Crashes when encapsulating CC++'s TCP socket

[Anonymous]

I am having problems with the TCPSocket and tcpstream classes. It seems that I cannot create and initialize them within another class. I am starting out with the demo tcp.cpp (which itself works fine for me), and have tried in several different ways to encapsulate that code in a class of my own. Every time I do it the compiled program crashes on me when I connect to it with a test client. Here is exactly what I am doing:

#include <socket.h>
#include <IOSTREAM.h>

class TestClass
{
public:
    TestClass();
//    ~TestClass();
    tcpstream m_Stream;
    TCPSocket m_Socket;
    void Test();
};

TestClass::TestClass():
    m_Socket(InetAddress(), 5555)
{

}

void TestClass::Test()
{
    int i;
    try
    {
        while(m_Socket.isPendingConnection())
        {
            m_Stream.open(m_Socket);
//          m_Stream.unsetf(ios::binary);
            m_Stream << "5welcome to " << "" << endl;
            if(m_Stream.isPending(SOCKET_PENDING_INPUT, 2000))
            {
                m_Stream >> i;
                m_Stream << "user entered " << i << endl;
            }
            m_Stream << "exiting now" << endl;
            m_Stream.close();
        }
    }
    catch(Socket *socket)
    {
        tpport_t port;
        InetAddress saddr = (InetAddress)socket->getPeer(&port);
        cerr << "socket error " << saddr << ":" << port << endl;
        cout << "error number " << socket->getErrorNumber() << endl;       
        if(socket->getErrorNumber() == SOCKET_RESOURCE_FAILURE)
        {
            cerr << "bind failed; no resources" << endl;
            exit(-1);
        }
        if(socket->getErrorNumber() == SOCKET_BINDING_FAILED)
        {
            cerr << "bind failed; port busy" << endl;
            exit(-1);
        }
    }
    cout << "timeout after 30 seconds inactivity, exiting" << endl;
}

int main()
{
    TestClass test;
    test.Test();

    return 0;
}

Among the things I have already tried is putting all the code that currently is in TestClass::Test() in TestClass' constructor, but that crashed on connect as well. Essentially the problem always comes up when I create and use the CC++ objects as members of my own classes, while the same code works great when put directly in main() (which is unacceptable for my purposes).
I would _really_ appreciate a little guidance with this. Encapsulation of the TCP socket and streaming classes must have been done before.
Thanks in advance for any help.

I almost always use the socket family classes as objects on heap, i.e.
TCPStream *mystream =
new TCPStream("localhost",6000)

I have tried using member heap objects already, it does not improve the situation. =(

Use TCPStream instead of tcpstream.

And make a simpler example program to see where it fails.

TCPSocket serv("localhost",8100);
while (1) {
  TCPStream *s = new TCPStream(*serv);
  puts("accepted one");
  (*s) << "Hello world";
}
