hello

I have a appllication that is sending data packets to a specifyc ip AND port: 3333

Each line that is sending is like a string that contains intructions.

What i want to do it to make GStudio read and show me what string is recieving by that port with that Ip..

is this very hard to code?
I really need this.

I'm gonna give it a wild guess and say you will need to write a plugin to link the two together. The level of difficulty would depend on your understanding of whatever language you use.

well the application send text sentence over and over, with values
And i want GS to read that string to i can work later with the values..

really need a plugin? i do little C++

u can also save it to a file and import it that way but i imagin that will slow it down alot

But isn't this a UDP socket question? does gs work with UDP ports and TCP IP?..?

The only way I know of going straight to your application would be a DLL. If you don't want to use a DLL the save the info to a file . I know it's a pain in the ass but that's what we all have to do

ok thanks.. anyway saving is too slow for a realtime application

i want 3gs to connect to a server just that.... socket connection more specificaly

do you have any protocol defintion or a sample app to check ?

Well i will explain me better:

I have a c++ program running. That program is sending socket packets as strings, like:

New point:5.2
New point:5.1
New point:5.6
New point:2.4

(...)
So it sends to a port (3000) ip: 127.0.0.1

Now.. i need Gs to read that messages.. and update a 3dSG string that will be the flow of messages from the server.
