Type: System.Net.Sockets. . :: . .Socket
A Socket for a newly created connection.
Remarks
Accept synchronously extracts the first pending connection request from the connection request queue of the listening socket, and then creates and returns a new Socket. You cannot use this returned Socket to accept any additional connections from the connection queue. However, you can call the RemoteEndPoint method of the returned Socket to identify the remote host's network address and port number.
Note
Before calling the Accept method, you must first call the Listen method to listen for and queue incoming connection requests.
