Send objects with winsock.....

[strandstrumpa]

I'm having a hard time solving a problem here:
The problem:

I have a server on which there is a list of linked objects.
I have a certain number of client, on which I want to download this list of object, change the list on the client, then upload the list back to the Server.

I have tried winsock, but it doesn't seem to support sending userdefined objects?

How can I solve this? Do I really have to translate the whole list of object to a string, load it, and the transfer back?

Thanks for helping!

Yes, a string, but more specifically, an XML document (which is a string). You can then use the MSXML parser on the client & server to traverse the document like a database. This might be the best solution in this scenario
