if I specify a buffer that is actually not big enough to hold a packet,
then what will happen?
e.g.
var
myBuffer: array[0..50] of char;
receivedSize: longint;
receivedSize := MywSock.receive(myBuffer);
if the socket wants to give me 100 bytes but I only have 50.. what will
happen?

I got it. so this is what I'll do:

B> (malloc ptrAltogether 10240 bytes; Let sizeRemain = 10240;sizeDone=0)

A> "010010101010101..."
B> (First packet is ready:
var ptrTemp: array[0..MAX_PACK] of char;
Zero(ptrTemp);
if(sizeThisPack = Receive(ptrTemp) > 0)

Hi, this is David.
I asked about a method to recognize the "splitted packets" and to join
them upon arrival of the last one. So far my protocol works fine, and
all the data is assembled in an orderly manner. For large texts or
binary data, the clients knows how to handle it as follows:
The "Red
gain, meaning if you

t. Winsock does not respect packet boundaries, but (see

Hi! I'm new to ICS!
I am designing a simple protocol that will be mainly used locally (as a
database server backend)..so I'm guessing I could send up to 2GB of
stuff without hassle (BLOBs, for example). Right now I'm just
experimenting with the facility for two parties to effectively "talk" to
eac
