Brian and Wilfried gave the solutions for binary transfers. The thing to remind is that the receiver has to know what data he has to receive: kind and length. For fragmentation, has a look at the document 'tcp/udp primer' available from the support page at my website.
Personnally, I always try to have a line oriented protocol, sending data in ascii instead of binary. This will greatly help interoperability between platforms and languages as data has not always the same binary representation in all languages and platforms. Most well known TCP/IP protocol use line oriented ascii protocols, even for HTTP and FTP where there is also binary data. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.overbyte.be ----- Original Message ----- From: "Igor Pokorny" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <twsocket@elists.org> Sent: Monday, August 15, 2005 12:50 AM Subject: [twsocket] Twsocketserver > Hi guys, > > I do have a realtime application communicates to one side by USB and to > the other acts as http server and/or TCPserver.
