Since i learned to use mqtt, i wanted to use a client for vb6 to connect my older work with mobile features, but i never found a working client.
Now my 17 year old son was able to create an mqtt com server for me in c#. It was his first c# project, but it works. After installation the only thing one have to do is to link to this com server.
We made the same logic, objects, events and interface like mqtt in b4j; the only difference is, that currently only strings are used for payload and topic.

we have also vb6 apps in daily business. me thought it can be used for collecting data for charts. in combination with Node-RED dashboard.
seems it is a very simple protocol that can be used via a WinSock Component (except secure).
