* Using ENet
|
|
|
|
Before using ENet, you must call enet_initialize() to initialize the
|
|
library. Upon program exit, you should call enet_deinitialize() so that
|
|
the library may clean up any used resources.
|
|
|
|
i.e.
|
|
|
|
int
|
|
main (int argc, char ** argv)
|
|
{
|
|
if (enet_initialize () != 0)
|
|
{
|
|
fprintf (stderror, "An error occurred while initializing ENet.\n");
|
|
return EXIT_FAILURE;
|
|
}
|
|
atexit (enet_deinitialize);
|
|
...
|
|
...
|
|
...
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
* Creating an ENet server
|
|
|
|
Servers in ENet are constructed with enet_host_create(). You must specify
|
|
an address on which to receive data and new connections, as well as the maximum
|
|
allowable numbers of connected peers. You may optionally specify the incoming
|
|
and outgoing bandwidth of the server in bytes per second so that ENet may try
|
|
to statically manage bandwidth resources among connected peers in addition to
|
|
its dynamic throttling algorithm; specifying 0 for these two options will cause
|
|
ENet to rely entirely upon its dynamic throttling algorithm to manage
|
|
bandwidth.
|
|
|
|
When done with a host, the host may be destroyed with enet_host_destroy().
|
|
All connected peers to the host will be reset, and the resources used by
|
|
the host will be freed.
|
|
|
|
i.e.
|
|
|
|
ENetAddress address;
|
|
ENetHost * server;
|
|
|
|
/* Bind the server to the default localhost.
|
|
* A specific host address can be specified by
|
|
* enet_address_set_host (& address, "x.x.x.x");
|
|
*/
|
|
address.host = ENET_HOST_ANY;
|
|
/* Bind the server to port 1234. */
|
|
address.port = 1234;
|
|
|
|
server = enet_host_create (& address /* the address to bind the server host to */,
|
|
32 /* allow up to 32 clients and/or outgoing connections */,
|
|
0 /* assume any amount of incoming bandwidth */,
|
|
0 /* assume any amount of outgoing bandwidth */);
|
|
if (server == NULL)
|
|
{
|
|
fprintf (stderr,
|
|
"An error occurred while trying to create an ENet server host.\n");
|
|
exit (EXIT_FAILURE);
|
|
}
|
|
...
|
|
...
|
|
...
|
|
enet_host_destroy(server);
|
|
|
|
* Creating an ENet client
|
|
|
|
Clients in ENet are similarly constructed with enet_host_create() when no
|
|
address is specified to bind the host to. Bandwidth may be specified for the
|
|
client host as in the above example. The peer count controls the maximum number
|
|
of connections to other server hosts that may be simultaneously open.
|
|
|
|
i.e.
|
|
|
|
ENetHost * client;
|
|
|
|
clienet = enet_host_create (NULL /* create a client host */,
|
|
1 /* only allow 1 outgoing connection */,
|
|
57600 / 8 /* 56K modem with 56 Kbps downstream bandwidth */,
|
|
14400 / 8 /* 56K modem with 14 Kbps upstream bandwidth */);
|
|
|
|
if (client == NULL)
|
|
{
|
|
fprintf (stderr,
|
|
"An error occurred while trying to create an ENet client host.\n");
|
|
exit (EXIT_FAILURE);
|
|
}
|
|
...
|
|
...
|
|
...
|
|
enet_host_destroy(client);
|
|
|
|
* Managing an ENet host
|
|
|
|
ENet uses a polled event model to notify the programmer of significant
|
|
events. ENet hosts are polled for events with enet_host_service(), where an
|
|
optional timeout value in milliseconds may be specified to control how long
|
|
ENet will poll; if a timeout of 0 is specified, enet_host_service() will
|
|
return immediately if there are no events to dispatch. enet_host_service()
|
|
will return 1 if an event was dispatched within the specified timeout.
|
|
|
|
Currently there are only four types of significant events in ENet:
|
|
|
|
An event of type ENET_EVENT_TYPE_NONE is returned if no event occurred
|
|
within the specified time limit. enet_host_service() will return 0
|
|
with this event.
|
|
|
|
An event of type ENET_EVENT_TYPE_CONNECT is returned when either a new client
|
|
host has connected to the server host or when an attempt to establish a
|
|
connection with a foreign host has succeeded. Only the "peer" field of the
|
|
event structure is valid for this event and contains the newly connected peer.
|
|
|
|
An event of type ENET_EVENT_TYPE_RECEIVE is returned when a packet is received
|
|
from a connected peer. The "peer" field contains the peer the packet was
|
|
received from, "channelID" is the channel on which the packet was sent, and
|
|
"packet" is the packet that was sent. The packet contained in the "packet"
|
|
field must be destroyed with enet_packet_destroy() when you are done
|
|
inspecting its contents.
|
|
|
|
An event of type ENET_EVENT_TYPE_DISCONNECT is returned when a connected peer
|
|
has either explicitly disconnected or timed out. Only the "peer" field of the
|
|
event structure is valid for this event and contains the peer that
|
|
disconnected. Only the "data" field of the peer is still valid on a
|
|
disconnect event and must be explicitly reset.
|
|
|
|
i.e.
|
|
|
|
ENetEvent event;
|
|
|
|
/* Wait up to 1000 milliseconds for an event. */
|
|
while (enet_host_service (client, & event, 1000) > 0)
|
|
{
|
|
switch (event.type)
|
|
{
|
|
case ENET_EVENT_TYPE_CONNECT:
|
|
printf ("A new client connected from %x:%u.\n",
|
|
event.peer -> address.host,
|
|
event.peer -> address.port);
|
|
|
|
/* Store any relevant client information here. */
|
|
event.peer -> data = "Client information";
|
|
|
|
break;
|
|
|
|
case ENET_EVENT_TYPE_RECEIVE:
|
|
printf ("A packet of length %u containing %s was received from %s on channel %u.\n",
|
|
event.packet -> dataLength,
|
|
event.packet -> data,
|
|
event.peer -> data,
|
|
event.channelID);
|
|
|
|
/* Clean up the packet now that we're done using it. */
|
|
enet_packet_destroy (event.packet);
|
|
|
|
break;
|
|
|
|
case ENET_EVENT_TYPE_DISCONNECT:
|
|
printf ("%s disconected.\n", event.peer -> data);
|
|
|
|
/* Reset the peer's client information. */
|
|
|
|
event.peer -> data = NULL;
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
...
|
|
...
|
|
...
|
|
|
|
* Sending a packet to an ENet peer
|
|
|
|
Packets in ENet are created with enet_packet_create(), where the size of
|
|
the packet must be specified. Optionally, initial data may be specified to
|
|
copy into the packet.
|
|
|
|
Certain flags may also be supplied to enet_packet_create() to control
|
|
various packet features:
|
|
|
|
ENET_PACKET_FLAG_RELIABLE specifies that the packet must use reliable delivery.
|
|
A reliable packet is guarenteed to be delivered, and a number of retry attempts
|
|
will be made until an acknowledgement is received from the foreign host the
|
|
packet is sent to. If a certain number of retry attempts is reached without
|
|
any acknowledgement, ENet will assume the peer has disconnected and forcefully
|
|
reset the connection. If this flag is not specified, the packet is assumed
|
|
an unreliable packet, and no retry attempts will be made nor acknowledgements
|
|
generated.
|
|
|
|
A packet may be resized (extended or truncated) with enet_packet_resize().
|
|
|
|
A packet is sent to a foreign host with enet_peer_send(). enet_peer_send()
|
|
accepts a channel id over which to send the packet to a given peer. Once the
|
|
packet is handed over to ENet with enet_peer_send(), ENet will handle its
|
|
deallocation and enet_packet_destroy() should not be used upon it.
|
|
|
|
One may also use enet_host_broadcast() to send a packet to all connected
|
|
peers on a given host over a specified channel id, as with enet_peer_send().
|
|
|
|
Queued packets will be sent on a call to enet_host_service().
|
|
Alternatively, enet_host_flush() will send out queued packets without
|
|
dispatching any events.
|
|
|
|
i.e.
|
|
|
|
/* Create a reliable packet of size 7 containing "packet\0" */
|
|
ENetPacket * packet = enet_packet_create ("packet",
|
|
strlen ("packet") + 1,
|
|
ENET_PACKET_FLAG_RELIABLE);
|
|
|
|
/* Extend the packet so and append the string "foo", so it now
|
|
* contains "packetfoo\0"
|
|
*
|
|
enet_packet_resize (packet, strlen ("packetfoo") + 1);
|
|
strcpy (& packet -> data [strlen ("packet")], "foo");
|
|
|
|
/* Send the packet to the peer over channel id 3.
|
|
* One could also broadcast the packet by
|
|
* enet_host_broadcast (host, 3, packet);
|
|
*/
|
|
enet_peer_send (peer, 3, packet);
|
|
...
|
|
...
|
|
...
|
|
/* One could just use enet_host_service() instead. */
|
|
enet_host_flush (host);
|
|
|
|
* Disconnecting an ENet peer
|
|
|
|
Peers may be gently disconnected with enet_peer_disconnect(). A disconnect
|
|
request will be sent to the foreign host, and ENet will wait for an
|
|
acknowledgement from the foreign host before finally disconnecting. An
|
|
event of type ENET_EVENT_TYPE_DISCONNECT will be generated once the
|
|
disconnection succeeds. Normally timeouts apply to the disconnect
|
|
acknowledgement, and so if no acknowledgement is received after a length
|
|
of time the peer will be forcefully disconnected.
|
|
|
|
enet_peer_reset() will forcefully disconnect a peer. The foreign host
|
|
will get no notification of a disconnect and will time out on the foreign
|
|
host. No event is generated.
|
|
|
|
i.e.
|
|
ENetEvent event;
|
|
|
|
enet_peer_disconnect (& client -> peers [0], 0);
|
|
|
|
/* Allow up to 3 seconds for the disconnect to succeed
|
|
* and drop any packets received packets.
|
|
*/
|
|
while (enet_host_service (client, & event, 3000) > 0)
|
|
{
|
|
switch (event.type)
|
|
{
|
|
case ENET_EVENT_TYPE_RECEIVE:
|
|
enet_packet_destroy (event.packet);
|
|
break;
|
|
|
|
case ENET_EVENT_TYPE_DISCONNECT:
|
|
puts ("Disconnection succeeded.");
|
|
return;
|
|
...
|
|
...
|
|
...
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
/* We've arrived here, so the disconnect attempt didn't succeed yet.
|
|
* Force the connection down.
|
|
*/
|
|
enet_peer_reset (& client -> peers [0]);
|
|
...
|
|
...
|
|
...
|
|
|
|
* Connecting to an ENet host
|
|
|
|
A connection to a foregin host is initiated with enet_host_connect().
|
|
It accepts the address of a foreign host to connect to, and the number of
|
|
channels that should be allocated for communication. If N channels are
|
|
allocated for use, their channel ids will be numbered 0 through N-1.
|
|
A peer representing the connection attempt is returned, or NULL if there
|
|
were no available peers over which to initiate the connection. When the
|
|
connection attempt succeeds, an event of type ENET_EVENT_TYPE_CONNECT will
|
|
be generated. If the connection attempt times out or otherwise fails, an
|
|
event of type ENET_EVENT_TYPE_DISCONNECT will be generated.
|
|
|
|
i.e.
|
|
ENetAddress address;
|
|
ENetEvent event;
|
|
ENetPeer *peer;
|
|
|
|
/* Connect to some.server.net:1234. */
|
|
enet_address_set_host (& address, "some.server.net");
|
|
address.port = 1234;
|
|
|
|
/* Initiate the connection, allocating the two channels 0 and 1. */
|
|
peer = enet_host_connect (client, & address, 2);
|
|
|
|
if (peer == NULL)
|
|
{
|
|
fprintf (stderr,
|
|
"No available peers for initiating an ENet connection.\n");
|
|
exit (EXIT_FAILURE);
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
/* Wait up to 5 seconds for the connection attempt to succeed.
|
|
if (enet_host_service (client, & event, 5000) > 0 &&
|
|
event.type == ENET_EVENT_TYPE_CONNECT)
|
|
{
|
|
puts ("Connection to some.server.net:1234 succeeded.");
|
|
...
|
|
...
|
|
...
|
|
}
|
|
else
|
|
{
|
|
/* Either the 5 seconds are up or a disconnect event was
|
|
* received. Reset the peer in the event the 5 seconds
|
|
* had run out without any significant event.
|
|
*/
|
|
enet_peer_reset (peer);
|
