how to request data from IRC protocol ?

[comeonbaby]

At first im sorry about my bad English.

I have got code:

Global $sock = _IRCConnect($server, $port, $nick); Connects to IRC and Identifies its Nickname

While 1
    Local $run
    local $strtmp
    $recv = TCPRecv($sock, 8192); Recieve things from server
    If @error Then $sock = _IRCConnect($server, $port, $nick); If you can not recieve then the server must have died.
    Local $sData = StringSplit($recv, @CRLF); Splits the messages, sometimes the server groups them
    For $i = 1 To $sData[0] Step 1; Does each message seperately
        Local $sTemp = StringSplit($sData[$i], " "); Splits the message by spaces
        If $sTemp[1] = "" Then ContinueLoop; If its empty, Continue!
        If $sTemp[1] = "PING" Then TCPSend($sock, "PONG " & $sTemp[2] & @CRLF); Checks for PING replys (There smaller then usual messages so its special!
        If $sTemp[0] <= 2 Then ContinueLoop; Useless messages for the most part
        Switch $sTemp[2]; Splits the command msg

I get it from my friend. But i dont understand about statement:

If $sTemp[1] = "PING" Then TCPSend($sock, "PONG " & $sTemp[2] & @CRLF);

Here why can we know $sTemp[1] have got data for "PING" ??? I have read about IRC Protocol and flow-chart but dont get any information about it.I try to use TCPRecv() to recive data from IRC but cant look for data have got statement : "PING". I know PING is a statement that server send to client to request client live or die.But why i cant find it out in data sended from server ?

Can everybody tell me ? Thanks in advance!!

Hi there

Reading the code you posted, PING is not a command but a value inside $recv.

$recv is splitted (removing end of lines with carrier) to array $data.

Every element in array $data[$i] is splitted by removing spaces.

Somewhere in those elements the PING statement is there and if it is "PONG" is send to server.

Global $sock = _IRCConnect($server, $port, $nick); Connects to IRC and Identifies its Nickname

While 1
    Local $run
    local $strtmp
    $recv = TCPRecv($sock, 8192); Recieve things from server
    If @error Then $sock = _IRCConnect($server, $port, $nick); If you can not recieve then the server must have died.
    Local $sData = StringSplit($recv, @CRLF); Splits the messages, sometimes the server groups them
    For $i = 1 To $sData[0] Step 1; Does each message seperately
        Local $sTemp = StringSplit($sData[$i], " "); Splits the message by spaces
        If $sTemp[1] = "" Then ContinueLoop; If its empty, Continue!
        If $sTemp[1] = "PING" Then $iSend = TCPSend($sock, "PONG " & $sTemp[2] & @CRLF); Checks for PING replys (There smaller then usual messages so its special!
            if $iSend > 0 then MsgBox(0, "Send Result", "Success", 4)
            Else
                MsgBox(0, "Send Result", "Failure", 4)
                ContinueLoop
            EndIf
        If $sTemp[0] <= 2 Then ContinueLoop; Useless messages for the most part
        Switch $sTemp[2]; Splits the command msg

Yes i know about how to split it. But server ping for 180 seconds and close connect. And for 180 seconds i recieve data from server AND cant look for any text have got : "PING" . So why that statement able to check its avaiable ?

I see...

And you are sure that the script works with you friend?

Maybe the PING statement is not in that broadcast.

An idea, copy all data to a txt file for a while (at least 180 secs) and then try to find PING.

Cheers
