Network / Multiple clients

« on: August 03, 2013, 08:32:31 pm »

I have found a tutorial on how to do multiple clients with SFML, but even i can see that the developer was lost in their own code.

I have crossed SFML documentation stating how to connect to multiple clients, but i strongly believe that it was for a earlier version of SFML. So how can we implement several clients to a server?

Network / connecting externally

« on: August 03, 2013, 01:13:47 am »

I have been at this for hours now -.- So annoyed..

I have my server set to listen on port 2000 like sooo..

sf::TcpListener listener;
listener.listen(2000);
listener.accept(socket);
 

Then i have my client set to connect to the server like so...

socket.connect("142.197.200.18", 2000);
 

Why doesn't this work? I need to do this so that people not on my network could connect.. Doing this locally is unacceptable.

Entire Code:

#include<SFML/Graphics.hpp>
#include<SFML/Network.hpp>
#include<iostream>
#include<stdlib.h>
#include<ctime>
 
int main()
{
    sf::IpAddress ip = "142.197.200.18";
        std::cout << ip;
    sf::TcpSocket socket;
    char connectionType;
    std::string text = "";
    char buffer[2000], mode = 'r';
    std::size_t received;
 
    std::cout << "Enter (s) for Server, Enter (c) for Client: ";
    std::cin >> connectionType;
 
    if(connectionType == 's')
    {
        sf::TcpListener listener;
        listener.listen(2000);
        listener.accept(socket);
        text += "Server";
        mode = 's';
    }
    else if(connectionType == 'c')
    {
        socket.connect(ip, 2000);
        text += "Client";
    }
 
    socket.send(text.c_str(), text.length() + 1);
    socket.receive(buffer, sizeof(buffer), received);
 
    std::cout << buffer << std::endl;
     
    bool done = false;
 
    while(!done)
    {
        if(mode == 's')
        {
            std::getline(std::cin, text);
            socket.send(text.c_str(), text.length() + 1);
            mode = 'r';
        }
        else if(mode == 'r')
        {
            socket.receive(buffer, sizeof(buffer), received);
            if(received > 0)
            {
                std::cout << "Received: " << buffer << std::endl;
                mode = 's';
            }
        }
    }
    return 0;
}

Audio / SFML_LIVE_AUDIO

« on: June 03, 2013, 10:50:52 pm »

I have been trying this for days. I need to capture the live stream of the audio being recorded. Could someone point me in the correct direction for this? Please, hurry as i am VERY obsessive over programming.
