Re: how to control segmented messages in TCP chat client

[Athanasius]

Hello thanos1983,

This is not an answer to your question, just an observation on one part of the code.

In Client.pl there is a subroutine sub receive which references $_[0], i.e. the first argument passed into the sub. This subroutine is called three times within Client.pl, each time like this:

$receive_msg = receive()

with no arguments passed in. So $_[0] is in all cases uninitialised, and the sub call accomplishes nothing.

Hope that helps,

Hello Athanasius,

Thank you for the observation, I was modifying the code earlier from a previous version and this part I forgot to change. :D

But maybe is also the source of some other problems that I had. You gave me food for thought. I need to experiment more with code, maybe I am able to figure out the problem.

Again thank you for your time and effort to assist me.
