structnoobness or wrong netcode interpretation?

Hey Guys, thanks for checking by...

I am working on this for probably 3 days now and I just cant get this to work. All I am actually trying is putting the code from the Netcode Simple Connection Server Tutorial into classes/structs...however my server doesnt broadcast any packets to the clients, and whenever a client connects to the server he gets kicked after about 10 seconds.

I am actually rather disappointed of myself for being stuck on this T_T

I have uploaded the small source as attachment.

Thanks in advance for your help blushing

greets chris

Ah, furthermore I ve forgot to mention that my server has stopped kicking the clients, but whenever I send a packet he crashes now. :/

Hello,

I dont know too much about EE yet.
But I'm studying your problem and isnt this cast wrong?

Code:

if(Client* client = dynamic_cast<SVClient*>(&mServer->clients.lockedData(i)))

I think it should be:

Code:

if(SVClient *client=CAST(SVClient, &mServer->clients.lockedData(i)))

Maybe thats why it is freezing...

Cya,

RW

Thanks for your help, but the server still crashes as he receives a packet.

I think I have found! hehe

Code:

for(int i = 0; i <= Elms(mServer->clients); i--)

{

    if(Client* client = dynamic_cast<SVClient*>(&mServer->clients.lockedData(i)))

    {

        if(this != client)

        {

            connection.data.pos(0);

            client->connection.dataFull(connection.data, connection.data.size());

        }

    }

    mServer->clients.unlock(); // THIS ONE

}

This line:

Code:

    mServer->clients.unlock(); // THIS ONE

Should be outside the FOR...

Code:

    }

}

mServer->clients.unlock(); // THIS ONE

You are unlocking the clients, before the FOR finishes.

Try that.

Thanks a lot for your help grin

Damn...my own fault, I didnt want to use the macro and while
splitting the REPA I forgot the new { I opened.
