ACE中的流包裝提供面向連接的通信。流數據傳輸包裝類包括ACE_SOCK_Stream和ACE_LSOCK_Stream，它們分別包裝TCP/IP和UNIX域socket協議數據傳輸功能。連接建立類包括針對TCP/IP的ACE_SOCK_Connector和ACE_SOCK_Acceptor，以及針對UNIX域socket的ACE_LSOCK_Connector和ACE_LSOCK_Acceptor。
      Acceptor類用于被動地接受連接（使用BSD accept()調用），而Connector類用于主動地建立連接（使用BSD connect()調用）。
      下面的例子演示接收器和連接器是怎樣用于建立連接的。該連接隨后將用于使用流數據傳輸類來傳輸數據。

運行結果：
cmd里到exe目錄下，先啟動服務端server.exe 192.168.1.160
如圖1：

正在輪詢等待。

再到client服務端，同樣的方法
運行命令行參數格式 client.exe 192.168.1.160 192
 解析：ACE_DEBUG((LM_DEBUG,"Usage %s <hostname> <port_number>\n", argv[0]));
         命令行參數為 <hostname><port> = <192.168.1.160><192>
         端口是由圖1的第二行顯示，不是自己設定的。
如圖2：
