Er whoops i meant you're gonna have to change the cin part to the infile stream ;xxx

the function getline(void,char*) getline(cin,cstringthing);

Ok I found the problem I think. My method of accepting users was fine, but my use of the mutex wasn't. Here it is;p declaration HANDLE g_hCreditMutex; while( 1 ) { ServerSocketObject.Listen(); WaitForSingleObject( g_hCreditMutex, INFINITE ); clients += 1; ServerSocketObject.Accept(...

--; Well then how do you do it?

im going to cry:( why doesnt my solution worrrrrrrk? void thrClientsThread( SocketObject *sm ) { // Loop until we are told to quit while( 1 ) { ServerSocketObject.Listen(); WaitForSingleObject( g_hCreditMutex, INFINITE ); clients += 1; ServerSocketObject.Accept( sm[ clients ] )...

Um I know its a simple thing seeing how every single game and program on the internet has to do it so someone would have by now figured out a simple and effecient way to do it. Just because its simple doesn't mean I am obliged to instantly know how to do it. In theory my way would work, but...

Over complicating? But I know it's a simple thing -.- Why can't you guys just show me? lol. It can't be THAT long of code can it?

I was just following this example in this book for learning how to game programming. I don't have any background in online programming. But I have a background in C++ programmming and computer science. I've taking 2 computer programming C++ and 2 years of AP Computer Science. I also program in a...

okay.. does anyone have a thread they can copy paste for me that will accept connections? ;/

Also here is some more information. SocketObject is just a prewritten class I'm using to learn this stuff with It is just the predefined windows SOCKET class with some variability. Here is the code for the functions I use: ----- int SocketObject::Listen( void ) { return listen( skSocket, 32...

Well.. since you obviously see what I'm trying to do.. you got a way for me to do it? ;X Cause this way doesn't seem to work to well. The data isn't being sent to the server. I think... o.o if( ClientSObject.Connect( szServerIP, iServerListenPort ) ) { while (true) { while ( !_kbhit() )...

Well I took your advice and it seems still no one=p I got a new question tho. Does this code even if its in a thread make the program wait for connections and NOT do anything else even when in a thread? void thrClientsThread( SocketObject *sm ) { // Loop until we are told to quit while( 1 )...

Um debugger just goes "eee find the .cpp file!" so there's no help there. Plus this is a server/client program so like yeah I dun think debugger can work on something like that. Section of code I guess that is "relevant": void thrClientsThread( SocketObject *sm ) { //...

erg, can no one help me?

There is a built in "pause" function. It's called sleep. Sleep(miliseconds) so just do Sleep(50); system("cls");
