Chat program

Hi Sam,
I am in the process of completing the bindings so that Delphi, Kylix
and the Free Pascal Compiler ( and the OSs they support ) can use the
SDL_Net library.

In order to test the library I just needed to confirm that the files
chatd.c and chat.h act as both the chat client and the chat server.
Is this correct or am I missing something?

Sincerely,

No, the client is in chat.cpp, and requires the GUI library.
Check out the README.
The chat client/server are just stupid tests to make sure the
library works. They’re probably not worth porting in and of themselves.

Thanks for the response. Can you suggest any other demos that make use
of the SDL_Net library that would be worth porting so that
Delphi/Kylix/FPC users have a small example to get them started.

Maelstrom 3.0.4, which I’ll release soon. I was going to rewrite the
networking, but it’ll take a while, so I’ll probably release what I
have now to the general public, since it’s quite a bit better with
SDL 1.2.0

Oh, it’s not really a small example, but it’s a lot of fun. :slight_smile:
