I encounter a strange result in my program. I have a program like this :


answer "something" read from socket socket1 for 2 answer "something2"

I don't usually read without the message parameter. Since I don't usually use the blocking style, I might get this a little off.


With blocking you can use this:

   read from socket socket1 until empty

That means read until the buffer is empty; it does not wait until the socket is closed.

With non-blocking you can use this:

   read from socket socket1 until empty with message "gotData"

or

   read from socket socket1 with message "gotData"

The above blocking method can be used like this:

on mouseUp
  constant sid = "127.0.0.1:13"
  put empty into field "Log"
  open socket sid
  repeat 10000
    read from socket sid until empty
    put "result: " & the result & lf after field "Log"
    put "data: " & it & lf after field "Log"
    if it is not empty then exit repeat
  end repeat
  close socket sid
end mouseUp

Since you want to read two bytes, modify that to accumulate bytes until you get two or you timeout.

Or your might want to switch to "with message".
