Eh I'm getting too lazy to write anymore but basically:
* You should really stop using 'switch-case' for network data and use delegates or a reactor pattern instead.
* Really should get a mod to move this thread to developments.

I had other things in mind but my A.D.D. seems to be horrible.

Is there any reason for this other then it looks "nicer"? I don't understand how something like that would cause anything but more un-needed CPU instructions...

It's just not practical for this project.



Edit: Also, for some reason I can't seem to edit the title of the thread any more D:

wow dats awesome news, habbo on linux ubuntu... who would of thought. well when your a bit further in this project, may i post this into my linux listings?

[Scresho]

Now I need and loader maker, or an prehosted one ..

YAAAAYYY <3

Hello. I've seen your server and I was wondering if you would like my hotel (ZapHotel.net) to sponsor you? Includes 24/7 hosting of your test-server.

"The reactor design pattern is an event handling pattern for handling service requests delivered concurrently to a service handler by one or more inputs. The service handler then demultiplexes the incoming requests and dispatches them synchronously to the associated request handlers."

It's basically a concurrency design thing in simple words.

Stop trying to steal and rip people's emulators.. You tried to do it to Alex && PeHump, now you're trying to do it to this guy!

What you're suggesting we can't really implement right now, I understand where you're coming from but it seems like you don't have a full grasp on how we've implemented most of the client and packet handling so far, or even how C++ code works to an extent...

I don't know how much C++ you know, or if you understand Qt's Signal/Slot system, so I don't want to waste my time explaining how everything works right now, but don't worry because we're optimizing sections of the code as we go. Right now the main goal is to get everything implemented!

Thanks for your suggestion tho.

Thanks for this. Greatly appreciated

Hey all, Just wanted to let you guys know: I'm leaving to go camping today, so development will be halted for about a week. I plan on resuming when I get back. :)

You may receive an update from Ktae while I'm gone though.

[NeonCrayonz]

This is made in QT? Wow!

[Ktae]

I'm actually going to be developing my SWF Resource Editor full time for the next 3 or so days, so unfortunately there won't be any server updates for a while. Feel free to checkout my resource editor in the meantime, I'm taking feature requests right now.

Good Job :P

Hey everyone, I'm back from camping and development will now resume.

I'm starting to implement the flash (r63) protocol, but I've hit an odd problem very early on. I've also almost finished implementing room search, then I'm moving on to private room categories.

The issue I'm having with the Flash client is nothing happens after I send the cross-domain policy. I remember there being some sort of weird disconnect-reconnect thing when I was programming my Java connection API, but I can't seem to figure out how it actually works. I've looked through the Uber source, and it doesn't seem to be doing anything special here.

Here is the current source of flashclient.cpp, it should give you a look into the problem:

#include "flashclient.h"
#include <QTcpSocket>

FlashClient::FlashClient(QObject *parent, QTcpSocket* sock) :
QObject(parent) {
    socket = sock;
    socket->setParent(this); // change the parent so when this client is detroyed, the socket goes with it
    connect(sock, SIGNAL(readyRead()), this, SLOT(gotPacket()));
    connect(sock, SIGNAL(disconnected()), this, SLOT(deleteLater()));
}


void FlashClient::gotPacket() {
    buffer += socket->read(socket->bytesAvailable());

    //qDebug() << "CLIENT->SERVER: " << packet << "\n";
    printf("FLC: %s\n", QString(buffer).toStdString().c_str());
    if(buffer.at(0) == '<'){
        QString CDMP = QString("<?xml version=\"1.0\"?>\r\n<!DOCTYPE cross-domain-policy SYSTEM \"http://www.macromedia.com/xml/dtds/cross-domain-policy.dtd\"><cross-domain-policy>\r\n<allow-access-from domain=\"*\"/>\r\n</cross-domain-policy>\r\n\001");
        socket->write(CDMP.toStdString().c_str());
        socket->flush();
        //socket->close(); // disconnecting the client doesn't help
        printf("Sent policy file!\n");
    }
    
}  

The client requests the policy file, the server sends it, then nothing.

If anyone knows anything about how the flash client handles the cross-domain policy crap, let me know!
