Thanks to all of you. @ Jean-Michel Pichavant I am writing a small multiplayer game. Several clients are connected to the server. Games last, say, 20 seconds. You can think of the game as a small chat lasting 20 seconds. All the data received by the server is sent back to the clients.
@ Stephen Hansen Each player can send as many words as he wants. I think this is why I need the loop. Don't you think so ? @ Dave Angel s = conn, with conn,address=socket.accept() (see Socket Objects) Thanks again 2011/2/4 Jean-Michel Pichavant <jeanmic...@sequans.com> > Stephen Hansen wrote: > >> On 2/3/11 9:56 AM, Dwayne Blind wrote: >> >> >>> However I would like to set timeout on the socket rcv method, so that >>> the while loop stops exactly after 3 seconds.
