BlitzMax/Modules/Vertex/BNetEx

BNetEx is a network module made by Vertex. It's Open Source, object-oriented and supports both TCP and UDP. New versions are announced in this thread: Data Structures TNetwork Functions GetHostIP Signature GetHostIP:Int(HostName:String) Returns the IP address of the given host Example int_ip:Int = TNetwork.GetHostIP("www.blitzbasic.com") Print TNetwork.StringIP(int_ip) GetHostIPs Signature GetHostIPs:Int[](HostName:String) A host may have several addresses at once which can be found out by this function Example Local int_ip:Int[] = TNetwork.GetHostIPs("www.google.com") For Local i:Int = EachIn int_ip Print TNetwork.StringIP(i) Next GetHostName Signature GetHostName:String(HostIp:Int) Returns a given host's name Example Print "The local PC's name is: " + TNetwork.getHostName(TNetwork.IntIP("127.0.0.1")) StringIP Signature StringIP:String(IP:Int) Converts an integer IP into a string IP (also known as "dotted IP") Example int_ip:Int = TNetwork.GetHostIP("www.blitzbasic.com") Print TNetwork.StringIP(int_ip) IntIP Signature IntIP:Int(IP:String) Converts a string IP into an integer IP Example Print "The local PC's name is: " + TNetwork.getHostName(TNetwork.IntIP("127.0.0.1")) TNetStream TNetStream extends TStream, therefore the usual write/read operations may be used on it. It contains all methods that can be used regardless of the protocol being used (TCP/UDP)
