socklib

Socket library for C++ and Win32.

Features

• Easy: Build the library, include acesock.h and link socklib.lib to your project, or add the library files to your project include acesock.h, link Ws2_32.lib and Mswsock.lib and run.

Import:

#include <acesock.h>

Namespace

using namespace ace;

Usecase

• Socklib wraps the code for the server and client using virtual functions.

#include <acesock.h>
#include <stdio.h>

#define TIMEOUT_MS 16

int main(void) {
	if (ace::SockInit() == ACE_SOCK_OK) { // Init the socket data.
		ace::ServerSocket server;
		if (server.start(8080) != ACE_SOCK_OK) {
			return -1;
		}
		ace::ClientSocket client;
		if (client.connect("127.0.0.1", 8080) != ACE_SOCK_OK) {
			return -1;
		}
		client.send_s("greetings from client!");
		while (server.poll(TIMEOUT_MS) == ACE_SOCK_OK && client.poll(TIMEOUT_MS) == ACE_SOCK_OK) {
			while (server.has_messages()) {
				ace::ServerSocket::Message msg = server.get_message();
				printf("[server] received %zu bytes '%s' from '%s'.\n", msg.message.size(), (const char *)msg.message.data(), msg.sender.name().c_str());
				server.send_s(msg.sender, "greetings from server!");
			}
			while (client.has_messages()) {
				ace::ClientSocket::Message msg = client.get_message();
				printf("[client] received %zu bytes '%s'.\n", msg.size(), msg.data());
				client.send_s("greetings from client!");
			}
		}
		ace::SockQuit(); // Cleanup the socket data.
	}
	return 0;
}

TODO :

• Add more configurations.
