Does anyone have any suggestions how I might handle data of unknown length
A simple novice in handlng data posted through a socket, my experience of
receiving data either involves knowing upfront how many bytes of data to
expect or interrogating some part of the first part of the buffer for a
number to tell me how much to expect.
I am expecting a third party to post data through to my listener but as yet
cannot get a reasonable answer regarding length or termination character.
I will be using NetIPC/Cobol (ought to use Berkley/C for portability but I
may not have the time to work out)
PS Rubbish cheap keyboard so forgive any typos.
TIA
