How to get wxSocketBase input data size? Topic is solved

[DanRR]

Hello,

I want to use wxSocketServer to receive bindery data.
wxSocketBase::Read function may get me null-terminated data string, but how do I get the size of binary data (that may contain zeros)?
Is my only option is using something like this?:

Code: Select all

while(sock->IsData())
	sock->Read(buf[len++], 1);

sizeof()?

Thanks but I didn't get it, sizeof what?
You should supply your buffer and its size to wxSocketBase::Read(). you can get the whole buffer at one shot if you know the socket's received data size, so my question was how to get this size, when dealing with binary data.

Thanks but I didn't get it, sizeof what?

Code: Select all

sizeof(binData);

SizeOf().

Code: Select all

while(sock && sock->IsData()){ // Don't call a member of a pointer if the pointer isn't valid
	sock->Read(buf, sizeof(buf));  // Read in bytes upto the size of buffer
	wxUint32 bytesRead = sock->LastCount();  // How many bytes were read in.
}

Thanks!
For some reason, I missed that LastCount()
