Hi, I'm almost done a bomberman client for an AI hackathon, I just need to
get the TCP input to run in it's own thread.
I have the following code:
include("bomberman.jl")
try
GAMEIP = "0.0.0.0"
GAMEPORT = 40000
player = Player(GAMEIP, GAMEPORT)
print(typeof(player), "\n")
@async begin
recv_update(player)
end
while true
print(player.data)
end
catch err
print("connection ended with error $err\n")
end
Basically the recv_update(player) is running an infinite loop that updates
the player.data properly.
My understanding is that Julia passes all values by reference so player should
be getting updated outside of recv_update. Ignorantly I could ask, does @async
use memory on a different process so it doesn't get updated?
If you need to see the recv_update() code I can paste it or you can go to
https://github.com/collinglass/bombermanjl.

Collin
