RE: [flexcoders] Socket woes - something simple I'm sure

[Ted Patrick]

There is no default delimiter in flash.net.Socket. XMLSocket uses a null byte delimiter to detect message completions to fire the ‘data’ and ‘xml’ events. If you are using an XMLSocket Server supporting null bytes. Try adding a null byte before flushing the flash.net.Socket.   That should work seamlessly.   Also on the receiving side, you will need to read bytesAvailable into a buffer to detect the null byte to denote a message received.   Ted J From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of e_baggg Sent: Thursday, October 19, 2006 8:44 AM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: [flexcoders] Socket woes - something simple I'm sure   Hello. I have a XMLSocket class that I am able to send/receive data to no problem. I switched my implementation to use the flash.net.Socket class and now I cannot receive data back. I updated my sendMessage() to the following...this request should trigger a response from the server but it doesn't...most likely b/c my request is incorrect. What does the XMLSocket do for me that I am not doing here? I thought maybe adding the "\n" to the String would work but it did not. The sendMessage() method is called in my connectHandler so I know the socket is connected. There are no errors in my IO and security handlers. import flash.net.Socket; public class MySocket extends Socket { ... public function sendMessage(xml : XML) : void { try { var ss : String = xml.toXMLString(); //ss = <credentials user="me" password="pass"/> this.writeUTF(ss); this.flush(); trace("Send-->:" + ss); } catch (error : IOError){ trace("Error: " + error.message); } } __._,_.___ -- Flexcoders Mailing List FAQ: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/flexcoders/files/flexcodersFAQ.txt Search Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com SPONSORED LINKS Software development tool Software development Software development services Home design software Software development company Your email settings: Individual Email|Traditional Change settings via the Web (Yahoo!
