Network Error
« on: Jun 8th, 2003, 5:58am »

When running a network server on OSX, if you close the sketch and then try to run it again it gives a network error and closes the server. Since there is no way to know when the user closes the sketch, is there a way to close the connection so that P5 can run a net sketch more than once?
 
on a side note, is it possible to netWrite just before a user closes an applet? It would be useful because otherwise how does the server know the user logged off?
 
also, I don't think that netEvent() works in server mode, which is pretty essential.

all noted. will look into 'em. the first two are common problems that we've already worked around for serial so it shouldn't be a big deal for net. the last one just sounds like a random bug.

I think I was having a similar problem trying to implement some network stuff.  Firstly I found that if I closed my server application (run from within the sketchbook) before calling endNet() then I wouldn't be able to start a server using the same instance of processing again, but if I called endNet() this was not an issue.
 
In response to calling code when the user closes the applet, I found that you can override the stop() method (which is inherited from the Applet class) like so:
 
public void stop(){
  // Code to be executed on exit goes here
}
 
the public is important otherwise you get an error about overriding with a more restrictive method.  Hope this is some help to somebody.

this should be fixed in version 58 which was released yesterday. let us know if you're still having the same problem with this new release.

If I have a have a client app that doesn't call endNet() before closing, it hangs processing, and I have to kill javaw.exe from the process list.
 
I tried putting endNet() in public void stop() as suggested, but it still hangs.

yup, net is having a lotta trouble. i hope to get it repaired soon, or maybe its author (hernando) will have some time to look into it.
