sending array over tcp

[Yeik]

]If i have two scripts can i do something like

In my experiments i haven't been able to get it to work. would it be better just to send like a beginning line with how big the array is then send each array element individually

or do _arraytostring() function to send it all in one lump, assuming each is a string of course.

$tarray[3]=[1,2,3]
TCPSend($ConnectedSocket, $tarray)

I would use a Arraytostring while sending, and use some non-typical delimeter, like }@#^{ (to avoid using it in text) and after TCPrecv use a StringSplit and give }@#^{ as a delimeter Fast, easy and logical Is'nt it? I hope it helped you a little bit. Cheers.

That is what i was thinking of doing maybe something even more like ¿¡ that im sure i will never use in any of my code. or strings. I just didn't know if there was an easier way.

You can also for example use a loop like

but its much dirty and messy, as I now think ArrayToString is simpliest way (but I'll think about it)

dim $example_array[3]=["abc","123","zxc"]
send_array($example_array)
func send_array($arr)
    for $i=0 to UBound($arr)-1
        TCPSend($mainsocket,"arr["&$i&"]>"&$arr[$i])
    Next
    Return 1
endfunc
