I am using the Socket class to send a text message to a remote server via the Send() method.
The text I am sending is has no breaks:
"The|string|that|is|being|sent|"
but the remote server receives it as
"The|st"
""
"ring|t"
""
"hat|is"
""
"|being"
""
"|sent|"
Is there a setting on the Socket class that can prevent this?
This is normal behavior for TCP (which I assume you’re using) – you have no real control on how packets get fragmented, it only guarantees that packets are delivered in the same order.
Usually applications send a termination character (a newline character, for instance) to indicate one message was sent, and new data belongs to the next message.
I wonder where you get those empty strings from – as a message of 0 bytes indicates the other side wants to close the connection.
