when reading data from the network, i should just read more bytes in then what my clients are sending.

For the longest time, i thought if i did that i would read into the next set of packets.

in theory i could let the packets que up 2k in bytes and if each packet sent was 10 bytes, i could read in ...

I havent tried any of this code, but do you get any kind of screen capture delays? what i mean is, sometime i have had to take 2 screenshot before the clip board would take the image. and the image that is in there is the first image and not the second.

a friend was over and we talked about this ...

I solved this. It was the declare statement that was the culprit. I took out the public part and it seems to work not with no fuss. And I am using proceduredll not cdll.

procedurecdll() and proceduredll() are not working.

ex.
procedurecdll savesnapshot(name.s)
endprocedure


vb declare is as follows. declare sub also.
Public Declare Function savesnapshot Lib "c:\temp\netdll.dll" (ByVal name As String)

when i use savesnapshot text1.text i get a bad calling ...

you have more to worry about then people using getdc.. just a simple print screen will do the trick. but back to your original question.. getdc isnt a windows message that can be detected. the only thing i could think of would be to look at what processes are running and maybe kill those off that ...

what happends to packet when they are received but not delt with..

what i mean is.. lets say i start up the server.. the client(s) then sends some packets we will say they are 32 bytes each...and 10 packets total.. do these packets get buffered or stacked untill i do something with them?

what ...

After I did it, I realized this and didnt feal like updating lol.. but yes that is actually.

OpenConsole()

;PathBuffer.s = "" ; uncomment this and the full path works ???
PathBuffer = AllocateMemory(0,255,0) ;this does not work for some ???reason
FileName$ = "client.db"

OpenLibrary(0,"kernel32.dll")

result.w = CallFunction(0,"GetFullPathNameA", FileName$,255,@PathBuffer,NULL)

PrintN ...

Duh! figured it out..

DataBuffer = AllocateMemory(1,2000,0)

result = ReceiveNetworkData(CID,DataBuffer,1000)
PrintN(PeekS(databuffer,result))

databuffer hold address of memory,, just needed to feed the address to both of the other functions.. not pointers or address of address lol.

I have used SendNetworkStirng command to send a 31 byte long string, something like a$ = "skfjlskdf kj flsk jdf "+str(TotalClients)+" dfkdjf" just and example. anyway when the client reads this in with receivenetworkdata i get the proper about of bytes read in but when i use peeks on the databuffer ...

Right now i am testing server/client programming, and my current model uses threads to monitor network activity per client. what would be the best solution to handle network traffic?

Lets say there are many users logged into the server. Now if every user sent data to the server at one time do the ...

The first little test i did, and find i cant use an unsigned byte. then i look around for the .ub thing and then do a seach for more info.. not surprised to see this mentioned. Why do i have to use a 2 byte var. just to do the same job as 1 byte minus the neg sign (no pun intended). I can only guess ...
