I’m trying to find a good-working combination of tcpserver and tcpclient for the 64 bit version of Pure Data on macos, windows and linux in order to send fudi messages between the different clients via the server.
I started with maxlib but found that tcpserver and tcpclient are not part of the distribution anymore and in the old v0-0 distribution they are partially 32 bit. I contacted Fred Jan and he directed me to the mrpeach and iemnet libraries since they are maintained and further developed.
It seems that objects from the mrpeach library give me trouble (crashing) (especially on windows) although this needs further testing on my side.
As a strategy I would like to compare them to tcpserver and tcpclient in iemnet. My problem is that iemnet/tcpclient outputs the the received messages as bytes in individual messages instead of a list. Tcpserver however does output the received messages as list. I would like to further process the output of tcpclient with fudiparse and am looking for a good way to do this that is also light on the cpu.
Best regards!
