UDP is my last choice. For some basic path-planning, I will need to ensure that all the requests complete in a structured order!
I guess that if I can implement NetworkTables on the coprocessor, that would make things extremely simple! However, I don't think NetTables were built to be as portable as I want them to be!  |
What dont you understand about the Packet class?
write data to the PacketOutputStream and send it to the server..
found this in the SocketConnection class (which seems to be the well documented class around packets and sockets)
Code:
SocketConnection sc = (SocketConnection)
Connector.open("socket://host.com:79");
sc.setSocketOption(SocketConnection.LINGER, 5);
InputStream is = sc.openInputStream(); OutputStream os =
sc.openOutputStream();
os.write("\r\n".getBytes()); int ch = 0; while(ch != -1) { ch = is.read(); }
is.close(); os.close(); sc.close();
