Hi Matt,
MM> I send a simple message "Hi"
MM> i have to do 2 reads on the recieving port, which returns 72 and 105 - both
MM> integers. So my question is then, why do I get integers instead of binary
MM> data, and if I need to deal with integers and somehow convert them to
MM> characters, how do I know when to stop reading from the recieving port?
If you could post the code, that would help a lot. There's no way to
know how you're doing it otherwise. :) You should just be able to do a
COPY on the port (returns NONE when all data has been read). If you're
in no-wait mode, you just keep appending data to a buffer until you
get an empty string back, which indicates no more data is available.
