I've used Flash Media Server to create multiplayer flash games, but the cost of deploying a FMS application seems rather high. Are there good alternatives, open source or not, that I should look into to mimic the same functionality? I'm specifically looking at using FMS for the aspect of synching game-play state between users running t...
Hi, Does a simple socket server exists that sends any message I want to send to all clients? I need to do this to test a socket client. And FAFAIK Putty can't do this. Thanks, Myth ...
If I kill the Socket Server process, my Socket client process does not receive any errors, it continues to loop forever on the following code: public void run() { while(readData) { String inputLine = null; try { while((inputLine = m_inputStream.readLine()) != null) { //do stuff } } catch (...
Here are some task details: The key functionality of service is Java socket-server (based on Red5. I know it might be overkill, but it makes me confident in future) on unix-platform (FreeBSD or Linux Debian, but I suppose, that the last one). Service deals with quite a lot of simple data.

Anyone have any idea of what...

Hi, What's an example of a simple handshake between a php socket server and flash? A test I can run command line would be ideal, since I don't have a server for this experiment. I'm need a good example that's easy, and something I can run off my laptop without internet:) Thanks FLASH CLIENT //SOCKET CLIENT IN FLASH AS3 var xmlSoc=ne...
Hi so I'm trying to lurn how to make a chat with a socket server. I noticed everybody uses the same code (ripoff from the zend developer zone). The problem is no one really explains how it works. Especially the cryptic code after while(true) { . This would benefit many so i hope someone could take the time and explain the code in de...
Hi! I wanted to create a web chat. It was suggested that i use Php Socket Servers. I've made one and they function well with a telnet client. What i find myself bamboozled by is how to get that data to the client via ajax (no page refreshes). All I can come up with is calling a php file with ajax, getting the data and updating the page....
