Network / Not receiving data from packet

« on: November 30, 2011, 07:40:49 pm »

Is it possible to write about 300 integers into a packet and send it over the network and unpack it successfully, using UDP and SFML 1.3? Is there a limit on the size of a packet in this version? If I try to send all the data in one packet it fails at extracting the data when the packet is received. If I write about 1/6th of the data to a packet it successfully extracts the data. I would like to send at least the 300 integer values in one packet.

Code: [Select]


class Network_Tetris_Packet
{
      public:
          sf::Int32 filled_c[ROWS][COLS];
}

sf::Packet& operator << (sf::Packet &packet, const Network_Tetris_Packet &tet_packet)
{
    for(int i = 0; i < ROWS; i++)
    {
        for(int j = 0; j < COLS; j++)
        {
            if(packet << tet_packet.filled_c[i][j])
                 // Insertion into packet successfull
            else
                // Insertion into packet not successfull
        }
    }
    return packet;
}

sf::Packet& operator >> (sf::Packet &packet, Network_Tetris_Packet &tet_packet)
{
    for(int i = 0; i < ROWS; i++)
    {
        for(int j = 0; j < COLS; j++)
        {
            if(packet >> tet_packet.filled_c[i][j])
                // Extraction from packet successfull
            else
                // Extraction from packet not successfull

        }
    }
    return packet;
}



main
{
//..
sf::Packet send_packet;
sf::Packet receive_packet;
Network_Tetris_Packet tet_packet;

// Pack game data into packet
send_packet << tet_packet;

// Send game data to peer
status = Client.Send(send_packet,peer_ipAddress,outPort);
send_packet.Clear();

// Receive game data packet from peer
status = Client.Receive(receive_packet,dumb_address);

// Unpack game data from received packet
receive_packet >> tet_packet2;
receive_packet.Clear();

//..
}
