Hello.
I really like SFML however it seems like it lacks one very important feature - cross-platform setsockopt() equivalent like boost::asio has, or more simply - the only thing that 99% people use that function for - setting TCP_NODELAY (or setting TCP_DELAY to false, well, basically disabling that annoying for games Nagle's algorith).
In Windows on pure sockets you can do it for example that way (there are better ways I think, it's just random code I found that does it):
int opt = -1;
if (setsockopt(sock_fd, IPPROTO_TCP, TCP_NODELAY, (char *)&opt, sizeof(opt)))
printf("Error disabling Nagle's algorithm.\n");
However it would be much nicer is SFML had cross-platform simple function to disable TCP_DELAY on tcp socket. Some libraries I saw just have that simple function, however I like SFML much more and I'd like to use it. Unfortunatelly, SFML doesn't have option to set socket option, nor it has simple function to set TCP_NODELAY. For a bit faster game turning that delay off really helps and allows you not to mess with UDP.
How can I achieve it in SFML? I want cross platform code, because my server is linux, and game is for windows.
Thanks in advance!
