First, check to ensure the proper length of the data. Then write code
like the following:
MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream(received);
BinaryReader br = new BinaryReader(ms);
myMsg.a = br.ReadInt32();
myMsg.b = br.ReadInt32();
myMsg.c = br.ReadInt32();
What I typically do is define a struct with FromArray() and ToArray()
methods that contain code like the above. Then you can do the
following:
aMsg myMsg = new aMsg();
aMsg.FromArray(received);
