Hi,
I would like to be able to send and receive some data over the
network. The data size can be very small < 1K. The functionality is
basically to broadcast an application's existence once it starts up
and receive like packets of data from the network from other copies
of the same application. Does this make sense? Can anyone either
describe the necessary steps to do this or direct me to some good
sources of information. I am a novice at network issues.
Will all the copies of the program be running on the same local
network, if so then Bonjour is what you most likely want to use for
applications to notify others of their existence. Establishing the
connection and sending data after that is very easy, so start by
reading the Bonjour documentation.
cheers,
Tom
Thank you,
