awesome, I'll take a look.
I'd like to see how it works, too. Open Source FTW! :)

My programs don't have bugs, they're called randomly added features.

Me I would use boost library and the serialize class that makes it simple
to
turn a structure or class into an xml structure and extract it on the
other
end.

Hello list,
I've got a question. I've been working on a program, and I have a document
that explains the protocol and how things work.
It's about 20 pages so far, but it'll probably get revised to be shorter
once I start doing the actual work and seeing whether things will work.
My question is this:
I'm working with a structure that looks something like:
struct packet
{
MessageType mtype;
int DataLength;
char* data;
};
How would I go about serializing that so that it'll go across the stream?
I'll need to memcpy the data I'm thinking, no?
I'm also looking at encryption; I need to find some sort of way to let the
client encrypt with the host, without a predefined key; the only way I can
think of is for the host to build a random key, but then it'd have to send
it cleartext to the client, which is rather counterproductive.
Thanks,
