Re: Sending udp data to another network device...

I Googled "freebasic network.bi" and found only forum posts and nothing really obvious. So I read into a bunch of the threads and noticed it there. It was a tough one. Yea, there isnt much about there on google about it, and with the search function effectively broken on this forum for sh...

Re: udp networking in freebasic.

Yea im an bright and didn't read the post properly. What are those "FD" commands? I ended up using an SDL example that worked perfectly, but it involves having to have the SDL dlls. As well, never seen the timeout command either. A few more comments would help a lot! The network.bi would w...

Re: Sending udp data to another network device...

In this thread Boromir posts code called network.bi. I am not sure it is the one you are looking for but it seems to be. Use Google to search for forum posts unless you need the advanced search options. Edit: I just noticed that you posted your request in the very thread I linked here. Did you not ...

Re: Sending udp data to another network device...

I cant find network.bi to download. I spent an hour on google trying to find the location of network.bi, as that would have suited me perfectly.

no luck though, i ended up using the SDL example.

Oh and you cant search for network.bi on the forums! as .bi is too short a term!

Re: Sending udp data to another network device...

Well, some good news. I used the SDL example and now can send specific data across the network to my arduino, and have it display on the serial console window.

Would anyone be interested in what code i ended up using?

Sending udp data to another network device...

Trying to find a simple way to send UDP packet data to an arduino on the network that has an ethernet interface. Whats incredibly infuriating is that the search function ignores short words! Not only that, but a few examples use network.bi which i cant find ANYWHERE. I just want to send a bit of pac...

Re: Error with dir(filespec, attrib)

Thank you! I will try that out and see if it works on my code. My program allows you to treat filenames as text, so if you need to mass rename a set of files, for example include a new character, or change a certain set of characters, or even search and replace, it can do all the changes on the file...

Re: Error with dir(filespec, attrib)

But the issue isnt that im missing information, its just that its actually providing too MUCH information and returning files as both files AND folders.

So its not an exclusion issue, its actually thinking files are also folders.

Re: Error with dir(filespec, attrib)

wait. i did some more investigation. It doesnt do it if the mapped drive is mapped from a WINDOWS share but if the mapped drive is mapped from a FREENAS share (samba) it does that weird behaviour. Looks like its a bug with samba. fantastic! It however does work fine with windows explorer, so maybe f...

Thanks for that. You are using opengl to do it. Do you know how to do it in a normal fbgraphics window? I am doing all the basic stuff first in a normal graphics window using wireframe display lists, then simply transporting that into ogl.. im still working on the simple movement and rotations and t...

Asking you as a coder, how did you keep the mouse grabbed and use it for input?
Having issues with that at the moment.

Return the Fractional part of a number

I need the opposite of int... I need to get the fraction part of a number, like everything after the decimal point. For example. Given 5.123 It returns ".123" Is there a function that does that already? I am looking in the help file. I hacked a function together that uses mod, but its not ...
