Writing to socket using .NET SDK

Hi!

I'm keeping a socket connection open using Receiver attach() method to send events to my Splunk Server. But I'm not able to see any events coming until close the socket.

Now I'm using a very ugly solution that is opening and closing the socket everytime.

Searching about this behavior I found this related question

The solution is to use TCPInput attach() method instead of Receiver, but it doesn't exist in .NET SDK!

How can I do that?!
