Tutorial for Chat box in a lobby with SFML out there?
« on: March 25, 2012, 04:06:01 pm »
I was wondering if anyone had any code they would be willing to share or know if anyone has coded up a nice little lib that one can just use to do simple chatting in a game lobby or chat window in game...  I would assume it would be multi-threaded?

sf::SocketSelector, can I use it to send data also? I am guessing its only for receiving data, but not sure if I can use it for sending data?

Thanks

Sending is not a blocking operation, so selectors are not needed there.
