End of DataArrival event

[emeratius]

Is there any nice way to wait for the hole string in DataArrival?

I mean, if I send a string which will raise the DataArrival event twice. Is there any way to see if it's the end of the string?

Good question... I usually just attach something to the start and the end of what I am sending so I know when I the message is done.

wskClient.SendData "||MessageStart||" & Data & "||MessageDone||"

Then on the server I check for the string "||MessageDone||" and if it's there, then I execute whatever.

wskServer.GetData NewData

theData = theData & NewData 'theData is a global variable

If right$(theData,15) = "||MessageDone||" then

'I know I have the entire message so I can do whatever

end if


That darn winsock control needs to be rewritten to be a little bit more user friendly... I have put hours into figuring out how it works and I still don't understand it fully.

I have made a similar thing to determine the end of the transfer. But how nice is it. Not that much.
