IM client

[theguy0000]

ok, so, ill try to explain this the best i can...

I have a client based off of AutoItSmith's beta server. When the client recieves the message "[ip],CWM_MSG_RECV,[from] [message]" from the server, it should:

1.check wether there is an existing converstation with [from]

2.if yes, update the text box, adding [message]

3.if no, create a new tab where the text box containing the conversation, and a text box to type messages is. in the newly created conversation, put [message] in there.

how would I do this?

(each conversation should be in a new tab in the same gui window)

#include <GuiConstants.au3>
#include <GuiEdit.au3>
#include <Misc.au3>
Global $MainUser
Global $Server = "70.173.62.34"
Global $Port = 44844
TCPStartup()
$MainSocket = TCPConnect($Server, $Port)
If $MainSocket = -1 Then Exit MsgBox(16, "CodeWiz Messenger", "Could Not Connect or Bad Connection. Click OK to exit.")
GUICreate("CodeWiz Messenger", 390, 210)
$Send = GUICtrlCreateEdit("", 10, 10, 175, 150, $WS_VSCROLL)
Local $History = GUICtrlCreateEdit("Server Messages:", 200, 10, 175, 150, BitOR($WS_VSCROLL, $ES_READONLY))
$SButton = GUICtrlCreateButton("Send", 145, 165, 100, 35)
$exit = GUICtrlCreateButton("Disconnect", 270, 165, 150, 35)

        $TCPSent = TCPSend($MainSocket, $Text)
        GUICtrlSetData($Send, "")
    ElseIf $msg = $exit Then
        If MsgBox ( 36, "Disconnect", "Are you sure you want to quit?") = 6 Then Exit
    EndIf
    $Recv = TCPRecv($MainSocket, 512)
    If $Recv <> "" Then
        GUICtrlSetData($History, GUICtrlRead($History) & @CRLF & $Recv)

Which version of the server are you using, my Optimized Server, ITS Exp, ITS File-Based 0.5-0.8.1 or Unreleased ITS Internal 0.9?

[theguy0000]

uhh...the one that you can type autoit commands in the client and the server would do them..

edit: http://www.autoitscript.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=19468

but as you can obviously see, i changed it a lot. yours is the base.

edit2: also, in each tab, one for each active conversation, the messenger should know which person to send it to depending on which tab it's in.

edit3: here is the server

server_0.0.1_ALPHA.au3

Then simply arrange it in an array form, create $Tab1 for $ConnectedSocket[1] and So on, and if $msg = $Tab1 TCPSend($ConnectedSocket[1], $Data)

ah! thanks!

edit: but i need inactive users to not have tabs...

edit2: nvm. i got it. thanks!.
