client side:
address_book.SerializeToString(&mystr)
strncpy(buf, mystr.c_str(), strlen(mystr.c_str()));
sendto(socket, buf, ....)
server side:
recvfrom(socket, buf, ....)
mystr.assign(buf, strlen(buf));
if (address_book.ParseFromString(mystr) == false)
{
print "deserialization failed"
}
I get deserialization failed all the time, but get the message correctly though.
Maybe this method is not the right way to send string across socket.
I tried using SerializeToFileDescriptor(socket), that worked on the
client side, but on the server side, i never get the message with UDP sockets.
is there a better way of sending data across network?
thanks,
