Re: Implementing Frontend/Backend Protocol TCP/IP

Hello,


As this thread it's alive, I'm going to ask more specific questions:


After sending the satartup sequence, I receive the paramlist. I don't  
need to send Authentication as I'm using a Trust user, for making  
things easier.

I receive string data, I suppose it's text data.

I can parse the data received, search for a B.

I don't know if it's better to transform the data into Hex.

After the S I found thre char(0) and later the size of the packet, and  
later the name + char(0) (separator between value and parameter), the  
parameter, and so on.

Why I found those three char(0) after the S and before the packet  
length?

Or it's because the Int32 that has 4 bytes ?

thanks,

regards,

raimon
