Thanks william, you can read some of my notes in network_main.jal for adding a new network adapter, and how it works. I do however suggest you go with one of microchip's WIFI devices. > Is there a website or other docs that gives an overview and the > various tradeoffs you may have made with your networking stack? I don't have experience with other people's micro-controller networking code, so I don't know what tradeoffs I have done compared to them. I tried to make it as memory efficient as possible. Mainly, network variables can move within the main array, depending on a pointer. Without this, I would need duplicate variables. > It might be worth considering moving SLIP to the networking directory? I guess it is ok where it is.

This should not happen if the UDP application is written correctly, but I need to test anyways. I definitely need to make some real world samples as you suggested in the other topic. There are so many useful applications that could be written. Matt. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "jallib" group.
